SRH vs PBKS Dream11 prediction: 3 players you can pick as captain or vice-captain for today’s IPL 2024 match – May 19, 2024

On Sunday, SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) will square off with Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the 69th match of the IPL (Indian Premier League) 2024 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.

SunRisers Hyderabad are ranked third in the points table with 15 points and a positive net run rate of +0.406. Their last match against Gujarat Titans was washed out which earned them one point as well as a playoff spot. SRH had beaten PBKS in the reverse fixture in April 2024 and will be eager to grab another win and finish in the top two.

On the other hand, the Punjab Kings defeated Rajasthan Royals in the previous game by five wickets. They are sitting at the ninth position in the points table, eyeing their sixth win and hoping to conclude their campaign on a positive note.

Sam Curran, Kagiso Rabada, Liam Livingstone, Jonny Bairstow, Chris Woakes, and Sikandar Raza have returned to their side. Rilee Rossouw and Nathan Ellis remain the only two overseas players in their lineup. Thus, Jitesh Sharma will lead the side with the likes of Atharva Taide and Rishi Dhawan in their lineup.

On that note, here are the three players you could pick as the captain/vice-captain for the SRH vs PBKS Dream11 match.
