The first match showed just why this Sunrisers team is a threat, as they smashed runs with ease. Lucknow were shocked with a last-over heist and need a win to bounce back, but they could be put under pressure by an aggressive Hyderabad side. I am putting my money on SRH scoring the most 6s.

Head to Head

The Lucknow Super Giants have a 3-1 win-loss record against the Sunrisers Hyderabad.

It is the Hyderabad side, though, that won the most recent H2H. It was at this venue last season, and the Sunrisers chased down 166 in just 9.4 overs with all wickets intact.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Form

The Sunrisers are trying to go one better than last season, where they finished runners-up, and have started this season well. A 44-run win over the Rajasthan Royals in the second match of the tournament was a statement of intent from them.

Ishan Kishan’s sparkling century (106 off 47 balls) and Travis Head’s aggressive start (67 off 31) lifted them to 286 for 6 while batting first, with 94 runs coming from the powerplay.

That chase didn’t quite pick up, although the Royals gave a good fight by reaching 242 for 6. Harshal Patel’s 2 for 34 and Simarjeet Singh’s 2 for 46 were the standouts for Hyderabad.

Hyderabad played the first match with Adam Zampa as the impact sub, and Wiaan Mulder could come in if his seam bowling variety is considered to be an advantage.

Lucknow Super Giants Form

Lucknow Super Giants wanted a good start to their era under Rishabh Pant but lost to Delhi Capitals by one wicket in Visakhapatnam on Monday.

The Super Giants posted 209 for 8 batting first, with Mitchell Marsh (72 off 36) and Nicholas Pooran (75 off 30) adding 87 runs for the second wicket. They should have scored more but lost their way late in the innings.

It seemed the Super Giants had the game under control with Delhi at 113 for 6 after 12.3 overs. The Capitals closed the match in the last over with Ashutosh (66* off 31 balls) surprising Lucknow.

Verdict

Sunrisers Hyderabad v Lucknow Super Giants - T20

Hyderabad started this season where they finished the last, being aggressive from ball one. That could once again continue here, and big hits are expected to flow easily. I am backing Hyderabad to hit the most 6s of the match.
