IPL T20 70th Match Review
Both teams, SRH and Punjab, are out of the race for a play-off and this match is just a formality. IPL 2022 was not impressive for Hyderabad and PBKS. SRH had played thirteen games with only six wins to their name. He had lost seven games and is eighth on the points list. On the other hand, PBKS is the other team that also played thirteen matches in IPL 2022. They also won six and lost seven matches. They are in seventh place on the table. Both are equal on points with Kolkata and SRH but are better on net run rate than Punjab. This match will be very interesting as both teams performed equally in IPL 2022 and are also equally strong. Some IPL prediction providers are opting for SRH, but we think PBKS will win this game.
Sunrisers Hyderabad
SRH is a strong batting team but unfortunately they were not impressive in IPL 2022. The main reason why they lost so many games was the failure of the Hyderabad batting division. They made some significant changes to the batting order and also gave a shot to some of the new bench force players in the most recent game against Mumbai. Very interesting that game they won by a margin of only three runs. Abhishek Sharma and Priyam Garg led off the inning for SRH. Rahul Tripathi, Nicholas Pooran, Markram, Kane Williamson But 193 runs from 20 overs. Rahul Tripathi was the most successful batsman in the previous match with 76 runs to his name on 44 balls using bounding nines and three huge sixes.
Priyam Garg also performed well with the bat, scoring 42 runs from just 26 balls and breaking four boundaries and two huge sixes in his inning. Nicholas Pooran was the other batter who was good with the bat.
Pooran scored 38 runs with a strike rate of 172. SRH’s bowling division is also strong and experienced and has secured the services of top bowlers in IPL 2022 auctions. Umran Malik was Hyderabad’s star bowler. He has good line and length and good speed too. He was the top ground taker at IPL 2022 from SRH side. Fazalhaq Farooqi, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Washington Sundar, T Natarajan and Abhishek Sharma are the other bowlers with Hyderabad. Umran Malik was the best bowler in the previous match with three wickets to his name in four overs for just 23 runs.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar was also good in the previous match taking a wicket in four overs while being charged for 26 runs. Washington Sundar was the other bowler to pick a wicket in four overs, but leak a lot of runs. He was charged with 36 runs in four overs. Abhishek Sharma, T Natarajan and Fazalhaq Farooqi were the bowlers who couldn’t pick wickets. T Natarajan was the most expensive bowler leaking 60 runs in four overs.
Punjab Kings
PBKS is the other team that has the services of the best batsmen as they have chosen the most experienced batsmen from the T20 format of cricket in the IPL 2022 auctions. They have batsmen like Jonny Bairstow, Shikhar Dhawan, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Liam Livingstone, Mayank Agarwal, Jitesh Sharma, Harpreet Brar and Rishi Dhawan. All of these batters had disappointed their fans. They could only score 142 runs while chasing the 160-run goal. Jitesh Sharma was the top scorer from the previous match with 44 runs to his name on 34 balls using three limits and two huge sixes.
Jonny Bairstow also performed well with the bat, scoring 28 runs from just 15 balls. He broke four limits and a huge six in his inning. Rahul Chahar was the other batsman to perform well with the bat, scoring 25 runs, while Shikhar Dhawan has 19 runs to his name. We think the management of PBKS will test some of the new batters off the bench in this game as they have nothing to lose.
PBKS’ bowling division didn’t play too much of a role in the team’s win, either. We are not saying that the Punjab batting order is weak. Khaleel Ahmed and Anrich Nortje lead the Punjab bowling division with Lalit Yadav, Shardul Thakur, Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav. Shardul Thakur was the biggest wicket taker in the previous match but leaked a lot of runs. He took four wickets in four overs for 36 runs. Axar Patel also performed well on the ball, taking two wickets in four overs and giving up 14 runs. Kuldeep Yadav also took two wickets when he leaked 14 runs in three overs. Anrich Nortje took a wicket, while Khaleel Ahmed and Lalit Yadav were the bowlers who couldn’t pick a wicket. They have some of the best bowlers on the bench and we are sure they will use some new bowlers in this match.
