Troubles mount for Pat Cummins and SRH

This latest losses has also dented SRH’s net run-rate ahead of their next game versus Punjab Kings at home on 12th April. 

Pat Cummins expressed his disappointment after losing the game to the host broadcasters. Cummins Said “Not a traditional Hyderabad wicket, tough to get fluency in your innings. At the end there, it did not spin as much as we thought. A few runs short and they batted well”

Washington Sundar who scored IPL career best 49 also spoke at the end of the said “Skipper kept telling me to play as deep as possible. Got off to a good start and wanted to bat as deep as possible and finish for the team. This has been the trend in Hyderabad in the last few years. In the second innings, the wicket gets better and easier to chase 160-170 on the board. I was well aware of it and it helped me.
