SRH vs DC Preview | Team Analysis & Squad Details
Here’s an in-depth look at SRH and DC – team analysis, squad, head-to-head record, and prediction.
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)
After succumbing to defeat in their opening match against RR, SRH struggled on a turning pitch in Lucknow in their second match. In the face of adversity, the Hyderabad-based outfit rose to the occasion. The Aiden Markram-led franchise showed remarkable determination, first by securing a victory against Punjab Kings on home turf and then claiming another win against Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens.
This resurgence can be attributed to the return of Aiden Markram, whose leadership skills have rallied the team, and his inclusion has paved the way for Marco Jansen and Heinrich Klaasen to shine. Furthermore, the resurgence of England’s promising batsman Harry Brook has been a joy to behold, as he has been an integral part of the team’s success.
Other key players in the squad include Rahul Tripathi, Mayank Agarwal, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
