Pat Cummins Will Be Unavailable For The Remainder Of IPL 2021 At UAE

Published on May 30, 2021

Pat Cummins who has established himself as one of the best bowlers in the world in the last few years, will not be available for the remainder of IPL 2021 to be staged in UAE without giving any reason behind the move.

Pat Cummins was the most expensive buy in the 2020 IPL Auction after being bagged by KKR for a whopping 15.50 crores.

Pat Cummins Picked 9 Scalps In 7 Games Besides Scoring 91 Runs In IPL 2021

It was back to purple and gold for pacer Pat Cummins who picked 12 wickets in 14 games that included a 4-wicket haul in the 2020 IPL season. He bowled well in IPL 2021 picking 9 scalps in 7 games averaging 26.33 besides scoring 93 runs averaging 31. Pat Cummins’ KKR teammates Prasidh Krishna, Varun Chakravarthy, Sandeep Warrier, and Tim Seifert had tested positive for Covid-19 leading to the indefinite postponement of IPL 2020.

The resumption of the Indian Premier League (IPL)was given yet another blow after reports emerged that Australian pacer Pat Cummins would not be heading to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to take part in the remaining matches for the Kolkata Knight Riders(KKR).

Pat Cummins And David Warmer Could Be Rested From West Indies Tour Due To Family Reasons

According to a report in Sydney Morning Herald, Pat Cummins had already made it clear that he would not be taking part in the remaining matches of the IPL. However, no reason was given behind his decision.

“David Warner and Pat Cummins could be rested from the West Indies tour because of family reasons – others could follow after a draining year in several bubbles – and Cummins, despite a multimillion-dollar IPL contract, has already said he will not return to the T20 tournament this season,” stated the report.

SRH handed over the captaincy reins to Kane Williamson after suffering defeats in five of their six matches under David Warner’s leadership. However, the move did not yield immediate dividends as the Orange Army was handed a 55-run drubbing by the Rajasthan Royals. With Jonny Bairstow and Kane Williamson in good form, SRH did not have any other option but to leave David Warner out of their playing XI.

The suspended 14th edition of the IPL is likely to be played in UAE in the September 15 to October 15 window with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) looking at a 25-day window for the cash-rich league. The BCCI on Saturday announced it will complete the remaining matches of the IPL 2021 season in the UAE.

The decision has come after Ashley Giles, managing director of the England men’s team, had said that the ECB is not planning to change their schedule for the IPL. The remaining matches of the IPL would most likely be played between September 15 and October 15 window. Australia will tour West Indies for 5 T20Is and 3 ODIs in July, followed by a five-match T20I series against Bangladesh away in August.

While Australia does not have any bilateral commitments in the September-October window, Cricket Australia faces a tough call to decide whether it should leave players ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup. After England made its players unavailable for IPL 2021 Phase 2 and New Zealand playing bilateral series, Australian players could also be unavailable with KKR’s Pat Cummins all but certain to not return for the UAE leg.

IPL 2020: Delhi Capitals Will Be Hoping Shikhar Dhawan And Ravichandran Ashwin To Come Good Against SRH – Kris Srikkanth

Published on November 8, 2020

Former Indian cricketer Kris Srikkanth believes that Delhi Capitals (DC) can only have the upper hand against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) had individual performances come good. DC will clash against SRH in the second qualifier on Sunday (November 8) to face Mumbai Indians in the grand finale of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 on November 10.

In the column written to Times of India, Kris Srikkanth had measured SRH above in all the departments when comparing to DC and concluded that Hyderabad was likely to be the winner. But he believes that some ‘individual brilliance’ can change the momentum for DC. He stated that Shikhar Dhawan, batting at the top, while Ravichandran Ashwin with the ball, needs to come good.

“Individual brilliance can fling any prediction through the window in this format. Delhi will only be hoping for Dhawan to have a fun-filled day and Ashwin to come good with the ball, especially during the powerplay,” Kris Srikkanth wrote.

Although DC has best pacers Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje, Srikkanth stated that Ashwin’s role is pivotal in powerplays because the pacers have not necessarily picked wickets in the first six overs.

