After defeating Kolkata Knight Riders in a high-scoring encounter, Sunrisers Hyderabad will square off against Mumbai Indians in their next IPL 2023 match on Tuesday. The 2016 champions posted a mammoth score of 228/4 in 20 overs as Harry Brook hit his maiden century of the season. Later, KKR were restricted to 205/7 despite Nitish Rana and Rinku Singh scoring 75 and 58* respectively. They are likely to go ahead with the same playing XI as the Aiden Markram-led side prepares to face the five-time champions in Hyderabad.
Sunrisers found new heroes in Harry Brook and Abhishek Tripathi to register two wins in their last two matches.
While Brooke finally lived up to the expectations with a 55-ball 100 against KKR, Tripathi smashed a 48-ball 74 against Punjab Kings to take the team home.
Captain Aiden Markram’s contribution in both the matches has been crucial as he has been at the other end with scores of 50 and 37 in the last two matches.
However, Mayank Agarwal has stuck out like a sore thumb with his lack of runs at the top.
Among the bowlers, spinner Mayank Markande has been the highest wicket-taker for SRH with six wickets, while Umran Malik, Marco Jansen and Bhuvneshwar Kumar have also troubled the opposition.
SRH Predicted XI vs MI: Harry Brook, Mayank Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram (c), Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Washington Sundar, Marco Jansen, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Umran Malik, T Natarajan
