In match Match 8 of 13th edition of Indian Premier League (IPL 2020), skipper Dinesh Karthik's tactical nous will once again be put to test when Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) take on a depleted Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi on Saturday.

Once again, the batting position of KKR's biggest hitter Andre Russell became the talking point in 49-run loss to Mumbai Indians.

The Jamaican, who was its highest run-getter last season with 510 runs from 249 deliveries and the tournament's highest strike rate of 204.81, was seen at No 6 but by then the task had become extremely difficult.
