IPL 2019, Match 33 – SRH vs CSK: Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Tips – Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update Whom should you pick as your wicket-keeper in the Fantasy team? The finalists of the Indian Premier League (IPL) last year will lock horns for the first time this year. But the form of both the teams is contrasting. While the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have more or less confirmed their place in the playoffs, the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have lost their way after starting really well. They have been at the wrong end of the result for the three consecutive games and the game against CSK couldn’t have come at the worst time for them. The Men in Yellow have once again tackled the injury and player availability issues smartly. They are well on their way to defend the title and are way ahead of the other teams with 14 points to their name after eight matches. After their win against KKR, CSK won’t look to change their team much apart from a tactical rejig in the bowling department. For SRH though there might be a few changes again and one of them could be Kane Williamson opening the innings with Jonny Bairstow coming down the order. Also, Manish Pandey could come into the equation at the expense of Ricky Bhui. Match Details: The 33rd game of the IPL between SRH and CSK will be hosted by the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The match starts at 08:00 PM local time (14:30 GMT). The game will be live on Star Sports in India. (Live streaming on Hotstar). Weather Conditions Hyderabad will experience scorching heat in the lead up to the game. But it will cool down in the evening and the temperature will come down considerably to 29 Degrees Celsius during the match. There won’t be a lot of dew in this game if we go by the previous game.

(BCCI/IPL) IPL 2019, SRH vs CSK Highlights: Hyderabad thumps Chennai by six wickets. (BCCI/IPL) IPL 2019, SRH vs CSK Highlights: Sunrisers Hyderabad beat Chennai Super Kings at home on Wednesday. Courtesy of this win SRH ended their three-match losing streak and moved fifth on the points table. CSK, on the other hand, were without regular skipper MS Dhoni, and the defeat ended their four-match winning streak which looked unbeatable as ever. While MS Dhoni said that the absence of Dwayne Bravo has had an effect on the team balance, their performances have hardly betrayed any sign of disarray. Chennai Super Kings don’t necessarily need him to go ballistic though. With seven wins, the defending champions are sitting on top of the IPL table with a four-point and are looking unbeatable this season.<doc-sep>Two teams with contrasting form will meet at Hyderabad on Wednesday. Chennai Super Kings are a team to beat in IPL 2019 so far. MS Dhoni-led side has lost just a single game so far in the tournament and has clicked as a unit. The Sunrisers started the tournament pretty well but has lost momentum and are now in danger of losing out on a place in the playoffs. They will have a daunting task of defeating the mighty Superkings. Chennai Super Kings Strength The exceptional form of the skipper MS Dhoni is a confidence booster for the team. Also, Faf du Plessis has done well after coming in the playing XI. CSK's bowling has been it's biggest strength. Imran Tahir and Ravindra Jadeja have choked the opposition batsmen for runs in the middle order along with taking crucial wickets. Deepak Chahar has been impressive with the new ball as well as in the death overs. Weakness Poor form of some of the senior players is the only cause of concern for CSK. Shane Watson has looked completely out of sorts while Ambati Rayudu, apart from his half century against Rajasthan Royals, has struggled to get going. Sunrisers Hyderabad Strength The only plus point for Sunrisers has been the superlative form of their openers, David Warner and Jonny Bairstow. The dynamic openers will have their task cut out against a strong CSK bowling line-up. Weakness Poor middle and lower order batting has been a major reason for SRH languishing at 6th place in the points table. None of the Indian batsmen have been able to do justice to their place in the side. Also, Sunrisers' bowling, which is considered to be it's strength, hasn't really clicked this year. Bhuvneshwar Kumar is far from his best in the tournament yet. And even though he has bowled economically, Rashid Khan hasn't been able to take wickets. Who will win? With the kind of form CSK is in, they will start as favorites against the struggling Sunrisers. Sunrisers already has too many issues on their plate and it will take a herculean effort to defeat the rampant Superkings.

