Sunrisers Hyderabad, led by Aiden Markram, has had a forgettable start to this season of the IPL. They have won only two out of six matches played so far, with negligible margins. SRH’s batting performance has let them down in several matches, and none of their batters have found their form yet. Despite bowling being their strength, SRH’s bowlers have failed to win matches. They have been unable to stop batsmen from scoring runs in the death overs and have also failed to defend targets.
On the other hand, the Delhi Capitals have had a poor start to their IPL season 16 campaign, having won only one game out of six matches. Apart from captain David Warner and all-rounder Axar Patel, no other batters have shown the required temperament. DC’s batters are struggling to find their form, including players such as Mitchell Marsh and Manish Pandey. Meanwhile, except for Anrich Nortje, who has been performing well in bowling, no other bowler has shown match-winning skills.
