A confident Hyderabad will meet third-placed Kolkata in match 25 of the Indian T20 League 2022 season. The Kane Williamson-led Hyderabad have won back-to-back games after suffering defeats in their opening two games. Meanwhile, Kolkata, outplayed by Delhi in their last outing, have won three out of their five games in the 15th edition.
Here's a look at key Rummy Bo fantasy cricket Match-Ups from the Hyderabad-Kolkata clash.
K Williamson vs S Iyer
An interesting Match-Up is on the cards between the two skippers. Kane Williamson and Shreyas Iyer scored half-centuries in their respective previous games. Shreyas is likely to come up with another impressive knock at Brabourne Stadium, which has produced high-scoring games in the tournament so far.

V Iyer vs Abhishek Sharma
Venkatesh Iyer has struggled to replicate last season's form. He has only managed 97 runs and bowled just 12 balls so far. On the other hand, 21-year-old Abhishek Sharma has let his bat do the talking in the last two games. The Amritsar-born all-rounder might well win this Match-Up.
S Narine vs M Jansen
There is nothing much to separate between Sunil Narine and Marco Jansen. The Kolkata spinner, who has taken four wickets, has registered an economy rate of 4.85. Left-arm pacer Jansen picked up a wicket each in his two games for Hyderabad. With figures of 2/21 in the last game, the West Indian holds the upper hand in this Match-Up.
N Pooran vs A Markram
Hyderabad teammates Nicholas Pooran and Aiden Markram take on each other in this Match-Up. Both players have played a few decent knocks this season. Pooran saw Hyderabad home against Gujarat with an unbeaten 34, while Markram had hit a half-century in the franchise's opening match. The wicket-keeper batter could pip Markram on Friday.
B Kumar vs V Chakaravarthy
Bhuvneshwar Kumar starts as the firm favorite against Kolkata's Varun Chakaravarthy after his impressive performance against Gujarat. The fast bowler removed Shubman Gill in the powerplay and kept Hardik Pandya in check in the death overs. Varun hasn't been able to pick up wickets consistently this season. The mystery spinner has four wickets from five games at an economy rate of 7.30.
