SRH vs GT Highlights, IPL 2022: Williamson’s ice-cool 57 helps Sunrisers Hyderabad halt Gujarat Titans’ dream run

That’s all the action we have for you today! Thank you so much for joining us for the Match 21 of IPL 2022. We will be back tomorrow for the blockbuster game between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore. Until then, it’s goodbye.

“Might just be cramps for Rahul and hopefully he can recover quickly. Washington as well. Hopefully he can recover quickly as well. It is just about guys going out there and trying to perform for the team. It was a nice improved performance today.”

“Probably we wanted to get partnerships and we got that. The guys have been clear about the roles. There are a number of challenges. The execution was largely good. It was tough to hit through the line. Nice to get some partnerships and get across the line,” says Williamson about his team’s performance.

“Brian is here, you can’t have better batting conversations with him, he’s helping me tremendously, not just myself but a lot of youngsters in the team. You can see the progress as a batting unit as well. 

“The first over – it went wrong for us, but having said that, I felt that we restricted them really good. Dropped catches – that’s something we have to work on. 160-odd on that wicket was fabulous and all our bowlers did their part,” says Nicholas Pooran.

“IPL is tough so I tried to show some toughness. The blow (against Malik) woke me up. They bowled well and stuck to their plans, credit to them for the way they bowled. We need to learn from the mistakes, we will have a conversation and a laugh as we have out next game in a couple of days.”

Gujarat have dropped fifth on the points table. Hyderabad are currently eighth with fours points under their belt.

“I think batting wise we were 7-10 runs short, that would have made difference in the end. We started well with the ball, but those two overs where they scored 30 runs, got them back into the game,” says Hardik Pandya on the defeat.

Hardik also notched up a brilliant fifty but Williamson eclipsed the knock with a calculated knock while chasing. The Titans were perhaps 15-20 runs short on this wicket.

A well-paced knock from Williamson, who started off slowly but picked up pace to help Sunrisers Hyderabad notch up their second win of the season. Skipper Hardik Pandya suffers his first win in Gujarat Titans jersey!

Nicholas Pooran finishes with six over square leg. Sunrisers Hyderabad win by 8 wickets.

A very good strike. Markram finishes with a boundary straight down the ground. The scores are level!

Nicholas Pooran goes for the pull but doesn’t connect. Top-edge and flies away past the keeper anyway. Four more!

SRH 157/2

Hyderabad need 13 runs in 12 balls… and Shami is back into the attack. A win today will take Gujarat to the top but looks highly unlikely at the moment.

Short and Pooran hits that away for a six over square leg. Easy pickings! Ferguson is clearly under pressure now. 

SRH 146/2

Too easy for Pooran, who flicks away Ferguson for a boundary to fine leg. Poor from Ferguson.

SRH 139/2

Aiden Markram has joined Nicholas Pooran in a crunch situation. Hyderabad would be recalling those extras at this point. 28 needed off last three overs.

SRH 135/2

A twist in the tale? Hardik removes Williamson (57), who tries to go for a big hit. An easy catch for Rahul Tewatia.

Williamson has shown his experience and calculated batting approach tonight. Seems like he’s going to stay till the end. 34 needed off the last four overs!

SRH 129/1

Four more! Ferguson offers Williamson some width and the SRH skipper slashes it to deep extra cover.

SRH 128/1

Exquisite! What a way to bring up his fifty. Williamson uses the pace of Ferguson to paddle it over fine leg.

SRH 123/1

Last over for Rashid and he finishes with 1/28 from his four overs. Lockie Ferguson is up next! Expect some thunderbolts towards the end.

SRH 116/1

10 off Rahul Tewatia’s over and Hyderabad now require 55 runs off the last six overs. Hyderabad have a huge chance to revive their campaign and notch up second win of the season tonight.

SRH 108/1

Physios attended to Tripathi after he was on the floor… and he is walking towards the dugout. Pooran joins Williamson in the middle. 

Rahul Tewatia into the attack and Tripathi greets the “finisher” with a six over long-off. But he seems in discomfort after hitting the shot… and umpire calls for a time-out.

SRH 104/1

Williamson gets going! Back-to-back sixes for the Hyderabad skipper. Top-edge and the ball flies away over the ropes. Williamson then whacks one over the fine leg. 16 runs off the over to match the asking rate! Williamson’s presence is key for Hyderabad in this tricky chase.

