IPL Cricket Match Prediction 2024 | Match 23 | Punjab Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad – Will the SRH win the third victory in the tournament after defeating the PK? | April 09
In the twenty-third IPL 2024 match-up, PBKS will play SRH. On April 9, the game is scheduled to begin at 7:30 PM IST at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Chandigarh.
Punjab Kings discovered a new hero against Gujarat Titans in their previous match. Unknown outside the IPL, Shashank Singh hit 61 off 29 balls to aid PBKS in their pursuit of 201. While PBKS has occasionally displayed flashes of brilliance, the club has nearly always suffered due to uneven play.
It’s been the same way this season. Shikhar Dhawan is a reliable player who has met certain expectations, but his lack of runs from Sam Curran, Liam Livingstone, Jonny Bairstow, and Prabhsimran Singh has not been effective. Similar circumstances have applied to their bowling, as Kagiso Rabada has excelled but has yet to receive enough assistance from the other end.
Sunrisers Hyderabad, who have dropped two of their last four matches but still seem like a formidable team, will play PBKS. The players have been in devastating form, and SRH’s hitting lineup for this season appears to be among the finest in the competition. A formidable hitting lineup that includes Heinrich Klassen, Aiden Markram, Travis Head, and Abhishek Sharma makes it difficult to stop the hitters when they get hot. With the way SRH is currently playing, PBKS will need to outperform them to halt their onslaught.
Punjab Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Team Preview & Squads
Punjab Kings
With 138 runs so far this season, Shikhar Dhawan leads the PBKS in run scoring, although he hasn’t exactly lit the stage on fire. It will be difficult for PBKS to win a match if Shikhar Dhawan does not perform well because he is the team’s heart and soul.
Should they decide to bench Bairstow from the starting lineup, PBKS might take a bold approach and elevate Jitesh Sharma to the top spot. Although Jitesh Sharma is a clean striker of the cricket ball, he frequently does not face many balls. He may play a different role in the next matches according to PBKS. It will be an excellent opportunity for him to show off his real potential if that occurs.
For PBKS, Kagiso Rabada has been outstanding with the ball, claiming six wickets in four matches. The Chandigarh surface will be fast and bouncy, and PBKS has a pacer in Rabada who an expert at is taking advantage of fast bowling-friendly circumstances.
Travis Head has a polished appearance. Despite only having one fifty in four matches, he has ignited the team’s fire in each encounter. There can be mayhem in Chandigarh if Head stays there for a few overs.
So far, Abhishek Sharma has performed admirably for SRH. In four games, he has amassed 161 runs with a 217-strike rate. Thus far, Abhishek’s approach to playing aggressive cricket has proven effective. Because of the quick outfield and bouncy surface, the venue will encourage strokeplay, allowing Abhishek to have yet another fantastic performance.
Right now, it appears like Heinrich Klassen is playing in another world. Over and over, the batter has produced some incredible hits. In four games, he has amassed 177 runs at a 202-strike rate, with two fifties.
Although the bowlers in IPL 2024 have not fared well thus far, Cummins is an extremely intelligent bowler. It is an extremely uncommon trait to have the ability to alter one’s bowling style based on the situation. He made good use of his abilities and bowled short bursts against CSK, picking up a wicket for just 29 runs.