“In (Kagiso) Rabada and (Anrich) Nortje, Delhi have two new-ball merchants who have picked wickets but not necessarily in the first six overs. This is where the contribution of Ashwin is vital,” he wrote.

Kris Srikkanth advises to Delhi Capitals:

At last, the former chief selector concluded that DC needs to bring Shimron Hetmyer back in the attack to boost the middle-order while Daniel Sams can be replaced with any Indian seamer.

“If I were to pick Delhi’s XI, I would definitely bring in (Shimron) Hetmyer to boost the middle order. The think-tank has to identify an Indian option for seamer Sams in order to give the side a better chance of upstaging a side that is on a roll,” he said.

Delhi Capitals have lost the first qualifier against Mumbai Indians. Although bowlers could not restrict MI to give massive targets, their batting performance was more disappointing. They need to come back stronger against SRH, who have momentum and rhythm all in their favour.

IPL 2020: Sunrisers Hyderabad Need To Take Care Of Basics – Rashid Khan

Published on November 7, 2020

Rashid Khan, Afghanistan’s spinner has said that they need to take care of the basics when they take on Delhi Capitals in the second Qualifier of the Indian Premier League.

Rashid Khan and his team were victorious in Eliminator at Abu Dhabi as they beat RCB. Unlike RCB, SRH has peaked at the right time and entered the business end of the tournament on the back of three consecutive wins.

Rashid Khan Kept It Simple And Thanks God For Winning Eliminator

Rashid Khan has 19 wickets from 15 matches at an average of 16.73 and economy of 5.3. The average is 3rd so far, and the economy rate is least among all bowlers so far. He is 8th among the wicket-takers list which is headed by Jasprit Bumrah of Mumbai Indians. Jasprit Bumrah has 27 wickets from 14 matches averaging 13.92.

“It was tough, it was the same kind of feeling like the game against KXIP. A game which is Eliminator, and that pressure as well. Thank god we won it. Just kept it very simple for myself, just hit a good area,” Rashid told host broadcaster Star Sports after the match.

“As long as I’m hitting that area, I’m good. I’ve watched my videos and analyzed that most of the time I’ve been hit when I bowl full. So I try to bowl the right areas. This wicket sometimes you get a skiddy kind of turn,” he added.

Rashid Khan has taken 74 wickets in 61 matches in IPL averaging a meagre 20.41 at an economy rate of 6.24.

Rashid Khan: Need To Do Basics Right Against Delhi Capitals

SRH now face Delhi Capitals at the same ground, and the spinner already has a plan.

“Today it wasn’t that, it was a bit slow and not skidding as much as the last time we played here. You just have to keep it simple, back of a length. We just need to do the basics right against Delhi and see what happens,” said Rashid Khan

Leg Spinner Rashid Khan has played IPL since 2017 and picked more than 15 wickets each time after being bought by Sunrisers Hyderabad for 4 crores. He was one of the eleven cricketers to play in Afghanistan’s first-ever Test match, against India, in June 2018. Among spinners in IPL 2020, Yuzvendra Chahal is leading with 21 wickets in 15 games averaging 19.28.

IPL 2020: SunRisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians – SRH Predicted XI

Published on November 2, 2020

In the last league match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020, SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) will face Mumbai Indians (MI) on Tuesday (November 3) at Sharjah Cricket Stadium in Sharjah.

Sunrisers Hyderabad have their last opportunity to secure the berth in playoffs by defeating Mumbai Indians, who have already qualified. Lying at the number five position, they need to win by a huge margin to improve their run rate. But the most important factor will be luck.

Here, let’s take a look at SunRisers Hyderabad Predicted XI against Mumbai Indians:

Wriddhiman Saha (wk):

IPL 2020: SunRisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians - SRH Predicted XI 3 — Wriddhiman Saha (Image Credit: IPL)

Wriddhiman Saha has impressed with his batting in the last two matches. Against DC, he played a sensational knock of 87 runs to leave everyone in awe-struck. In the last match against RCB, while chasing a below-par target of 121 runs, he set a good base for the team, scoring 39 off 32 balls.

David Warner (c):

After a disappointing match against KXIP, SRH captain David Warner went all gun blazing against Delhi Capitals. He amassed 66 runs off 34 balls and struck eight fours and two sixes. Although in the last match, he lost his wicket early, it didn’t harm them because they were chasing a below-par total. But he will have to play a big knock against strong Mumbai Indians.

