MI vs SRH, IPL 2021: Can Sunrisers rise against Sharmaji Ki Paltan tonight?

Sunrisers Hyderabad take on a qualitatively superior Mumbai Indians in match nine of the Indian Premier League (IPL) encounter on Saturday, trying to arrest an early slide after back-to-back defeats.

With only Warner and Rashid Khan being certainties among the overseas players, a fit Kane Williamson is a must for SRH, factoring in his prowess against spin bowling. On a track like Chepauk, at times it becomes imperative to play as late as possible and use the depth of the crease well, which Williamson is adept at. It is unlikely that MI will tinker with their playing XI and more so after winning a thriller against KKR.

However, they would like to put up a better account of their batting as theirs is a line-up that can just throw the pitch factor out of equation on a given day.
