Watch the live stream of Sunrisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings in the 2013 IPL here.
After a heavy defeat in their last match, Chennai Super Kings have had their confidence knocked and Sunrisers Hyderabad are probably relishing the opportunity to further punish the franchise.
Chennai had been on a seven-match winning streak before Mumbai Indians inflicted a heavy 60-run defeat on MS Dhoni’s men.
The Sunrisers meanwhile are unbeaten at home and Hyderabad has become something of a fortress for the newest side in the IPL.
Less than a week ago the smart money would have probably been on CSK, but after Mumbai’s demolition of the franchise the odds seem to have swung Hyderabad’s way.
However, CSK will be wanting to prove they are still genuine contenders for their record third IPL title, as wins for Mumbai and Rajasthan Royals on Tuesday has reduced their lead at the top to just two points.
The Sunrisers should write the side off at their own peril though, as the Super Kings have Mike Hussey and Dhoni in fine form with the bat.
This is coupled with Purple Cap leader for most wickets Dwayne Bravo leading the bowling attack for the team.
For the home side spinner Amit Mishra has looked good with the ball, whilst South African paceman Dale Steyn is always a threat.
Hyderabad’s batsmen have been far less impressive, with not a single member of the team making it into the top 30 for the Orange Cap award for most runs.
However, the return from injury of Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan could see that change in the near future.
