IPL 2023: MI vs SRH – 3 key Player Battles to Watch out for

MI vs SRH: It’s mid-May, and the sun is blazing with all its might, but all franchises with several players never failed to impress us. The Mumbai Indians and the Sunrisers both performed overwhelmingly in the last two encounters and now look to give us an intense performance while facing each other on Tuesday. 

Let’s take a look at the 3 most scorching battles between the players on both sides:

1. Harry Brook vs Jason Behrendorff

After Brook’s legendary knock against the Kolkata Knight Riders a few instances back, he would probably be considered the most alluring threat in the SRH lineup. Alongside this, we know of Brook’s caliber with the bat, and a suitable batting track like Rajiv Gandhi International can be a platform for him to fire on. 

However, while playing against the Indians, he would have to face the Australian pacer Behremdorff, who stepped forward as their best pacer in the absence of Bumrah and Jofra Archer, especially with his angle that leaves the right-hander and edges him on the cut. 

2. Aiden Markram vs Piyush Chawla

The young Proteas skipper from Hyderabad has nailed his efforts in the Indian Premier League and is expected to be one of the firmest pillars of the SRH middle order in the MI vs SRH match. Despite several noteworthy names in the batting lineup, Markram is a highly reliable pillar of the Sunrisers’ lineup. 

However, MI has the evergreen spinner Piyush Chawla and his stunning form with the ball and would be anticipated to spin a web against the veteran. 

3. Suryakumar Yadav vs Mayank Markande 

SKY was expected to be the most commanding player in the Mumbai batting lineup but has failed miserably in the first three matches. But despite his failures, SKY shot to form against KKR after he was handed the captain’s bat by Rohit Sharma

However, SKY has a very notable weakness against the spinners, and someone like Mayank Markande, who is in red-hot form while playing in IPL 2023, will be used against the T20 veteran by the SRH skipper in the MI vs SRH fixture.
