In the bowling department, Varun Chakaravarthy, Moeen Ali and Harshit Rana each took two wickets. In their last match they failed to score big against Mumbai Indians and lost the match.

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Sunrisers Hyderabad has been in a bad batting form in this IPL, winning just one match. SRH’s main weapon is their batting and they need to improve that. SRH have all hitters in the batting lineup and they need someone who can hold his wicket to progress the inning. Those players will slowly but at least keep ticking the scorecard so that hitters on the other hand can strike the ball. 

SRH won their first match against Rajasthan Royals by 44 runs courtesy to their sublime batting. But lost the next two games against LSG and DC due to a batting failure. SRH should try to bowl first to chase the target with their strength of batters.
