With one win and a defeat, both Sunrisers and Titans are desperately looking for a victory to stay in contention for a semifinal berth.
The two teams are on four points each and a defeat on Saturday would mean that the losing side will be virtually out of the reckoning.
After qualifying into the main draw, the Sunrisers got off to a winning start against Trinidad and Tobago before they were bulldozed by Chennai Super Kings, who rode on captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni's hurricane unbeaten 19-ball 63, here on Thursday.
Just like the Sunrisers, even the Titans had come up with brilliant batting display against the Chennai Super Kings before going down by four wickets in their opening game.
A couple of dropped catches at crucial junctures affected their defence as Chennai won in Ranchi.
Titans, however, managed to eke out a narrow four-run win over Brisbane Heat.
Teams:
Sunrisers Hyderabad: Shikhar Dhawan (capt), Jean-Paul Duminy, Amit Mishra, Parthiv Patel (wk), Thisara Perera , Biplab Samantray, Darren Sammy, Ishant Sharma, Karan Sharma, Dale Steyn, Hanuma Vihari.
Titans: Henry Davids (capt), Farhaan Behardien, Marchant de Lange, AB de Villiers, Heino Kuhn, Morne Morkel, Mangaliso Mosehle (wk), Rowan Richards, Jacques Rudolph, Roelof van der Merwe, David Wiese.