Rashid switches ends but concedes just four. Some smiles in the middle during ‘Rashid vs Kane’ battle but the asking rate has crept to 10.12… and GT skipper Hardik is back into the attack. A wicket could be crucial at this moment.

SRH 82/1

Good comeback from Lockie Ferguson, who gives away just three after conceding 13 in his first over. Sunrisers still need 85 off the last nine overs. Gujarat are in hunt of a couple of more wickets.

SRH 78/1

Nalkande bowls it at the good length spot but Tripathi times it beautifully. Four through extra cover to relieve some pressure of Abhishek’s wicket. Ten overs gone.. and we are at the halfway mark.

SRH 75/2

A brilliant over from Rashid, who removed Abhishek with a quicker delivery. the SRH batter went for the big one but picked out Sudarshan at deep mid-wicket. Titans are back in the game!

SRH 66/1

WICKET! Rashid draws first blood. Abhishek falls for 42 in 163 chase.

Darshan Nalkande into the attack and he concedes three doubles and a single from the over. Williamson is cautious at the moment and seems like he wants to anchor the innings until the end. Hardik will expect a wicket from Rashid at this point.

SRH 58/0

Abhishek got an opportunity to free his arms and the youngster gets a boundary over extra cover. Rashid finishes with a googly… and it’s a dot ball. Nine off the leggie’s first over. 50 up for Hyderabad!

SRH 51/0

Hardik Pandya has introduced former SRH man Rashid Khan into the attack!

Extra pace from Ferguson is helping Abhishek! Fourth boundary of the over. Excellent over for Hyderabad… 17 off it as they reach 42/0 after the first six overs.

SRH 42/0

5.1: Lockie Ferguson into the attack in his 100th T20… and he’s greeted with a boundary by Abhishek. The youngster got enough elevation to get it over the in-field towards point.

5.2: Another one! He taps it to the sweeper cover and it races away to the boundary. He’s using Ferguson’s pace.

5.3: A hat-trick of boundaries! The floodgates are open after five tidy overs. He finds the gap through backward point.

A big over from Hyderabad to boost their dwindling run-rate. 14 from the fifth over bowled by Shami.

SRH 25/0

4.1: Short… and Williamson pulls that away for a four towards mid-on. First boundary of the innings!

4.2: A six off the next delivery! Williamson switches gears to hook it away over the long leg boundary. A 69m metre maximum versus Shami.

Hardik is also exerting pressure from the other end. He’s maintaining a perfect line against the opposition skipper. Just four off Hardik’s over.

SRH 11/0

Pressure seems to be building here. Shami is sticking to his Test match length, offering no room to Abhishek Sharma. Just one off the over and Hyderabad are off to a sedate start.

SRH 7/0

Some movement for the GT skipper. Sunrisers Hyderabad have a mediocre scoring rate in the powerplay and Gujarat will look to put some pressure on the opposition with some early wickets. 

Hardik maintains a tight line to concede just one from the over.

SRH 5/0

Hardik Pandya into the attack to bowl the second over.

On the pads and Williamson tucks that away on the leg side for a single. Pretty solid start from Gujarat. Disciplined Shami concedes just four from the first over.

SRH 4/0

Hardik registered his slowest fifty and Williamson also seems cautious at the start. A watchful leave from the Hyderabad skipper. He’s usually a slow starter

Williamson and Abhishek are set to open for Hyderabad! Will be interesting to see how dew plays its part tonight. Shami opens the attack for Gujarat. 163 runs needed in 20 overs.

“The stars were in the right place today. I got three chances, but I should have carried it on. I won’t get these many lives every day. We looked to play till the 17th over and then go after it. He was set, so I decided to go after,” says Manohar on his 35.

Put in to bat, Gujarat lost their last game’s hero Shubman Gill on just seven. Sai Sudharsan and Matthew Wade also perished cheaply. Hardik then put up a calculated fifty off 42 balls — an uncharacteristic but vital knock from the Gujarat Titans skipper.

22 extras from Sunrisers Hyderabad! We will have to wait to see if those hurt Williamson’s men.

What an over from Natarajan! He castles Rashid Khan on the last delivery as Gujarat Titans finish on 162/7 in 20 overs.

