Sunrisers Hyderabad will lock horns against Gujarat Titans in the 66th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League 2024 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad on Thursday. SRH have played an aggressive brand of cricket and they should be able to confirm their playoffs berth if they continue to play in a similar fashion.
With seven wins in 12 matches, the Orange Army has excelled under the leadership of Pat Cummins, who was bought for a huge sum of INR 20.50 crores in the IPL 2023 mini-auction.
Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma have been the flag-bearers of the team’s aggressive play as they have taken the bulls by its horns. The pugnacious batting duo had chased down 166 runs off just 9.4 overs in the previous match against LSG with Head smashing 89 and Sharma clobbering 75.
Ergo, SRH has ticked the right boxes and they will confirm their playoffs berth if go on to beat the Titans.
On the other hand, the Titans were knocked out of the tournament after their last match against Kolkata Knight Riders was abandoned as rain played a killjoy.
The Titans have failed to come up with a collective show, managing only five wins in 13 games.
Match Prediction: Sunrisers Hyderabad will enter the contest as favorites against Gujarat Titans.
