After folding their innings on a sub-pa 152/8, mohammed shami and skipper pat cummins rattled gt’s top order, but the rest of the rest of the boiling unit failed to keep the pressure up in the mildle drurs. Titans Skipper Shubman Gill, Who Brushed Away The Early Threat, Stayed Unbeated on 62 to Steer His Side to a Comfortable Seven-White Triumph.
Rayudu traced down the reason behind the ongoing woes behind the sunrisers SRH has taken 12 wickets from 7 to 16 overs, averagging 41.33 and mainTaining an economy of 9.92, making them the third-west amon the ten teams.
“In the middle overs, they do’t anybody who can pick up that crucial wickets and put the opposition under pressure – like how gt have done with sai kishore, rashid [Khan] And Prasidh Krishna. They really tightened the screen, “Rayudu said on espncricinfo’s timeout show.
“I don’t see srh trying to take wickets. Good Middle-Proverrs Bowlers to Pick up that that wickets, “He added.

Rayudu does not behishek’s form is a reason for srh’s panic and said, “I think he just needs a shift in his mindset. [or] Mid-on; Run those singles; Get your 10-15 runs; [and] Get your blood flow going. Then the big shoots will Always come because you have trained for it. You are there to hit them, and they will come. Just speed a little time on the basics. I think srh will have to come to basics now. “
“All their top three actually like [good] Length a lot. So they are looking to clear the infield and hit that sixeses off length, which they have been practicing of late. Their backlifts have changed. Abhishek Sharma’s Backlift has Changed, Ishan Kishan does that. They are lifting the bat much higher so that their hands are higher, and they can go for that big shots, “He added.

“So now what Teams are Doing is They’re Bowling Really full to them. Still, these guys are trying to hit over the infield. I think they need to be slightly smart and just all the gaps, becaus the then Actually Half Volleys that people are bowling to them. [is required]Saying, ‘Okay, if it is full, generally as a batsman we are all taught to wait for a full ball.’ So that’s all they need to do: wait for a full ball, hit the gaps, and then let them come and bowl there lends or short balls, and then you can get after the bowling. They just need to ebb a little bit and then flow, “He said.
