Morning shows the day – Sunrisers Hyderabad had showcased good stint in their batting unit. However, opener Mayank Agarwal has been a sort of bane for the team. Mayank has failed to give his team a great start in all of the three games and thus could be well poised to be the kryptonite of the team.
Each team depends on a quick start to continue scoring on that momentum. While Sunrisers Hyderabad has a strong and proven batting line-up, it is imperative that the team gets hold of a good start.
In their recent GT vs SRH clash, the Sunrisers managed to post a decent total of 162 runs. But at the end of the innings, the team could have gone on to score more runs. That could have happened had star opener Mayank Agarwal produced a good start.
Mayank managed to score 16-runs from 17 balls with a strike rate of less than 100. Despite managing to hit 2 boundaries, SRH from their next game would be hoping for a glorious start. Fellow opener Travis Head too was not up to the mark after being dismissed for 19. For a team that managed to score the highest runs in an innings in the history of IPL, SRH will be desperate for their star opener to fire on all cylinders.
