SRH Will Have To Bully Opposition Bowlers, Out-bat Teams For Having A Successful Campaign, Says Du Plessis
Former South Africa: Former South Africa captain Faf du Plessis believes Sunrisers Hyderabad’s (SRH) hopes of a successful 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL) campaign hinges on their ability to bully opposition bowlers and consistently out-bat rival sides.
The 2016 IPL winners have shattered batting and six-hitting records across the last two seasons, yet they have fallen short of winning the title due to lack of firepower in their bowling line-up. "When I look at Sunrisers, it almost reminds me of the West Indies at the T20 World Cup, an extremely powerful batting lineup. But when I look at the squad, I ask myself, who are my wicket-takers? From a captaincy point of view, who am I throwing the ball to?
“Obviously, Cummins is the captain, so he is the go-to option. But apart from him, who are the other guys? Who are the two or three bowlers that are my bankers at the death and who will get me wickets in the powerplay? Looking at the names, I am not entirely sure who those guys are.
