Nothing is left for prediction after the miraculous performance by David Warner and Co. against the table topper KKR. No doubt, SRH are all set to win Tuesday’s clash to reach second spot at the table surpassing Mumbai Indians.
Team News for Delhi Daredevils
Despite having a fearsome bowling combination with match winners like Pat Cummins, Zaheer Khan, Rabada and Morris – Delhi have thoroughly disappointed this year. Even though, Delhi bowlers have tried their bits – it was the Delhi’s batting unit that has failed to perform at IPL 10.
Now, the latest news is confirming that DD skipper Zaheer Khan will be unavailable for the upcoming match against SRH owing to his hamstring injury. It will be really very difficult for DD to restrict Hyderabad’s free-flow scoring. Its top order batsmen are in sublime form and batting exceptionally well.
Just like every other match, once again Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson will be crucial to Delhi’s batting. If they fail against SRH, then it would literally mean one more lackadaisical performance of DD with the bat.
India’s only triple centurion in test after Sehwag, the young Karun Nair is expected to lead Daredevils at home against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. He led his side in the last match too in which DD were bundled out for just 67 conceding a shocking 10-wicket loss to Maxwell’s Punjab.
Team News for Sunrisers Hyderabad
In the last match against KKR, Warner completely annihilated the KKR’s bowling with raining boundaries and sixes. Batting first, SRH smashed 209/3 at 20 overs with the help of Warner’s blistering 126 (59b, 4sx10, 6sx8).
In response, KKR could score only 161 and conceded a fantastic 48-run win to the Men-in-orange. In their upcoming match, SRH must be looking forward to some useful knocks from Warner, Kane Williamnson, Moises Henriques, Yuvraj Singh and Dhawan.
For SRH, everything is in order now and they have momentum on their side as well. Captain David Warner is currently leading the orange cap race with 459 runs and also SRH’s Bhuvneshwar Kumar is leading the purple cap contender’s chart with 20 wickets to his credit.
