The injury-hit Sunrisers Hyderabad are short on experience with the departure of Bhuvneshwar Kumar after Mitchell Marsh was also ruled out. Their middle order remains a concern, with over-dependence on captain David Warner, Jonny Bairstow and Kane Williamson at the top. But even they have been inconsistent, much like Manish Pandey just below them. The Sunrisers might ponder including Mohammad Nabi to bring in some experience with the ball, but will they drop Williamson for him?
Like their opponents today, the Kings XI Punjab are also too reliant on their openers. Although KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal are among the top run-getters, their middle order remains under-utilised. Nicholas Pooran is getting back to his best, but like Glenn Maxwell, hasn’t faced a lot of deliveries. As for their bowling, Mujeeb Ur Rahman is yet to get a game, having been kept out by Chris Jordan. Rahul and his men are last on the points table, but two points today will take them up to fifth.
