In the bowling department, Jofra Archer and Kartik Tyagi have been brilliant so far and they are getting good support from Rahul Tewatia and Shreyas Gopal in middle overs.
On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad has 6 points from 9 matches and they need to win this match to stay alive in the play-offs' race.
