Delhi, on the other hand, are reeling at the bottom with five defeats and one win. They defeated Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in their last match to register their first win of the season after losing their first five matches. SRH have lost their last two matches.
As the two teams gear up to clash against each other for the first time in the IPL 2023, let’s have a look at four batters who will score most runs in the match.
Aiden Markram: The SRH captain will be a batter to watchout for in the upcoming match against Delhi. Overall, he has played five matches and scored 121 runs at an average of 30.25 and a strike rate 157.14.
He has played one match against Delhi in the past and scored 42 runs off just 25 balls. He is the third-highest run-scorer for SRH currently this season. Overall, he has played 25 IPL matches and scored 648 runs at an average of 38.12 and a strike rate of 137.87.
Mayank Agarwal: The former Punjab Kings batter has scored just 115 runs from six matches this season. His average and strike rate is a lowly 19.16 and 106.48 respectively. SRH will be banking on Agarwal’s experience to avoid their third defeat of the season.
He has played 13 matches against SRH and scored 358 runs at an average of 32.54 and a strike rate of 142.06. He would be hoping to continue his good run against Delhi.
David Warner: The Delhi Capitals captain would be raring to go against his former team which won their first and only title in his leadership in 2016. He has played three games against SRH. On one occasion, he smashed 92 unbeaten runs and he also remained unbeaten once.
Warner is currently the second-highest run-scorer in the IPL 2023. He has scored 285 runs in six matches at an average of 47.50 and a strike rate of 120.76. He has smashed four fifties in the season so far.
Manish Pandey: Another Delhi batter who used to play for SRH. Manish Pandey playing against his former team will also generate a lot of interest. He has played four matches in the season so far and scored 97 runs at an average of 24.25 and a strike-rate of 121.25.
The right-hand batter has played 12 matches against SRH so far and scored 316 runs at an average of 35.11 and a strike rate of SR of 118.35.