Sunrisers Hyderabad need 163 runs to win

Tewatia sacrifices his wicket! He perishes on six while trying to get a quick single… and Hardik reaches his 50 on the next delivery! A responsible knock from the skipper.

Manohar had all the luck tonight. He finally perished on 35 after Tripathi managed to pluck a difficult catch after dropping a sitter. Tewatia is the next man in.

GT 155/5

18.2: Dropped!!! Sloppy fieldwork and Manohar is riding his luck tonight. Tripathi puts it down at long-off.

18.5 Manohar finally departs! Caught by Tripathi, who covered decent ground to take the catch. He perishes after stitching a 50 stand with Hardik.

17.4: An attempted yorker but it turns out to be a low full toss! Manohar whacks it away into the stands. 

17.6: Four to sweeper cover! Manohar perfectly bisects the two fielders. Will Markram’s dropped catch prove costly later?

GT 148/4

Dropped! Manohar tried to go big but Markram puts it down. Do we blame the dew? 

Nine runs off Bhuvneshwar’s over. He still has one more over to go. Titans, on the other hand, have 18 deliveries to produce some late fireworks.

Edged and it travels to third man for a boundary. Abhinav is riding on his luck tonight. Fourth boundary for the Karnataka lad.

GT 131-4

Short delivery and sliced away! Manohar gets a much-needed boundary off the last ball and Jansen finishes with 1/27 in his four overs. 

GT 126/4

Hardik or Manohar will look to shift gears now. Gujarat Titans also have Tewatia and Rashid to produce some late fireworks.

Short and quick but Abhinav Manohar edges two consecutive deliveries! Freebies for Gujarat Titans. Those flew away and perhaps were too quick for the keeper too. Markram in the slips also stood clueless. Five more overs to go!

118/4

Hardik Pandya has had a good impact with his leadership but he will have to play a big knock tonight. He’s notched his highest score of the season but the job is only half done. He is joined by Abhinav Manohar.

GT 108/4

Abhishek Sharma, stationed at short mid-wicket, dived forward to take the catch… and Miller walks back on 12. Gujarat Titans lose their fourth wicket.

GT 104/4

13 off Umran Malik’s over. Miller steers the last delivery to the third man for a single.

GT 102-3

12.3: He will have to bowl that again. Pooran couldn’t do much there. Five wides!

12.3: Pitched up by Umran and Hardik timed it to perfection. A mini helicopter and Hardik gets a much-needed boundary.

Umran Malik is back into the attack and he continues his mini-battle with Hardik. He had started off with a fiery bouncer against the opposition skipper, who then hit two consecutive fours.

Smart move by Williamson. He has got Natarajan back into the attack to pile further pressure on Hardik and Miller.

Hardik and Miller dealing in singles at the moment. Just four from Washington Sundar’s over as Hyderabad tighten screws on both the batters. End of the 11th over.

GT 84/3

Umran Malik continues with his blistering pace. A 147.4 kph delivery to start with. Miller has joined Hardik in the middle.

Aiden Markram into the attack.. and Hardik whacks it over cow corner. 100th IPL six for the Gujarat Titans skipper! Nine overs gone and umpire signals for time-out.

GT 73/3

Malik’s thunderbolts have given him a wicket! He decided to bowl round the wicket and trapped Wade with a difficult angle. Onus on Hardik!

Fast and straight… and Umran traps Wade on 19. The Australian is happy to walk off! Third blow!

GT 64/3

7.2: What a response! Hardik drives it through covers for a four. Perfect timing.

7.3: Short and Hardik picked the length quickly! Pulls it away for a four. 

GT 63/2 

Umran Malik is into the attack and he starts with a fiery bouncer against Hardik! Right on the lid and Hardik was beaten by the pace there.

GT 55/2

Williamson has used his bowlers brilliantly so far. Sundar bowls his second over and gives away just four runs. Both Wade and Hardik would be tested tonight. No signs of Umran Malik yet!

GT 55/2

Uppish but well timed! A good stroke to get off the mark. Hardik hits it straight down the ground as Gujarat reach 51/2 after the first six overs.

GT 51-2

Up in the air and gone!!! Extra bounce and Sudharsan mishits it to Williamson to mid-off. 

Extra bounce and it races away to the boundary. Sudharsan gets a thick top-edge off Jansen’s delivery.

