It is a mouthwatering clash again as Sunrisers Hyderabad are all set to face Delhi Capitals in Indian Premier League 2019 (IPL 2019). Both teams are on 4 points (won two matches each), but SRH have a game in hand.
In their last match, SRH hammered RCB by 118 runs. Both their openers – David Warner and Jonny Bairstow – scored scintillating centuries. They would like a similar performance from them, but it remains to be seen whether Delhi Capitals will allow them to do so.
In their last match, DC were on course to win against KXIP but a collapse (thanks to Sam Curran) saw them lose the game by 14 runs.
The pitch in Delhi will be different from Hyderabad and it could be a low scoring game. For Delhi, the likes of Rishabh Pant, Prithvi Shaw and Shreyas Iyer will be key. If SRH can dismiss these 3 batsmen cheaply, half their battle will be won. The wicket of Rishabh Pant especially will be key.
For Hyderabad, the likes of David Warner and Jonny Bairstow will not be able to score as freely (due to the pitch) as they did in their last game. It’ll be interesting to see how they approach their innings.
“There are adjustments you need to do in Delhi in order to be effective, so our focus is very much around that. What Delhi have done in the last game is not going to have any bearing on our preparation,” SRH’s coach Tom Moody said in a press conference.
