Sunrisers Hyderabad will square off against Delhi Capitals in the 31st match of the ongoing IPL 2026 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad on Tuesday. SRH won their last game against Chennai Super Kings after Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen scored fine fifties.
But the star of the show for the Orange Army was Ehsan Malinga, who returned with impressive figures of 3-29 in his quota of four overs.
SRH have gone hard with the bat and as their bowling is clicking, they have got the results in the last two games. However, Travis Head’s form is a cause of concern for the team. The Australian batter has managed only 143 runs in six matches and he would want to turn a corner.
On the other hand, Delhi Capitals won their last game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru by six wickets and they would look to build on the winning impetus. Tristan Stubbs has done a fine job for DC whereas their bowlers were also right on the money.
DC would want to be more consistent and come up with a collective performance. Their middle order needs to take the onus on their shoulders as it has been a hit and miss so far in the tournament.
Head to Head: Matches: 26, Won by DC: 12, Won by SRH: 13, No result: 1.
