IPL 2026: SRH vs LSG, Match 10 - Top player battles to watch out for

The Sunrisers Hyderabad take on the Lucknow Super Giants in Match 10 of the 2026 Indian Premier League at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad on April 5.

The Sunrisers play their first home game after two games on the road. They were comprehensively beaten by the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their opening game, before a comfortable win against the Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens.

The Lucknow Super Giants lost their opening game at the Ekana Stadium to the Delhi Capitals in a low-scoring affair, and will be looking to get their campaign underway with a victory. Both teams are filled with strong players, who come with fierce reputations and solid track records.

Here are three player battles for SRH vs LSG Match 9

3) Mitchell Marsh vs Harsh Dubey

Mitchell Marsh, with 627 runs, was Lucknow’s best batter in the 2025 season, setting the tone for their innings at the top of the order. Without bowling responsibilities, his batting has gone to another level. He top-scored in Lucknow’s innings against Delhi, with a 39 consisting of attractive shots and muscling the ball over the boundary. He is expected to continue his form for the Super Giants.

Up against him will be SRH’s left-arm spinner Harsh Dubey. With Marsh’s issues with spin, Dubey’s role as the lead spinner becomes key, as his bowling angles are expected to trouble the right-handed Aussie.
