Pandya played an important role in winning the 2022 title and reaching the final last year. The last match against Kolkata was washed out due to rain, but against Chennai Super Kings, the bowlers raised hopes by taking three wickets in the first three overs. The responsibility of providing a good start in batting will once again be on captain Shubman Gill and B Sai Sudarshan. David Miller has been out of form this season, but he would like to play a useful innings in the last match.
Hyderabad faced a crushing defeat in Gujarat
While Sunrisers have made incredible scores this season, they have also faced embarrassing defeats. Gujarat defeated them by 7 wickets in the tournament. They have lost three of their last five matches. Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated them by 35 runs, Chennai Super Kings by 78 runs and Mumbai Indians by seven wickets. In batting, the team is completely dependent on Head and Sharma. If they fail, their innings is disrupted, so Nitish Reddy, Heinrich Klaasen and Abdul Samad will have to perform better.
