SRH vs MI – IPL – Team Previews

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Harry Brook, Sunrisers Hyderabad’s big-money signing, played a crucial role in the team’s important win against Kolkata Knight Riders in their last match. The English batter scored an unbeaten century while opening the batting for the first time on a batting paradise at the Eden Gardens, helping his team post a big total of 228/4.

Despite facing some difficulties against spinners, Brook performed exceptionally well against pace. This win marked a sensational return to form for the Men in Orange, who had previously lost two consecutive matches in the Indian Premier League 2023. Although they currently sit in ninth place in the points table, there are still enough matches left for them to climb up and improve their position.

The bowling line-up did a good job for the second game running. Marco Jansen did the damage with the new ball, while Mayank Markande struck in the middle overs with two crucial wickets. The Sunrisers are slowly starting to click and may not tinker with a winning combination.

Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians, led by Rohit Sharma, bounced back with a much-needed victory against Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League 2023. The game was a close one and Mumbai’s batsmen showed some collective effort to secure their team’s first win of the season.

Prior to this, they suffered defeats against Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings. Historically, Mumbai Indians have been slow starters in most IPL seasons but have always managed to make a strong comeback later on.

Arjun Tendulkar, son of legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, made his debut for the franchise but failed to pick up any wickets in the two overs he bowled. Ishan Kishan regained his form with the bat, and Suryakumar Yadav made his first significant contribution of the season. However, Rohit Sharma’s continued poor form remains a concern for the team.

SRH vs MI – IPL – Pitch Report and Toss Prediction

The Rajiv Gandhi Stadium is hosting the match and it seems like the pitch will favor the batsmen. However, the bowlers could benefit from the large boundary dimensions. The captain who wins the toss may prefer to bowl first and then chase the target. In the previous two games played at this stadium, one match had a high-scoring affair while the other was low-scoring.
