Analysis
Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma have lit up the IPL 2024 season with their explosive batting performances, allowing Sunrisers Hyderabad to post big totals on the board regularly in the tournament. On the bowling side of things, the captain Pat Cummins has been exceptional for SRH, while the likes of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natrajan have chipped in with valuable wickets at various stages of the season.
On the other hand, Punjab Kings will be missing their stand-in captain in their final group game of the IPL 2024 season after he put together an impressive all-round performance to help beat Rajasthan Royals. Harshal Patel, who holds the Purple cap currently in the IPL, has been at the forefront of the best bowling performances from PBKS this year, with the likes of Rahul Chahar and Arshdeep Singh making a couple of key contributions with the ball as well.
