Delhi Capitals have had a topsy-turvy ride this season. Despite having one of the most-balanced squads, they have failed to win matches consistently and as a result are grappling to hold on to a top four finish. However, they have a chance to jump back into the reckoning when they take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in Match 50 of the IPL 2022 at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Thursday.

Sunrisers Hyderabad, on the other hand, will still be smarting from their loss after five successive wins and hence, they too are involved in the mid-table muddle. They are looking a well-balanced squad and now would want to be at their best against Delhi Capitals.
There will be added pressure on Kane Williamson as the SRH captain has not been in the best of forms this season.
Rahul Tripathi too needs to be more consistent and along with Abhishek Sharma, SRH would ideally want to lay a perfect platform for the likes of Aiden Markram and Nicholas Pooran in the middle order.