Manish Pandey:

Manish Pandey, who was the match-winner for SunRisers Hyderabad against Rajasthan Royals, scored 44 runs off 31 balls and struck four fours and one sixes against DC.

The Indian batsman has very handled the pressure and took them across the line. His role will be crucial against MI to secure a berth in the playoffs.

Kane Williamson:

Kane Williamson might be disappointed with his performance against RCB. He was out after scoring 8 runs off 14 balls although his early fall of wicket didn’t hurt the team. Against a strong MI, the New Zealander has to get good runs on the board to fulfil his franchises dream.

Abhishek Sharma:

Vijay Shankar’s injury has given an opportunity to Abhishek Sharma. He surfaced from a hamstring injury against DC and has been ruled out of the tournament. Now, Sharma has a big responsibility to fill up his shoes.

Abdul Samad:

Abdul Samad, the power-hitter, has featured in nine matches but has not got enough opportunities to bat. Contrastingly, he has also failed to prove his mettle whenever he has got the chance. With his short cameo in his first match, he had gathered a lot of praise. But the youngster has not stood up to the expectations. He will look to play a capitalise on the opportunity if he gets against MI.

Jason Holder:

The inclusion of Jason Holder has given SRH captain a good bowling option while his power hitting at lower-order has helped them to finish the games on a good note. Against RCB, the fast bowling allrounder dismantled their lower-order batsman, and while batting, he struck sixes to take the game home.

Priyam Garg:

Priyam Garg had a huge responsibility to play as a finisher, but his performance has not been consistent. He was out after scoring three runs against KXIP even though the target was not daunting. With last league match left to play, the youngster will want to prove his worth.

Rashid Khan:

Rashid Khan is the lynchpin for SunRisers Hyderabad. Against DC, he demolished their batting order while also chocked them to score runs. He picked three wickets while gave away only 7 runs in his four overs quota. Likewise against RCB, he got the wicket of Josh Phillippe.

The spinner is the leading wicket-taker for them, snaring 18 wickets in 13 matches.

Sandeep Sharma:

Sandeep Sharma had set the momentum for SunRisers Hyderabad, picking early wickets of Devdutt Padikkal and Virat Kohli. In his four overs quota, he bowled at the economy rate of 5.00. The speedster needs to repeat a similar performance against MI to qualify for playoffs.

T Natrajan:

T Natrajan, the vital cog of SunRisers Hyderabad, snared two wickets against DC while conceded 26 runs in his four overs quota. Against RCB, he picked the wicket of Washington Sundar, who was going to be the dangerman for them, while gave away only 11 runs in his four overs.

Shahbaz Nadeem:

The left-arm spinner Shahbaz Nadeem got the prized wicket of AB de Villiers to restrict RCB to a below part total. Against the top-notch Mumbai Indians, he needs to give early breakthroughs to take the game home.

IPL 2020: Vijay Shankar Third SRH Player To Be Ruled Out Due To Injury

Published on October 31, 2020

SunRisers Hyderabad all-rounder Vijay Shankar becomes the third player from the franchise to be sent back home due to injury. Earlier, at the start of the tournament, their premier pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mitchell Marsh were ruled out because of injury.

According to Sports Tak, Vijay Shankar will not play the remainder of the IPL 2020. Notably, he was earlier benched because he had picked up pain in his back. It is a huge set back for SRH who are striving to qualify for the playoffs with two games left to play.

Vijay Shankar huge ouster for SRH:

While playing against Delhi Capitals on Tuesday, the allrounder was seen limping after bowling the fifth ball of his second over. The physio attended him quickly and gave him some first aid, but the spinner could not manage to complete his over. And finally, the last ball of his second over was bowled by David Warner.

Last week, Vijay Shankar had taken the team to victory with his gritty knock against Rajasthan Royals. He played as the second fiddle to Manish Pandey and stitched over 100 runs partnership. Apart from batting, his contribution with the ball has also been effective.

Overall, he has featured in seven games and has scored 97 runs while picked four wickets at an economy rate of just 6.22. SunRisers Hyderabad are surely going to miss him as they are already struggling with their team combination.

