Sunrisers Hyderabad had won their previous match against Kings XI Punjab convincingly. Hyderabad is at the fourth position in the points table with 12 points under their belt with the help of six wins in the season. On the other hand, Mumbai Indians is also standing at the doors of making the playoff stages. Rohit Sharma led side has won seven matches and they have 14 points in their bag. Sportzwiki takes a look at Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Predicted Playing XI.
Meanwhile, it is going to be a crucial contest for both Hyderabad as well as Mumbai. Mumbai Indians had lost their previous match against Kolkata Knight Riders and would like to secure their place in the playoff stages.
On the other hand, there is not going to be any David Warner in Sunrisers Hyderabad’s playing XI. Thus, the other players will need to pull up their socks.
Here is a look at Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Predicted Playing XI:
Martin Guptill
New Zealand talisman opener Martin Guptill is likely to replace David Warner in the playing XI. This would be the first match for Guptill in the Orange Army.
Wriddhiman Saha
The wicketkeeper-batsman had played a nice little cameo of 28 runs from 13 balls in the previous match against KXIP. Saha will like to play a key role.
Kane Williamson
Kane Williamson hasn’t been at his best and the Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper will like to deliver the goods. Williamson will like to get some runs under his belt.
Manish Pandey
The right-hander has been in good form in the last few matches. Pandey has scored two fifties in the last three matches and he would like to continue his good form going.
Mohammed Nabi
The right-hander had provided the finishing touches in the previous match against KXIP. Nabi can also chip in with the ball and he would like to hit the straps.
Vijay Shankar
The all-rounder has had a disappointing season with the bat. In fact, Shankar hasn’t been given opportunities with the ball and he would like to pull up the socks.
Yusuf Pathan
Yusuf Pathan was dropped in the last match against KXIP. However, the experienced batsman should return to the playing XI of SRH.
SRH will like to savour success.
Rashid Khan
The talisman leg-spinner was at his best in the previous match as he scalped three wickets. Khan would like to deliver the goods once again for his team.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar
Sunrisers Hyderabad’s pack leader had gone wicketless in the last match. Kumar has scalped only eight wickets in the season and has looked off-colour.
Sandeep Sharma
The swing fast bowler has taken 12 wickets for the Orange Army in the ongoing season. The Punjab based pacer had scalped two wickets against KXIP.
Khaleel Ahmed
The southpaw pacer has impressed since he has been getting his chances in the playing XI. Ahmed had taken three wickets against KXIP in the last match.
