SRH vs DC Match Prediction: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Delhi Capitals, 34th Match of IPL 2023
SRH vs DC Match Prediction: Sunrisers Hyderabad will host Delhi Capitals at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad, on April 24, 2023.
Sunrisers Hyderabad will try to bounce back in the winnings ways against the Delhi Capitals after losing two previous back-to-back matches against Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings. In their last match, they lost to Chennai Super Kings by 7 wickets because of their bad batting performance, which has been the story of Sunrisers Hyderabad IPL Campaign till now, and still, they are not been able to solve it.
Sunrisers Hyderabad team needs to change Harry Brook with someone else because they gave him 7 matches to show his potential, but he showed that in just one match, which was against the Kolkata Knight Riders as he scored a century in that match but before and after that he has been not useful.
Sunriser’s management needs to rethink their batting lineup and options because now they are almost at the bottom of the table, and there are not many matches left to play. Their bowling department is also having some issues, which they need to sort out soon. It is going to be the best chance of comeback they can get against the team who just won one match out of six.
Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, had their first win of the season after losing their first 5 matches in a row, but in the end, they got the win that they needed because they were the only team who did not have a single point in the table before the match.
Delhi Capitals won the match against the Kolkata Knight Riders in a low-scoring match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. David Warner once again led his side to perfection as he scored 57 runs and this time with a bit better strike rate, but still, once again, the batting collapsed. Somehow they were able to pass the test and won the match by 4 wickets.
All the Delhi Capitals coaches were really happy about the win, and Sourav Ganguly said in the post-match interview that it was like his first run in the test match.
“We were on the luckier side today. We bowled well before as well this season. But the problem is the batting. We need to go back and look at ourselves and see how we can get better. Spinners bowled well. I know we have not played well and need to find a way to bat better. We work hard with the boys and get them back in form. Be it Prithvi, Manish, or Mitch Marsh. They have been important players and around for a while for their respective teams. We have a day off tomorrow and then fly to Hyderabad, hopefully, it will be a good batting wicket there, as it usually is,”
“Happy to get off the mark. I was sitting there in the dugout and thinking it was like getting my first Test run (about the pressure to get their first points of the season).
Sourav Ganguly said in the post match interview
It will be exciting to see David Warner playing against his previous team, which treated him badly two years back, even though he was one of the best players and a great captain under whom they once won the IPL trophy.
After the match, Delhi Capitals had a lot of talks, and there was an amazing scene in the dressing room where David Warner cheered all the Delhi Capitals staff and players.

The pitch offers everything as Spinners, pacers, and batters enjoyed their game in the first match. It is one of the best neutral pitches on which players’ ability will decide their performance, not the pitch going to favor the type of players.
In recent times, the Pitch at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium favored spinners more than batters and pacers. But as this will be the first match, that pitch will be new, and we can see a few good scoring totals of around 160-170, but later on, we will see the spinners leading the match. The first match played on this pitch was between SunRisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals, which was one-sided.
The last match played on this pitch was between Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians, in which the pitch favored pace bowlers more than spinners which was the opposite of the first match played on the stadium, which shows that different pitches on this ground hold a different character.
Team Preview of Sunrisers Hyderabad
Sunrisers Hyderabad is at the 2nd to bottom of the table with just two wins and 4 losses. They need to get in a winning run after losing their two previous matches. Their batting lineup is not in a great situation as the team’s top scorer is Harry Brook, who scored 156 runs in 6 matches with an average of 26, which clearly shows that SRH team batters are not scoring any runs.
Rahul Tripathi is not looking in form as he scored just 145 runs in 6 matches, whereas he has a great IPL record in the past few seasons. He scored 413 runs in 14 matches last season with an average of 37. The strike rates of Sunrisers Hyderabad batters are way down, and only Aiden Markram has a better strike rate.
Mayanka Markande and Marco Jansen are the only ones who are able to take wickets regularly, but other bowlers are not at their best because they are just being very expensive with their economy rate. It is very unfortunate to see why they are not giving a chance to Adil Rashid, who was one of the main bowlers for the England Cricket team in the World Cup T20 in 2022.
Sunrisers Hyderabad should give an opening chance to Glenn Philips as he is a better striker of the ball than Harry Brook and also an amazing fielder.
They have issues in every department, and the team management is not doing their work well, which makes the team face selection issues. Aiden Markram is not really looking in good touch as he only scored 121 runs in just 5 matches, but the good thing is that his strike rate is better.
“Disappointed again, never nice to lose. Not good with the bat, couldn’t build partnerships and then you struggle to put in a good total. We certainly thought this wasn’t a 130 wicket, it was more around 160,”
Markram said after the loss in post match presentation.
Sunrisers Hyderabad needs to work as a unit else they will not be going to reach the playoff because they are looking weakest team in the IPL 2023. The team management not picked any genuine all-rounder for the team, which is one of the most surprising things for most of the ex-cricketers who also talked about it because no team becomes successful without a good all-rounder.

Team Preview of Delhi Capitals
Delhi Capitals are the bottom-table team who just got one win and 5 losses in 6 matches. They still have a huge issue with the batting lineup, even though they won their previous match by 4 wickets. Except for David Warner, no one else is scoring runs for the team. Axar Patel, who is a bowling allrounder, has the second-highest runs till now, which clearly shows that the Delhi side is in huge trouble with batting.
The Delhi team bowling unit is doing pretty well, and in recent matches, they were able to restrict the opposition team to a low score, but still, they failed to chase it. Anrich Nortje and Kuldeep Yadav take wickets regularly in every match.
In the previous match, Ishant Sharma showed everyone that he still got it in him and gave the player of the match performance, picking up two wickets and giving just 19 runs in his four-over spell.
Mitchell Marsh and Prithvi Shaw are in the worst batting form as they are not able to clear the 15-run mark. In his four matches, he was able to score just 6 runs, which is the worst he could get because, during India vs Australia, Marsh was in top form, scoring in every match with a strike rate of more than 200. The middle order of the Delhi Capitals is in disaster.
It is still confusing why they are even giving more and more chances to Prithvi Shaw and not giving a chance to Rilee Rossouw. Lungi Ngidi is still not getting his chance in the Delhi Capital side. He should get a chance in the match between SRH vs DC.
