Both the teams have a reputed top-order which has proved their worth with the runs they have scored. SRH’s opening pair of Shikhar Dhawan and David Warner have contributed immensely to their side and have taken responsibility to anchor the innings at times. On the other hand, GL quite strangely went with Aaron Finch in the as an opener along with Brendon McCullum instead of Dwayne Smith. It turned out to be a disaster but Smith did contribute with an important 73 lower-down the order. FULL CRICKET UPDATES: Gujarat Lions vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, IPL 2016, Qualifier 2 at Delhi
GL’s middle-order somehow hung on to build the innings after the collapse against RCB but will again have to chip-in if GL want to bat SRH out of the game. Dinesh Karthik, Ravindra Jadeja and Smith if he comes down the order should look to dominate and not let the SRH bowlers settle. However, SRH would have been content to see Yuvraj Singh, Deepak Hooda get some runs for their side, but would like wicket-keeper Naman Ojha to get some valuable runs at the closing stages of the game.
