DC finally manages to break their losing streak against KKR. They just won the match at the last end. They chased a below par score but it was difficult for them to get over it.
David Warner again showed his great class of batting. He is 2nd in the list of orange cap. He also manages to pump up his strike rate. Axar Patel too contributed in batting. Except for these two players none of the other batters showed improvement. Prithvi Shaw’s chain of low scores is continuing. His weakness against spinners is showing easily and he failed to tackle them. Manish Pandey came in the middle order and he also failed to score runs. His record against Bhuvneshwar is also not so good and he has to play against him. Marsh and Salt also did not contribute much to the team.
Bowlers did a fantastic job during their last match. They restrict to a below score. Ishant Sharma was too good with the new ball. Due to his tight line and length he grabbed 2 wickets by conceding only 19 runs and was awarded player of the match. Kuldeep, Axar and Nortje also bowled economical spells and each of them grabbing 2 wickets. Team is hoping that the performance will again be repeated against SRH.

After back to back 2 wins their flow of win vanishes and they lost 2 back to back matches. They were easily defeated by CSK in the last match.
Sunrisers‘ flop show of batsmen continues. Harry Brook, except his ton against KKR he did not contribute anything much to the team. He is struggling to make runs. Mayank Agarwal was given the role of finisher in the last match but he failed there also. His back to back low scoring runs increases the headache of the management. Rahul Tripathi too except in one match he also failed to establish high runs. Aiden Markram back to back two low scores makes him improve his side of contribution.
Looking at their bowling lineup they also failed to stop the opposition from scoring high runs. Mayank Markande is the only bowler from the side who somehow manages to provide wickets along with some economical spells. Bhuveshwar also remained wicketless in the last match. Jansen was expensive in his spell. Team is hoping that Umran and Washington Sundar will contribute something with the bowl.
