NDTV
IPL 2021: SunRisers Hyderabad, with two losses, will now have to get the better of defending champions Mumbai Indians in Chennai on Saturday to get off the blocks and register their first win.
SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH), even so early in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 season, find themselves in quite a soup with two consecutive losses, and having to take on defending champions Mumbai Indians (MI) in Chennai on Saturday. David Warner-led SRH have lost both their games so far in IPL 2021 - against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) - whereas Mumbai Indians, after losing to RCB in their season opener, came back to defeat KKR in their next match. Warner, Manish Pandey and Jonny Bairstow have all hit fifties in the season thus far but their contributions haven't translated into wins as SRH have faltered towards the end of the match in both their games. MI, on the other hand, after losing a close game against RCB, choked KKR in the death overs to register their first win. Batsmen aside, leg-spinner Rashid Khan has been SRH's go-to man with the ball, having returned 2 for 24 and 2 for 18 from his quota of four over in the two games this far.More Related News