On Saturday, David Warner will take on Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Sharjah while their last league match will be against Mumbai Indian (MI) on Sunday (November 1). As they are lying at second last in the points table, both the matches are crucial for SRH to secure a berth in the IPL 2020 playoffs.

IPL 2020: Rajasthan Royals vs SunRisers Hyderabad – SRH Playing XI

Published on October 21, 2020

Coming off from a defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders, SunRisers Hyderabad will lock horns with Rajasthan Royals in match 40 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 at Dubai International Cricket Stadium in the UAE.

At the start of the tournament, SunRisers Hyderabad struggled to find a proper middle-order which cost them defeats. Although now they have a well-settled batting order, it has been late for them to lock space in play-offs.

Well, nothing can be predicted this season after witnessing three-super overs in one day. So, SRH is likely to be still in the race. But the competition between SRH and RR will be highly competitive as the latter is also desperate to win this match.

Let’s take a look at SunRisers Hyderabad’s playing XI against RR:

1. Jonny Bairstow (wk):

Jonny Bairstow is playing a crucial role for SunRisers Hyderabad this season. He has been the leading scorer for them in the last matches. Overall, he has amassed 316 runs in nine matches at the strike rate of 128.97. It’s important for SRH that he stays longer in the field to give them a good start.

2. David Warner (c):

David Warner has played more cautious innings considering the inexperienced middle-order. He has anchored the innings while has allowed Bairstow to play more freely. This strategy has worked for SunRisers Hyderabad to give them a stable start.

3. Manish Pandey:

Whenever there is an early fall of openers, Manish Pandey has played gritty knocks to put a good score on the board. In nine matches, he has scored 212 runs at a strike rate of 123.25. Being at no.3, SunRisers Hyderabad will expect him to play a big knock to give a good start to the team.

4. Kane Williamson:

Kane Williamson has played decent knocks for the team, but he has lost his wickets early. After missing the first two matches, he has notched up 181 runs in seven matches at a healthy strike rate of 145.96. He is going to play a crucial role for SunRisers Hyderabad against RR.

5. Priyam Garg:

IPL 2020: Rajasthan Royals vs SunRisers Hyderabad - SRH Playing XI 5 — Priyam Garg (Image Credit: BCCI/IPL)

After scoring a half-century against Chennai Super Kings in their first meeting, Priyam Garg has scored 8, 0, 15,16 and 4 in the last five matches. Although he had shown his potential with the bat, he has a huge role to play as a finisher of SunRisers Hyderabad.

6. Abhishek Sharma:

Abhishek Sharma has done a good job with both bat and ball for SunRisers Hyderabad. The youngster has not got enough chances to bat, but his short cameo has accelerated the innings for SRH. In seven matches, the leg spinner has picked up two wickets and scored 63 runs. He has not played in the last two matches, but he is likely to get back his place.

7. Abdul Samad:

Abdul Samad

Abdul Samad has also been a great find of IPL 2020. He is a power hitter while also is a good bowling option for the captain. The youngster will be the one to look out for this season.

8. Rashid Khan:

Rashid Khan is the lynchpin for SunRisers Hyderabad. The lone spinner in the team has the big responsibility to dismiss the opposition’s batsmen early. So far, he has picked up 11 wickets in nine matches at the staggering economy rate of 5.52.

9. Sandeep Sharma:

The pacer’s ability to swing the ball has troubled batsman to not score runs easily against him. But he has failed to pick wickets. He has scalped up four wickets in six matches. SRH will want him to give them breakthroughs against RR.

10. Khaleel Ahmed:

The left-arm pacer Khaleel Ahmed has not been economical but has picked crucial wickets. He has picked up eight wickets in six matches at the economy rate of 9.73. He is still to match up to the expectation. But the youngster will maintain his spot in the coming games.

11. T Natarajan:

T Natarajan is in terrific form. He has remarkably executed his yorkers even though dew makes it difficult to bowl in the second half. The pacer has picked up 11 wickets in nine matches at the economy rate of 8.46. The Tamil Nadu cricketer is going to play a significant role this season for SunRisers Hyderabad.
