Orangearmy Look to Continue their Golden Run

118,132,152 and 146 these are the scores which Sunrisers Hyderabad defended this season courtesy some extra-ordinary bowling performance. They are presently leading the points table with 8 wins out of 10 games. Today they are all set to face the DD's at Ferozshah Kotla. Orangearmy looks to continue their winning run and cement their spot in the Top of the leaderboard whereas the Struggling Daredevils look to start a winning run. With the present scenario, it is unlikely that the boys from Delhi make it to the top 4 but they have the capability to upset the teams which are in contention. Delhi's batsman had a good outing this season as the likes of Rishab, Shreyas, young Prthivi shaw had a good amount of runs and confidence under their belt. On the other hand, SRH looks to continue their good outing this season, Batting has been their area of concern as no one except Their skipper Kane Williamson scored more than 200 runs this season. With Alex Hales inclusion their batting looks balanced and they heavily rely on their openers to lay them a foundation at the batting-friendly wicket at Delhi. Shikhar Dhawan their Star player Is struggling with his form after getting hit on his elbow. SRH hope that the Southpaw Who is all set to play in his Home ground will gain some runs under his belt.

Manish Pandey's Form a concern?

Manish Pandey was bought for a whooping 11cr at the auction, but his form is hurting SRH badly. Tough he is very good at fielding his batting has been a problem and his poor strike rate is the main reason for Srh not posting Big totals. But talented and class players are just 10 balls away from finding their rhythm back.SRH hope that he finds his form.

Strengths of Orangearmy:

1.Bowling: Everyone who was given the ball in hand has performed well for SRH.
2.Kane Williamson's form and leadership: No statements - just pure Class
3.Alex Hales- Hales has been striking the ball very well and he will certainly reduce the batting woes of sunrisers.
4. Yusuf Pathan- chipping in with useful contributions and justifying the tag all-rounder.
5. Shakib- Boy from Bangla has been a vital part of SRH. 
6.Rashid Khan- No comments.

Probable 11:

They are unlikely to change their winning combination. Unless they are forced to do so.

Weather :

No Rain expected, A pleasant evening and atmosphere to watch a cricket match.

Table Toppers SRH take on rejuvnated Daredevils

Come Saturday night, it's a battle between audacious stroke-makers and astute arm-rollers. When you think of Sunrisers Hyderabad, the first thing that strikes your mind is their bowling. Their mantra - Choke, squeeze, strangle. Repeat. If their defense of 132 was inspiring, their defense of 118 was jaw-dropping. They are one team that proves Twenty20 cricket is not just all about wham-bam action and beautifies the game with thrillers out of nothing. They have not even felt the absence of their main weapon Bhuvneshwar Kumar - the one who troubles batsmen with swing, cutters, yorkers, knuckles and more. In the last three games, Sandeep Sharma, Siddharth Kaul, and Basil Thampi have collective figures of 29.1-0-156-14. An economy rate of 5.36 despite operating in the toughest of times - powerplay and the death overs - speaks volumes of the depth in the team. Add to it a shrewd learner in Rashid Khan, who corrects mistakes quickly. Their batting though...

SUN"RISES" IN JAIPUR

For the third consecutive time, this season Orange army defends a par total. Thanks to their outstanding bowling performance. TOSS: Sunrisers opt to bat  Hales, Kane give them a good start After losing Shikhar Dhawan early for 6, skipper Kane and English swash-buckling opener Alex Hales steady their ship till the 14th over. There were a few drop catches which affected the Rajasthan as the game progressed. Kane scored an entertaining 63 from 43 balls before he fell to his countrymen Ish Sodhi.Prior to that Karnataka all-rounder, Gowtham dismissed Hales (45) who played an anchor role in their 91 run partnership with Kane. And then started the collapse in the middle order neither of them clicked and as a result, the Men in orange were restricted to 151/7 in their 20 overs. Jofra Archer picked up 3 vital wickets and wrecked the middle order of the orange army.  Bowlers do it yet again:  Chasing 152 on a slower wicket with mighty sunrisers bowling line up wa...
