IPL 2020 LIVE SCORE, MI vs SRH Match: Warner departs as Hyderabad continue to struggle in chase of 209 – Firstcricket News, Firstpost



IPL 2020 LIVE SCORE, Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Live Updates: Krunal back into attack and strikes on the first delivery. Garg mistimes his slog sweep and Chahar takes an excellent catch at deep square leg. Umpires had a look but Chahar never touched the ropes. Abhishek Sharma is the new man in. Nine from the over. 70 needed from here.

Preview: Mumbai Indians (MI) will have an edge over Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) when the two teams face off in match 17 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Sunday. Both MI and SRH are entering this game fresh from their respective wins over KXIP and CSK, but MI’s explosive batsmen will be keen to take advantage against SRH, especially with Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s likely absence.

In a big blow for the Hyderabad franchise, Bhuvneshwar injured his left thigh while bowling his final over against CSK on Friday, and was forced off the field soon after. Khaleel Ahmed stepped in to complete the over for Bhuvneshwar.

And Bhuvneshwar’s absence would mean an advantage for MI’s explosive big-hitters like Hardik Pandya and Kieron Pollard, who will look to make use of the short boundaries in Sharjah.

The Sharjah Cricket Stadium has been a dream land for batsmen, with Rajasthan Royals successfully defending 216 against Chennai Super Kings in September.

SRH, meanwhile, had to heavily rely on youngsters Priyam Garg (51) and Abhishek Sharma (31) as their top-order failed to fire against CSK. While David Warner (28) and Manish Pandey (29) failed to convert starts, Jonny Bairstow (0) and Kane Williamson (9) even failed to get going.

The onus will also be on Rashid Khan to get the crucial wickets, while Bhuvneshwar’s likely absence means there will be added pressure on T Natarajan and Khaleel Ahmed during the death overs.
