They lost their opener to RCB by seven wickets but bounced back with a dominant eight-wicket win over RR. However, in their last match, they were outplayed by Mumbai Indians, suffering another eight-wicket defeat. The team needs a big performance from their batters, especially Venkatesh Iyer. Among the top order, only Ajinkya Rahane and Quinton de Kock have shown some form, making it important for other players to step up. In the bowling department, Varun Chakaravarthy will once again be the key player to watch.

They lost to LSG by five wickets and suffered a seven-wicket loss to DC in their last match. With their biggest strength being batting, SRH is expected to stick to their aggressive approach. If they bat first, they will aim for a 200+ total to put pressure on the opposition.