GT 40/1

Six off Washington’s over and experienced Wade has a big task on the hands. Sai Sudharsan has joined him in the middle. Two left-handers at the crease.

 GT 36/1

Washington Sundar into the attack and Wade reverse sweeps it to backward point. Seemed like it was an opportunity for Abhishek Sharma, who put down a difficult catch. Four more!

GT 35/1

Gill sliced it powerfully but Tripathi pulled off a one-handed stunner to remove the young batter! First wicket for Bhuvneshwar after his nightmarish 17-run over. He concedes just seven in the next over… Huge blow to Gujarat!

GT 30/1

Sensational! What a catch! Tripathi takes a blinder to remove Gill early. First blow for Gujarat. 

GT 24/1

A quick single to end the over. A soft tap to the off side, and Gill and Wade put some pressure on the fielders with some singles. Seven off the Jansen’s over.

GT 24/0

Marco Jansen is into the attack after Bhuvneshwar’s 17-run over… and Gill welcomes him with a boundary on the second delivery. He lofts it in the mid-wicket region and it travels comfortably to the boundary rope. First four for the youngster.

GT 21/0

More freebies! Another delivery that goes down the leg, long way off where it needs to be. Pooran just watches it go to the boundary rope. 17 off the first over and the Titans are off to a good start.

GT 17/0

0.1: Couple of slips at the place but Wade nicks it past the fielders. Four to third man off the first delivery!

0.2: Wide down the leg and the Titans have been presented with four wides! Nicholas Pooran had no chance there.

GT 9/0

Couples of speed merchants to watch tonight! Ferguson and Malik are expected to bowl some fiery deliveries. Umpires are making their way into the middle. Sunrisers’ players are also on the field. Bhuvneshwar will start the proceedings with the ball against Shubman Gill and Matthew Wade.

“Obviously it’s great to learn from Dale Steyn. As a youngster, I’ve come here to try and learn as much as possible from him because he knows the conditions quite well. He played here more than a few times, so great to spend some time with him and obviously been learning a lot,” says SRH pacer Marco Jansen.

Rashid was spotted having a chat with his former skipper Williamson after the toss. The Afghanistan spinner is likely to pose a threat to Hyderabad batters irrespective of the surface.

“Important to create a good culture for a new franchise. Ashish Nehra jokes even during tough times and that helps as well. My role is to use the new ball well. When you have so many options in the team, you need to go for wickets upfront,” says Shami. 

Both teams haven’t tinkered with the winning combination! It will be Shubman Gill-Matthew Wade pair at the start. Shubman, who has scored 180 runs so far, is currently third in the Orange Cap race. He will look to notch up his third consecutive fifty-plus score

“We got the results because we followed our plans. We need to show that we are out there to fight,” says Hardik.

“Tewatia is right up there right now. It shows a lot of courage and character to do the same things day in and day out. Very happy for him and for the team as well. Same team.”

Matthew Wade(w), Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, Hardik Pandya(c), David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Abhinav Manohar, Rashid Khan, Lockie Ferguson, Mohammed Shami, Darshan Nalkande

Abhishek Sharma, Kane Williamson(c), Rahul Tripathi, Nicholas Pooran(w), Aiden Markram, Shashank Singh, Washington Sundar, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Marco Jansen, Umran Malik, T Natarajan

“We’re going to bowl. There is a potential dew factor, and we’ll look to chase it in the end. We saw improvement in the second match and then in the third, and hopefully we can improve further over here. We have to be adaptable, playing at the different grounds and we need to adjust. Same XI,” says Williamson.

Sunrisers Hyderabad have won the toss and opted to bowl first!

Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Natarajan are a crucial part of the Hyderabad bowling camp but they will be up against the might of Gujarat, who have been impressive despite not having a lot of specialist batters in the eleven. Toss coming up in minutes… Stay tuned!

“Very back to get back to the original speed after a back injury. Sometimes, players hold back after their return but he’s been bowling at the same pace,” says former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan on Hardik’s comeback.

We are minutes away from the toss! Both skippers to continue with the “Win the toss, elect to bowl” trend? Hardik is the only unbeaten captain in the competition so far.

