Chennai Weather Update: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders IPL 2021 Weather Report

The third match of the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will witness a high-spirited affair between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The Eoin Morgan led-side will be looking forward to a memorable season this time after a disappointing run in IPL 2020 as they finished at the fifth position. SRH, on the other hand, reached the semi-final of the previous season but was ruled out after losing against Delhi Capitals.

The toss is expected to play a crucial role as the team winning the toss is likely to field first. There can be a factor of dew in the second innings which can be a reason for worry for the bowling team. The average first innings score in IPL at this stadium is 163 runs and the chasing team has won 53.7% of IPL games at Chepauk.

Also, the Chidambaram stadium hosted the first match between RCB and MI, and the team batting second, Bangalore, won the game.
