SRH is shattering after the hat -trick of defeat, now the fire test will be against Gujarat
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) had a great start. After winning the first match, it was felt that the team would do something different this time. But after that the whole rhythm broke. The team lost three consecutive matches and now reached the last number (10th position) in the points table. SRH’s condition under the leadership of World Champion Captain Pat Cummins is not yet good. The batsmen of the team are playing very aggressive – and in this affair, their wickets are also being lost easily.
Batsmen will have to walk, otherwise it is difficult to return
There is a relief for SRH – the next match is on the home ground, where runs are scored fiercely. Now if the team has to return on track, then the head, Ishaan Kishan and Klassen will have to play big innings.
Talking about bowling, the situation is worse. Only Zeeshan Ansari has looked somewhat effective (4 wickets), seeing the economy of the rest of the bowlers, the batsmen of the opposing team will be happy.
Cummins’ Economy: 12.30 Jampa’s Economy: 11.75 Mohammed Shami is also looting 10 runs per over.
Butler’s explosion, Gujarat Titans became and dangerous
On the other hand, the Gujarat Titans team has now come to the rhythm. He made a great comeback by defeating RCB. In that match, Jose Butler hit a half -century.

If SRH has to return, then something new will have to be done in bowling.
