Heinrich Klaasen and Marco Jansen add South African interest when Sunrisers Hyderabad host Punjab Kings in a key IPL clash on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Klaasen has been part of a powerful Hyderabad batting lineup alongside Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head and Ishan Kishan, with the hosts passing 200 in three of their last four matches.<\/p>\n

Sunrisers sit third with six wins from 10 games, but need a response after their five-match winning run ended against Kolkata Knight Riders.<\/p>\n

AFRICA PICKS: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Punjab Kings \u2013 IPL preview<\/a><\/p>\n

Jansen gives Punjab an option in an all-round group that also includes Marcus Stoinis. Punjab remain top of the table, but back-to-back defeats have cut into the early momentum built by six wins from their first seven matches.<\/p>\n

The reverse fixture went Punjab\u2019s way earlier this season, although Hyderabad lead the overall head-to-head 17-8.<\/p>\n

With both teams priced evenly, Klaasen\u2019s middle-order role and Jansen\u2019s all-round value could shape a high-scoring contest in Hyderabad.<\/p>\n