“A change in the pitch from the last game. There’s a covering of grass, but not very even, it’s a bit patchy. There will be bounce on offer. The batters need to score runs square of the wicket, and not straight down the ground. The wicket looks pretty dry, so the spinners will come into play,” says Daren Ganga about the wicket.

Hyderabad can try out either Shreyas Gopal or J Suchith to reinforce their spin attack. They also have Kartik Tyagi in the wings.

It remains to be seen whether the teams tinker with the winning combination. But both will look to iron out chinks. We can also see a debut this evening.

In the IPL 2022 game against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Punjab Kings had chased down 206 total — the highest team total at the venue. It was the highest successful run-chase and we anticipate a high-scoring contest tonight. 

The IPL newbies will head into the game with a lot of confidence. They have ticked all boxes so far and a fourth straight win will further consolidate their position in the top-four bracket.

Before the start of the IPL 2022, there was a lot of speculation about captain Hardik’s fitness. He has made a strong return and many believe he walks straight into the T20 World Cup squad. He’s bowled his four overs in all three matches so far.

Mohammed Shami has dismissed Kane Williamson three times in the IPL. The Sunrisers Hyderabad captain averages just 9.67 against Shami. An exciting powerplay battle on the cards!

Hardik need to showcase his tactical acumen against Hyderabad tonight! He has earned praise from former India head coach Ravi Shastri, who heaped praise on his ability to captain a team.

“Right before this IPL, the question that was asked about a lot of young captains – the word was KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant. Add Hardik Pandya. Don’t take your eye off the ball there guys. This guy can lead a side,” Shastri said on ESPNcricinfo.

Shubman Gill has scored 180 runs in three innings at an impressive average of 60 and a strike rate of 166.66, and Titans skipper Hardik Pandya was all praise for the talented batter.

“Gill has been telling everybody that he is there. A lot of credit goes to Sai as well,” said Hardik after a six-wicket win over Punjab Kings.

Lockie Ferguson will be playing his 100th T20 game tonight! The quick has taken five wickets so far in the ongoing competition and he will look to make the occasion memorable. He has got the company of Mohammed Shami, who remains a vital cog in Gujarat’s wheel. The Indian has picked up six wickets in three games.

Will the Titans play another Afghanistan player tonight? Rahmanullah Gurbaz has scored 551 runs in 25 T20s since 2021. He has got the ability to steer the team to a good start in first six overs. The wicketkeeper-batter can be a useful addition if he replaces Matthew Wade in the eleven.

Gujarat Titans in last three IPL games:

vs PBKS: Won by 6 wickets

vs DC: Won by 14 runs

vs LSG: Won by 5 wickets

Sunrisers Hyderabad in their last five IPL games:

vs CSK: Won by eight wickets

vs LSG: Lost by 12 runs

vs RR: Lost by 61 runs

vs MI: Lost by 42 runs

vs RCB: Won by 4 runs

We haven’t seen his best so far but Abdul Samad has been backed by many pundits. He was among the retained players and the Sunrisers Hyderabad will look to repay the faith shown in him by the franchise. He has scored 4 and 0 in his two outings so far in the season.

The winning captain would want to chase as toss has proved crucial so far in the tournament. The dew is also expected to play its role tonight. 

Titans’ player Alzarri Joseph had a fairytale start to the IPL. The Antiguan on debut in Mumbai Indians jersey had registered the best ever IPL figures of 6/12. Incidentally, it was against Sunrisers Hyderabad, who were bundled out for 96 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. He could also play his first game for the Gujarat outfit tonight.

Gujarat had handed debuts to Sai Sudharsan and Darshan Nalkande and both showed spark in the previous game. Sudharshan teamed up with Gill to keep the scoreboard ticking. He scored 35 off 30 balls. Nalkande took two wickets for 37 runs in his three overs. He removed Jitesh Sharma and Odean Smith off consecutive deliveries.

“Bowling to someone like Kane is always a huge pleasure. We enjoyed the competition in the nets where we both tried to beat each other. It’s a lovely contest and Kane will love to see that,” says Rashid on facing his former teammate.

Who can take out Rahul Tewatia from the equation! Needing 12 runs in two balls, Tewatia smashed the last two balls of the innings in the stands, helping Gujarat secure a thriller on Friday. He fetched a ₹9 crore paycheque in the February auction and the magical knock proved that he is worth every single penny.

