Team Previews
Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview
Under the leadership of new captain Pat Cummins, the Sunrisers aim to bounce back from their narrow defeat. With strong performances from batsmen like Heinrich Klaasen, Mayank Agarwal, and Abhishek Sharma in the previous game, the Sunrisers look to provide a fiery start. However, their bowling unit, led by Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan, needs to tighten up after conceding runs freely in the last match.

Top Batsmen: Heinrich Klaasen
Top Bowler: Bhuvneshwar Kumar
Mumbai Indians Preview
Despite a disappointing start, the Mumbai Indians boast a formidable batting lineup, led by Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan. Dewald Brevis showed promise in the previous game, while the experienced duo of Hardik Pandya and Tim David adds depth to their batting arsenal. With Jasprit Bumrah spearheading the bowling attack, supported by Gerald Coetzee and Piyush Chawla, the Mumbai Indians aim to turn the tide in their favor.

If Heinrich Klaasen can replicate his explosive form from the previous match and Mayank Markande can weave his magic with the ball, SRH can pull off an upset. On the other hand, MI will rely on the experience of Rohit Sharma to anchor their innings and the express pace of Jasprit Bumrah to dismantle the SRH batting lineup.
