Owing to the loss in the previous game against Mumbai Indians, SRH is now in a spot of bother as their place in the playoffs is now in doubt. So, the game against Lucknow today is of quintessential importance.
For starters, this is a do-or-die game for both sides as both SRH and LSG are on 12 points. SRH is in 4th place and LSG is in 6th due to the NRR.
A win here for SRH will take them to 14 points and bring closer to the playoff qualification spot. If that doesn’t work out and the side loses the game, things could go south real quick with CSK and DC which are also with 12 points likely to pip the Hyderabadi side.
SRH must withstand the massive occasion and put up a fiery performance to stay alive in the tournament.
This is the best squad that the team put together in the recent years and this season must surely go SRH’s way after all the good work. But as mentioned, the inconsistency in the performances is coming to haunt the side. 3 defeats in last 4 games made matter worse. But all the expectations are now on today’s game against LSG that will start at 7:30 PM in Hyderabad.
