The second match on a blockbuster Sunday is a repeat of the second qualifier from last season, between the Sunrisers Hyderabad and the Delhi Capitals. SRH finally ended their losing streak with a comprehensive victory against the Punjab Kings this Wednesday.
They will be looking to build upon this form so as to bridge the gap from the top four places. Bhuvneshwar Kumar reportedly left the field two days ago with a thigh injury. Sandeep Sharma could replace him if he fails to recover in time.
On the other hand, we have the Delhi Capitals who are looking just as strong as last year. Recently they recorded a big victory against last year champions Mumbai Indians. Second highest wicket taker in the history of the IPL, Amit Mishra was terrific in the last game and he will surely be in the side against SRH.
Axar Patel has tested negative for COVID-19 and is out of quarantine. He is expected to be in the playing XI after this game. All in all, it promises to be yet another fascinating contest between bat and ball.