Ambati Rayudu missed his ticket to the 2019 World Cup by a whisker, pipped at the post by all-rounder Vijay Shankar. The Chennai Super Kings batsman had quit first-class cricket to focus on the 50-over format, hoping to earn a spot in the World Cup. The hasn't happened, and he is clearly not a happy man. He took to twitter to make his displeasure clear, taking a dig at the choice. Interestingly, Rayudu who hails from Hyderabad, will be up for CSK against Vijay, who hails from Chennai and plays for SRH! Rayudu, though, can ill-afford a modest performance in the IPL at this stage of his career. Rayudu, who has only scored 138 in 8 games this season, will know that ending the tournament on a high will at least keep him firmly in the reserves of the World Cup squad. For that to happen, Rayudu needs to make the next eight games count starting with the game against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Wednesday night. There is no time to mope around for Rayudu, whose team CSK have not put a foot wrong so far and are easily on top of the table with 14 points in eight matches. The home side, Sunrisers, are starting to lose way after three successive defeats — the latest being a 39-run loss at home at the hands of Delhi Capitals. Their biggest problem has been the floundering middle-order after their successful opening pair of David Warner and Jonny Bairstow. Warner and Bairstow are the two of the leading scorers of the IPL so far with 400 and 304 runs respectively. But after that, barring all-rounder Vijay Shankar, the cupboard looks bare. Skipper Kane Williamson has played just two matches and the likes of Manish Pandey (54 in six games), Deepak Hooda (47 in six games) and Yusuf Pathan (32 in six games) have been struggling so far. In-form CSK tweakers Imran Tahir and Harbhajan Singh will not make the task any easier for Sunrisers on a slow Hyderabad track. Players to watch out for MS Dhoni: The CSK skipper found a second wind last season and is extending the form into this year. Dhoni is the leading run-scorer for his side so far with 230 runs in eight games at an average of 76.66 with two half-centuries. The former India captain has been destructive against both spin and pace and will be CSK’s key to handling Rashid Khan. David Warner: The Australian opener has been just sensational since coming back from his ban for ball-tampering. Warner looks fresh and fired-up for a return to Australian colours at the upcoming World Cup. He scored his fourth fifty of IPL against the Capitals but knew his failure to finish the match cost the Sunrisers. He will need to carry on till the end to lift Sunrisers’ brittle middle-order. Team News/Availability: CSK: Dwayne Bravo, who injured his hamstring in an earlier game against Mumbai Indians, is not fit yet. Harbhajan Singh missed CSK's previous game, against KKR, with a neck injury. It's not clear whether he has recovered completely, but he's unlikely to feature in the XI as Hyderabad have plenty of right-handers in the batting line up. SRH: The middle-order was thoroughly exposed by Delhi, as they lost 8 for 15 in the last games. Expect Manish Pandey to step back in spite of his modest form so far this season. Probable Playing XI SRH: Kane Williamson (capt), David Warner, Jonny Bairstow, Vijay Shankar, Manish Pandey, Deepak Hooda, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Sandeep Sharma, Khaleel Ahmed and Shahbaz Nadeem CSK: MS Dhoni (captain & WK), Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, Shane Watson, Faf du Plessis, Kedar Jadhav, Ravindra Jadeja, Imran Tahir, Mitchell Santner, Shardul Thakur and Deepak Chahar Full squads Sunrisers Hyderabad: Kane Williamson (capt), Basil Thampi, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Deepak Hooda, Manish Pandey, T Natarajan, Ricky Bhui, Sandeep Sharma, Siddarth Kaul, Shreevats Goswami, Khaleel Ahmed, Yusuf Pathan, Billy Stanlake, David Warner, Rashid Khan, Mohammad Nabi, Shakib Al Hasan, Jonny Bairstow, Wriddhiman Saha, Martin Guptill, Vijay Shankar, Abhishek Sharma, Shahbaz Nadeem Chennai Super Kings: MS Dhoni (captain & WK), Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, Shane Watson, Faf du Plessis, Murali Vijay, Kedar Jadhav, Sam Billings, Ravindra Jadeja, Dhruv Shorey, Chaitanya Bishnoi, Rituraj Gaikwad, Dwayne Bravo, Karn Sharma, Imran Tahir, Harbhajan Singh, Mitchell Santner, Shardul Thakur, Mohit Sharma, K M Asif, Deepak Chahar, N Jagadeesan (wk), Scott Kuggeleijn.<doc-sep>
IPL 2019, Match 33, SRH vs CSK: Match Prediction – Weather Report, Pitch Conditions, Playing XIs and Live Streaming Details The SRH lost four games against CSK last season that included the Qualifier 1 and the Final. The Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has lost three matches in a row in this edition’s Indian Premier League (IPL) and are placed at the sixth position of the table. Their last defeat came against the Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. In that match, the SRH lost eight wickets in 15 runs and lost the game. The team suffered a similar collapse against the Mumbai Indians (MI) as well. In their next match, the Sunrisers are scheduled to play the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at home itself. Hence, it’s pretty understandable that Kane Williamson and Co need to pull a rabbit out the bat in order to outclass CSK. On a head-to-head count, CSK has been dominant, having won nine out of the eleven matches. In their last four meetings, all of which came in the last season, Chennai beat them every time. Pitch and Conditions The atmosphere isn’t expected to be a daunting one as the temperature will start at 30 degree Celsius and will gradually go down as the game progresses. The humidity will be in between the percentages of 30 and 40. As far as the track is concerned, the last two matches were won by the team, batting first and hence, teams may be complacent to chase on the strip in Hyderabad Team Combination Sunrisers Hyderabad The SRH may send Jonny Bairstow down the order in order to give the middle-order some sort of stability. Williamson may open with the in-form David Warner. Vijay Shankar will need to take responsibilities. Manish Pandey may come in place of Ricky Bhui. Abhishek Sharma and Deepak Hooda will have to play their roles as well. The pace trio of Sandeep, Bhuvneshwar and Khaleel have to deliver. Rashid Khan is the lone spinner. Probable XI Kane Williamson (C), David Warner, Vijay Shankar, Manish Pandey, Jonny Bairstow (WK), Deepak Hooda, Abhishek Sharma, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Khaleel Ahmed, Sandeep Sharma Chennai Super Kings The CSK may bring in Harbhajan Singh, who missed the last game, in place of Mitchell Santner. He and Imran Tahir has formed a lethal spin-bowling duo in the T20 tournament. Shane Watson and Faf du Plessis would continue to open with Suresh Raina at number three. Dhoni, Kedar Jadhav and Kedar Jadhav are the men in the middle order. Deepak Chahar and Shardul Thakur are the fast bowlers. Probable XI Shane Watson, Faf du Plessis, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni (C & WK), Ambati Rayudu, Kedar Jadhav, Ravindra Jadhav, Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Harbhajan Singh, Imran Tahir Probable Top Performers David Warner – Sunrisers Hyderabad | Faf du Plessis – Chennai Super Kings Broadcast Details TV – Star Sports 1, Star Sports 1 HD, Star Sports 1 Select HD Live Streaming – Hotstar Match Timings – 20:00 IST The prediction is for the Super Kings to win the match.
