After losing their initial two matches, Hyderabad have now won two games on the trot. Batter Harry Brook scored a brilliant century in the last match, whereas captain Aiden Markram is also looking in fine touch. If the bowlers of the side can perform well, this team can outperform other teams in the tournament.
Mumbai Indians are also looking in great touch, and they have won their last two matches. Batter Suryakumar Yadav finally came in form in the last match, whereas Ishan Kishan also looked in great touch. The bowling of the side has to improve.
Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium Hyderabad Pitch Report for SRH vs MI IPL 2023 Match
The track in Hyderabad has generally been a great surface for the batters. A total of eight matches were played here in IPL 2019, and the average first innings score was 171 runs. A couple of IPL matches have been played here this season as well.
Rajasthan Royals scored above 200 runs in the first match, but the pitch was a little different in the last match. The match between Hyderabad and Punjab was played on a black soil track, where the spinners had their say. Spinner Mayank Markande was brilliant with his leg-spin.
“Expect a little bit of swing with the new ball. Should spin a little bit more than we saw the other day. It’s devoid of grass as well. All in all, a pretty good surface,” Simon Doull said at the pitch report ahead of SRH vs PBKS match.
We can expect a good batting track in this match, where there will be an even amount of bounce. The spinners can certainly play a part in this match as well. Anything above 175 can be a good score here. The majority of the matches here have been won by the chasing teams, so the captains will prefer to bowl upon winning the toss.
