It should be no brainer for anyone that why Sunrisers middle and lower order struggling here. they heavily relying on 3 Foreign batsmen and can't keep foreign allrounders in the team.
Pandey was very promising batsman when he started his International career and he used to be a very solid batsman in Domestic cricket as well, I still remember his maiden 100 against oz in Australia and he was argubly the fittest athlete in the team, even Virat use to put his name ahead of himself.
Yousuf Pathan is becoming old horse now. he can produce extraordinary inning on few matches but not regularly tbh and for rest of the new domestic batsmen, guess we need to give them some time to adjust in competitive tournaments. but Hooda's performing really bad despite his long ipl experience.
I am a fan of SRH and it's bad to see that they lost a match this way that they could have an easy win. 156 target was not that much for a T20 match.
I agree that the middle order and lower order is not performing. They are highly dependent on Bairstow and Warner when it comes to bat, especially Bairstow. When Bairstow is no more, they stop scoring. We can see it clearly from yesterday's match. After Bairstow gone they did not bat having the required rate in mind. They wasted too many balls and end result is that they has so many runs to chase that they lost wickets too quickly.
I think they lost 7 wickets in the last 15 to 16 balls. That is crazy.
Speaking the truth, I had a huge bet for SRH. I am lucky that I cashed out at the middle when they offered me some good return. I was hesitating that if I will wait till the end coz it was obvious looking that SRH was going to win it. Lucky me that I did not wait.