Hardik Pandya has been impressive in his new IPL spell. He’s shown his captaincy prowess and secured the No. 4 batting spot. In a big boost to the Titans’ bowling plans, Hardik has also bowled a full quota of four overs in all three of the team’s matches.

“I am going to get better with every game. I am getting tired as I’m not used to bowling four overs. But I’m getting better,” said Hardik after the win over Punjab.

Shubman Gill will need support from his opening partner Matthew Wade, who has not been able to score a big inning so far. The Titans could also try out Rahmanullah Gurbaz of Afghanistan or Wriddhiman Saha at the top.

The spotlight will be on Shubman Gill, who has been in brilliant touch. A shin injury kept him away from the game but the youngster seems in brilliant touch with his new IPL franchise. He has scored 180 runs in the last two matches.

Matthew Wade(w), Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, Hardik Pandya(c), David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Abhinav Manohar, Rashid Khan, Lockie Ferguson, Mohammed Shami, Darshan Nalkande, Jayant Yadav, Vijay Shankar, Varun Aaron, Wriddhiman Saha, Pradeep Sangwan, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Alzarri Joseph, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Dominic Drakes, Yash Dayal, Noor Ahmad

To put some early pressure on the formidable batting unit of Gujarat, Sunrisers have Washington Sundar, who can keep the opposition in check with his disciplined bowling. Washington has picked up four wickets in his last two games. He can bowl in the powerplay as well.

If Hyderabad tinker with their combination, we can also see Kartik Tyagi making his debut! He will likely replace Umran Malik in the eleven.

On the bowling front, Hyderabad are equipped with Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan. They also have the raw pace of Umran Malik, who will enjoy the speed battle against Lockie Ferguson tonight. Both have the ability to clock 150 kph on a consistent basis. Expect some thunderbolts!

The spotlight will also be on Nicholas Pooran, who is yet to deliver to his full potential. Pooran, who is known for his attacking prowess, was picked up by Sunrisers Hyderabad for ₹10.75 crore in the February auction. He can tonk those big sixes when needed!

Kane Williamson (c), Nicholas Pooran (wk), Abhishek Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram, Shashank Singh, Washington Sundar, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Marco Jansen, Umran Malik, T Natarajan, Shreyas Gopal, Jagadeesha Suchith, Ravikumar Samarth, Glenn Phillips, Vishnu Vinod, Priyam Garg, Kartik Tyagi, Romario Shepherd, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Abdul Samad, Saurabh Dubey

While Williamson and Abhishek steered Hyderabad to a steady start, Rahul Tripathi also notched up an unbeaten 39 off only 15 balls against a star-studded Chennai side. He has been a reliable alternative at the No. 3 spot and Tripathi will look to an encore.

Tripathi was instrumental for his previous franchise, scoring at a healthy strike rate of 141.96, which is the best at the No. 3 batting spot. He can maximize the powerplay against Gujarat.

Openers Abhishek Sharma (75) and Kane Williamson (32) stitched a crucial 89-run partnership against Chennai. But the pair will face a stiff challenge against Gujarat, who have one of the most lethal bowling attacks in the league.

Sunrisers Hyderabad as they thrashed defending champions Chennai Super Kings by 8 wickets and Williamson said he would like to see his team ‘improve’ with every game.

“Every game you play is tough. We want to keep on improving. Although it’s our first win, we had to look on some of the things we’d done right in the previous game. Staying calm and staying on task. For us it’s focusing on our cricket and play smart,” he said in the post-match presentation.

Sunrisers, who got a win after a horrendous start to their campaign, would like to keep improving with every game. Williamson got a start and would be keen to score a big one against Gujarat. He will enjoy the company of Abhishek Sharma, who got a match-winning 75 against Chennai Super Kings.

Sunrisers Hyderabad, who have managed to win just one game so far, will have their task cut out at the DY Patil Stadium. Kane Williamson-led batting unit will be up against a lethal bowling attack comprising the likes of Mohammed Shami, Lockie Ferguson and Rashid Khan.

Hello and welcome to the live coverage of IPL 2022 Match 21 between Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Gujarat Titans. The weekend action produced some exciting cricket but the IPL is back again to help you beat the Monday blues! An exciting game is on the cards between high-flying Gujarat and under-pressure Hyderabad at the DY Patil Stadium, Mumbai. Stay tuned for live updates!
