Players To Watch Out:
Atharva Taide: The 24 years old youngster have represented Punjab Kings in the last 2 season but did not get enough chances. But in those limited opportunities, he has shown spark and might become a big thing if SRH gives him a long rope.
Kamindu Mendis: The 26 year old have almost played 100 T20s, scoring close to 2000 Runs and also took 17 wickets. He has already proved himself in Test Cricket for Sri Lanka. Debuting in this cash rich league, Mendis can be the latest sensation in an already explosive batting lineup. With Cummins, Head and Klaasen set to be in the Starting XI, he will have struggle to find a place battling with Adam Zampa though.
Best Playing XI:
Based on their Squad, Their Best Playing XI should be:-
Travis Head
Abhishek Sharma
Ishan Kishan (WK)
Nitish Kumar Reddy
Heinrich Klaasen
Kamindu Mendis
Atharva Taide
Abhinav Manohar
Pat Cummins (C)
Harshal Patel
Mohammad Shami
Impact: Rahul Chahar
Our Prediction:
With a perfect balance of explosive batting and dangerous bowling, SRH looks the Top Contender to Lift the Trophy. They failed last time in the final, but this time they can do it.
