Sunrisers Hyderabad Review

The team looks so strong when we start looking at their top-order batsmen. Probably, they have the most destructive opening pairs in the IPL, in the form of skipper Warner and Bairstow. Their middle-order might be a problem this season as well.  Alongside Williamson, there is no experienced guy that can put the team in a decent situation in case their top order baffles. The team has specialist T20 bowlers like Rashid, Mujeeb, and Bhuvi. Sandeep Sharma and Bhuvi can trouble the batsman with their swinging deliveries. This makes their team look relatively stronger than any other team, and altogether they will go with their best line-up in the game against Kohli-led XI.

Royal Challengers Bangalore Review

Virat Kohli, AB De Villiers, and Glenn Maxwell, they have three most trusted T20 batsmen in their side. If anyone among them can make their inning big, then they can take the game further away from their opponents. Devdutt Paddikal is a young prodigy who is shining nowadays, and there will be some onus on him as well to give the team a thumping start. In the bowling unit, they have experienced Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar, who are so miser in terms of giving runs. It will be interesting to see how the inexperienced Indian pacers take the game in their favour.
