IPL 2021, PBKS vs SRH, 14th Match Probable Playing XI: Plenty Of Changes On The Cards For Both Teams

In the 14th match of IPL 2021, Sunrisers Hyderabad(SRH) will face Punjab Kings(PBKS) in Chennai on Wednesday. Both the teams lost their last respective games. 

Punjab Kings batting looks strong on paper but hasn't performed well according to the expectations. KL Rahul has been among runs but hasn't able to strike the ball well. Mayank Agarwal looked in excellent touch in the last game and will be crucial to give PBKS a good start. Chris Gayle hasn't yet fired and will remain a threat to the bowlers, and the same is the case of Nicholas Pooran. 

Deepak Hooda and Shahrukh Khan have tried to make the most of the limited opportunities they have got. 

The bowling has hurt Punjab more. They haven't been able to control the flow of runs. Mohammad Shami has been expensive. Riley Meredith might get replaced by Chris Jordan in this game. PBKS might bring in a specialist leg-spinner - Ravi Bishnoi - in place of Jalaj Saxena. 

Sunrisers Hyderabad batting has been disappointing, to say the least. Neither they have been able to rotate strike nor been able to play aggressively. The middle-order needs a Kane Williamson in the batting lineup as soon as possible along with David Warner, who is the only batsman to look comfortable while at the crease. Kedar Jadhav might get a game soon. 

Vijay Shankar has been inconsistent but might be given a longer run in the playing XI due to his last game's performance. 
The bowling has been their biggest positive. Rashid Khan has choked runs in the middle phase. Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been expensive so far but the rest of the bowlers have been decent.  

Sunrisers Hyderabad has been a better team than Punjab Kings in their IPL fixtures so far. However, going by the current form, PBKS is looking favorites to win this contest against SRH. 

PBKS Probable XI - KL Rahul (c & wk), Mayank Agarwal, Chris Gayle, Deepak Hooda, Nicholas Pooran, Shahrukh Khan, Jhye Richardson, Jalaj Saxena/ Ravi Bishnoi, Mohammed Shami, Riley Meredith/ Chris Jordan, Arshdeep Singh

SRH Probable XI - David Warner (c), Jonny Bairstow (wk), Manish Pandey, Virat Singh/ Kane Williamson, Vijay Shankar, Abhishek Sharma/ Kedar Jadhav, Abdul Samad, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mujeeb Ur Rahman/ Shahbaz Nadeem, Khaleel Ahmed/ T Natarajan
