Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Delhi Capitals IPL

Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals would be keen to shrug off the tag of early contenders for wooden spoon when they meet at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Monday. This IPL 2023 match #34 will be played on April 24 from 7:30pm IST.

It is tough to say who’s in form as both Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals are in the middle of a wretched run of games. Instead of the win market, we are looking at the powerplay where Delhi Capitals are primed to score more runs.

Head to Head

There’s literally nothing to separate these sides in terms of historical records as Sunrisers Hyderabad have a 11-10 win-loss record against Delhi Capitals.

That record is made closer because of Delhi’s recent run, where they have won six of their last eight including the last four in a row. They have defeated Hyderabad last season by 21 runs.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Form

Sunrisers Hyderabad are second from bottom with four points from six matches. They have lost their last two matches, to Mumbai and Chennai.

The hosts are led in the batting department by Harry Brook (156) and Rahul Tripathi (145). With the ball, Mayank Markande (eight wickets) has been a revelation.

Despite those two wins in the middle phase of their tournament, Hyderabad remains susceptible to poor performances. Inconsistent top-order has been a worry.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Team News

The Hyderabad team has been tinkering a lot with their batting order and that could be something they would like to settle with. Washington Sundar’s performances remain under the scanner.

Delhi Capitals Form

Delhi Capitals are bottom of the standings with two points from six matches. Their lone win has come in their last league match, a nervy four-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders.

Captain David Warner (285 runs) has been their leading light with the bat, while bowling has been light with not much of a leadership role from any player. It’s Kuldeep Yadav’s six wickets that are the most for them.

Beyond Warner and to an extent Axar Patel, none of Delhi’s batters have lived up to their potential. Even with the ball, they have struggled all over without proper penetration.

Delhi Capitals Team News

Mitchell Marsh continues to flop while Rilee Rossouw and Rovman Powell wait in the wings. Khaleel Ahmed’s fitness will also be under discussion.

Verdict

This is the battle at the wrong end of the table as both Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals are looking for a lift. It is tough to pick a winner as both teams have been very poor on all counts. I am backing Delhi Capitals on the powerplay count backing them to score more in the first 6 overs than Sunrisers Hyderabad.
