SunRisers Hyderabad Predicted XI vs Mumbai Indians, IPL 2022: Kane Williamson's Form A Huge Concern
SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) take on Mumbai Indians (MI) in Match 65 of the ongoing Indian Premier League at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, on Tuesday. Still in contention for the playoffs, SRH are currently eighth in the IPL 2022 points table with 10 points from 12 games, including five wins and seven defeats. In a five-match losing streak, the Kane Williamson-led side will also be aiming to stage a comeback and make a late push for the playoffs.
IPL 2022, SRH vs MI: On a rollercoaster ride, Sunrisers Hyderabad meet Mumbai Indians in a must-win game
Sunrisers Hyderabad will need to snap their five-match losing streak when they take on an already eliminated Mumbai Indians in the IPL here on Tuesday. It has been a rollercoaster ride for SRH who won five games in a row before losing the next five. SRH, if they win their two remaining games including the one against MI, will jump to 14 points and then be left hoping that the other results go their way to have an outside chance of making the play-offs. But a loss against Mumbai at the Wankhede stadium will surely eliminate them, as there are already seven teams now with 12 or more points. Hyderabad will need to put up a much improved show with the bat. Skipper Williamson is enduring a wretched run in this season and the Kiwi has collected just 208 runs from 12 games at an average of 18.92. He needs to find his mojo. Head coach Tom Moody defended the move to open with an out-of-form Williamson and the New Zealander will need to prove his coach right.
IPL 2022, KKR vs SRH: Kolkata Knight Riders keep their slim hopes intact with win over Sunrisers Hyderabad
AS IT HAPPENEDThe road ahead became more difficult for SRH as they suffered their fifth consecutive defeat. However, the SRH bowling unit, back to its full strength with the return of T Natarajan, Marco Jansen and Washington Sundar, should also get credit for making good use of the yorker to keep the KKR big-hitters quiet after they opted to bat first on winning the toss. But it was the 66 run sixth-wicket stand between Sam Billings and Andre Russell that actually made the difference and saw KKR putting up a fighting score of 177 for six. The West Indian all-rounder Russell came good with the ball too, finishing with three for 22.
