In the 20th match of the ongoing IPL, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will face-off Delhi Capitals (DC) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
After winning their first match amid a rough trot, SRH will try to be consistent from here on. They’ll field the same team that played in the last game, except Sandeep Sharma, who might replace an injured Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
Whereas DC have proved their contention for the title after defeating strong sides like Mumbai Indians (MI) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK). The Rishabh Pant-led team looks in good touch and will make no changes in their playing XI from the last game.
