Pre-Match Analysis:
When the top order does well, obviously it impacts more on the success of the team, but in the case of Sunrisers Hyderabad, it didn’t go well like the previous season, as they suffered a major setback this year. Currently struggling at 9th in the standings with 6 points, they need a complete overhaul in the remaining 4 games to stay in the Playoffs race. They are still fortunate enough to stay alive in the contention despite losing their previous game against the Gujarat Titans by 38 runs. Barring Abhishek Sharma (74), batting again took a back seat, where they managed 186 for 6, while chasing 224. Now they face a complex qualification process from here on, as they also need to depend on other results to finish in the top 4.
Delhi Capitals endured a slight hiccup on the bid to win their first ever IPL title, losing their last two matches against Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bengaluru by 6 wickets and 14 runs respectively. Axar Patel and his men need to turn it around from here on to reach the Playoffs. They are currently placed 5th in the standings with 12 points.
They are the most sorted team in the league and one win away from gaining confidence back.
