SRH TEAM STRENGTHS

• Indian Pacers

SRH is known for their bowling attack specially their Indian Pacers. The team has pacers suitable for any pitch condition. They have Swing King Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natrajan, Kartik Tyagi & Umran Malik. Apart from these they also have South African talent Marco Jansen, Akeal Hosein, and Afghanistan’s Fazalhaq Farooqi in their bowling attack.

• Indian Batting Attack

Similarly, like the Indian bowling attack SRH also have a quite decent batting attack filled with young Indian batters. They have hard hitters and sensible batters in the squad who can play according to the situation. Abhishek Sharma, Mayank Aggarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Anmolpreet Singh, Abdul Samad, and Washington Sundar form a quality batting attack.

SRH TEAM WEAKNESS

• Promising Foreign Batter

The lack of a strong foreign batter on the roster makes the team weak in this area. They do have Harry Brook and Glenn Phillips on their squad, but as they are both new to the competition, it will be difficult for them to adapt to the Indian fields.
