DC vs SRH: Match Preview:

Despite a close defeat in their last fixture against Lucknow Super Giants, Delhi Capitals had a few positives. After the openers were dismissed early, the middle order took charge and scored runs. With Mitchell Marsh & Rishabh Pant gaining form at #3 & #4, the DC batting looks much more effective than before apart from openers Prithvi Shaw & David Warner.

However, the DC bowlers were smacked for plenty in their last game. Only Shardul Thakur managed to pick up wickets but gave away runs at an economy of 10 in his 4 overs. The rest of the bowlers - Mustafizur Rahman, Chetan Sakariya, Axar Patel & Kuldeep Yadav were very expensive and DC would be pinning their hopes on the bowlers to make a comeback in this match.

Sunrisers Hyderabad started off the tournament with 2 back-to-back losses, followed up by 5 wins on the trot, and then again 2 losses. In their last fixture, Kane Williamson scored 47 runs, while young Abhishek Sharma also contributed with 39 runs. In-form Rahul Tripathi was dismissed for a golden duck and would be looking to make an impact in this match. Nicholas Pooran was the top scorer with an unbeaten 64 runs in just 33 balls, including 3 fours & 6 sixes.

SRH bowling has been one of the best bowling attacks in this tournament till now. With the likes of Umran Malik, T Natarajan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar & Marco Jansen, the Hyderabad-based franchise would be hoping to get through the DC batting line up and guide the team to a victory.
