SRH vs MI 2019: 3 Player Battles to look forward to
SRH vs MI 2019: The Sportsrush presents before you three intriguing player battles ahead of the 19th match of IPL 2019.
The Sunrisers are on a roll winning 3 matches and would like to maximise their points while their overseas contingent is still available to them. With uncertainty looming over Williamson’s availability, the SRH have to improve their middle order batting if they are to go a long distance in this tournament.
The Mumbai Indians have come back with a comprehensive win against defending champions, CSK. They now have won 2 and lost 2 matches. It is imperative for the Mumbai team to make use of the previous win as a confidence booster and get a few points under their belt.
Mohammad Nabi vs Quinton de Kock
Nabi has managed to pick up as many as 6 wickets in just 2 matches. He is known to be economical during the powerplay overs and pick up wickets on the flattest of surfaces like the ones in Australia during the BBL. He has looked dangerous and Quinton de Kock would be his target in this match considering that he is a left hander and the offie can trouble him with his spin.
De Kock, who generally is confident against spin, might invite a dismissal if he decides to be his aggressive self against the veteran Afghani all-rounder.
David Warner vs Jason Behrendorff
This player battle between the two Aussies would be exciting to watch. While David Warner has been in the form of his life smashing all the bowlers around the park, Jason Behrendorff has impressed everyone with his pace, swing and bounce on his IPL debut against the Super Kings.
When they face off against each other on Saturday evening, it is bound to be an exciting contest. Who prevails remains to be seen.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar vs Rohit Sharma
The battle of the skippers will go beyond who will lead their troops better. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Rohit Sharma are amazing in their respective roles. Bhuvneshwar Kumar has rediscovered his swing and accuracy in the previous match. If he can manage to make the ball talk again, Rohit Sharma will be in for some trouble at the top of the order.
He was been susceptible to the swinging delivery and an accurate line and length by Bhuvneshwar could mean curtains for the MI skipper’s innings.
