Sunrisers Hyderabad have been one of the most ruthless teams in the ongoing IPL 2024. They have broken multiple records in the 17th edition of the cash-rich tournament and against Delhi Capitals, the Pat Cummins-led side is likely to play the same brand of cricket. The Capitals, on the other hand, have struggled this season as they are sixth on the points table with three wins in seven matches.
However, in the last match against Gujarat Titans, the Rishabh Pant-led side produced a phenomenal bowling performance, which should give them plenty of confidence. Mukesh Kumar and Tristan Stubbs were incredible with the ball, while Jake Fraser-McGurk has done reasonably well so far. Skipper Pant’s form is also a big positive.
When it comes to Sunrisers, there have been many positives as well. Travis Head, Heinrich Klaasen, and Aiden Markram have shown their class so far while skipper Cummins has been impressive in the middle overs. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mayank Markande have been sensational as well.
Probable Playing XI of Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad:
Sunrisers Hyderabad – Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Aiden Markram, Nitish Reddy, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Abdul Samad, Shahbaz Ahmed, Pat Cummins (c), Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jaydev Unadkat, T Natarajan
Delhi Capitals – Prithvi Shaw, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Tristan Stubbs, Shai Hope, Rishabh Pant (wk/c), Axar Patel, Sumit Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav, Ishant Sharma, Mukesh Kumar, Khaleel Ahmed
