Delhi vs Hyderabad: A Battle of Consistent Performers and Rising Stars

Q: Who are the key players that will be missing or returning to the squad for Delhi and Hyderabad?

Jonny Bairstow, Hyderabad’s highest run getter of the season, and Delhi’s Chris Woakes will miss the UAE leg. Shreyas Iyer, who missed the first leg due to injury, is back for Delhi.

Hyderabad, who have reached the play-offs in each season since 2016, have been one of the consistent teams in the recent editions of the Indian T20 League. The Orange Army have ample experience in the batting and bowling units, which can steer them to the finals but a poor start to the season has made things extremely difficult for them.

Meanwhile Delhi is still looking for their maiden T20 title. They finished third in 2019 and runners-up in the 2020 season. Given their start in the first leg of 2021, their title wait may end this October.

Delhi boasts an exciting blend of young local talent and established international stars. A well-rounded bowling attack featuring the likes of Kagiso Rabada and Ravi Ashwin is supplemented by an attacking batting line-up bolstered by Shreyas Iyerâ€™s return from injury. Shikhar Dhawan and Prithvi Shaw currently sit first and fourth in the run charts while Avesh Khan (14) is second in the Purple Cap race. Here are some players who can play a key role for Team Delhi:

- Rishabh Pant (C)
- Shikhar Dhawan
- Shreyas Iyer
- Prithvi Shaw
- Ravi Ashwin

Few teams rely as heavily on their foreign players as Hyderabad do. David Warner and Kane Williamson have been vital to their recent success. With Bhuvneshwar Kumar struggling to meet the standards of old, the bowling depends greatly on Rashid Khanâ€™s wily leg spin. West Indian Shane Rutherford has replaced the prolific Jonny Bairstow in the squad. Here are some players who can play a key role for Team Hyderabad this season:

- Kane Williamson (C)
- David Warner
- Rashid Khan
