Sunrisers Hyderabad start their IPL 2022 campaign on Tuesday with a clash against Rajasthan Royals and all eyes will be on the "Orange Army's"pace spearhead Bhuvneshwar Kumar as he looks to reignite his career. IPL was the platform that helped Bhuvneshwar get his India career back on track as he won the Purple Cap in back-to-back seasons in 2016 and 2017. But a spate of injuries and rise of other pacers have meant that Bhuvi has dropped in the pecking order across formats.

IPL 2022, SRH vs RR: Can Sunrisers Hyderabad Take Advantage Of This Jos Buttler Weakness?

With Rajasthan Royals (RR) set to begin their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 campaign on Tuesday, Jos Buttler will be aiming to play a talismanic role against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. The wicketkeeper-batter has always found it hard to perform against SRH but managed to break the jinx in IPL 2021. Last season, his knock of 124 runs against SRH was his first score of 30+ in nine innings against the franchise. In his previous eight innings against the team, the Englishman aggregated 73 runs at a strike rate of 94.81. The primary reason for the 31-year-old's failure against SRH was the presence of Rashid Khan, who has taken his wicket thrice which is the most by a bowler in IPL. In general, he has also found it difficult to play against leg spinners.

IPL 2022, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Sunrisers Hyderabad look to banish last season's demons

Sunrisers Hyderabad have been in the Indian Premier League - since they joined late in 2013 - they have lost six of their opening fixtures. But that fact is likely to weigh less heavily on them as against the fact that they were way below par last season, when they finished last with just three wins and 11 losses. Kane Williamson's elbow injury and his non-availability, David Warner's poor form and their formidable bowling attack blunted by the form issues of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan's surgery may all have contributed to a wretched 2021 season. But like all teams, they too have refurbished their squad with some new personnel, some old and retained most of the young turks from the previous season.
