Team News:
Sunrisers Hyderabad:
Hyderabad captain David Warner was very disappointed with the way the middle order performed against Punjab. They collapsed from 59/0 in the first 6 overs to 110/4, and then 114 all-out while chasing. The return of Kane Williamson shall strengthen their middle-order, which has probably been the weakest among all teams this season. David Warner has been their leading run-scorer with 370 runs, while Rashid Khan has been the top wicket-taker with 14 wickets.
Delhi Capitals:
Delhi are in a spot of bother, with their batting now heavily relying on Shikhar Dhawan (2nd in the Orange Cap race) and captain Shreyas Iyer. Their middle-order has failed to perform, with Rishabh Pant and Shimron Hetmyer unable to live up to their potential. Kagiso Rabada remains on top of the most wicket-takers this season, picking up at least one wicket in every match.
Probable XI:
