Pitch Report
Pitches at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium are very good for batting, but the bowlers do stay in the game for long periods here in comparison to some other grounds in the country.

Team Analysis
Sunrisers Hyderabad
Sunrisers Hyderabad batting unit has been strengthened immensely with the century scored by Harry Brook in their previous match. SRH captain Aiden Markram and Heinrich Klaasen scoring quickly in the middle to end overs has ensured that SRH are always ahead of the run rate. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Marco Jansen controlling the powerplay phase and picking wickets at the same time for Sunrisers as well. But the biggest positive of all for Hyderabad is the return of Mayank Markande to the IPL with a bang.
SportsTiger Playing XI of SRH
Harry Brook, Mayank Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram (c), Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Marco Jansen, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, Umran Malik, T Natarajan (Potential Impact Substitute - Washington Sundar for Rahul Tripathi)
Mumbai Indians
Mumbai Indians needed their captain Rohit Sharma to score some big runs as he is a glue that keeps their batting together. His fifty against DC has allowed the team management some breathing space in the midst of intense criticism from their fans. Runs from the bat of Ishan Kishan, Tilak Varma, and Cameron Green have been very crucial for MI to keep their IPL 2023 season headed into the right direction. The good bowling returns from Piyush Chawla, Jason Behrendorff, and Riley Meredith have been a welcome change for Mumbai Indians.
