Preview

It is Delhi taking on Hyderabad in Qualifier 2 of the Indian T20 League on Sunday. Delhi lost the first match in the playoffs, Qualifier 1, against Mumbai by massive 57 runs. They won against Hyderabad in the playoffs last year and knocked them out. But this season, the story is different. Delhi have suffered five defeats in the last six games. They defeated Bangalore before coming into the playoffs but it wasn’t enough to boost their form and confidence.

Their top order failed once again followed by another failure of their middle order. Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer continued to disappoint their team and this time in the most important match of the season. However, their bowling also looked poor except Ravi Ashwin who kept taking wickets regularly. At the moment, they are highly unlikely to go through this strong in form Hyderabad team and play the giant Mumbai in the final.

On the other side, Hyderabad are at the top of their roll at the moment. They are coming off four consecutive wins including a solid victory against Bangalore in Eliminator. Their bowling attack destroyed Bangalore’s batting and a calm finish by Kane Williamson with Jason Holder helped them win the game. They are high on momentum and will be keen on continuing in the same vein.

They have a perfect pace attack with a new ball bowler in Sandeep Sharma, Holder and a yorker specialist in Natarajan. Rashid Khan and Nadeem have been top notch during the middle overs so far. They registered a big victory against Delhi last time around and are expected to beat them again to reach the final for the third time in four years.
