Quinton de Kock, Wayne Parnell and Laxmi Shukla are in for DD. Within a few minutes Sunrisers Hyderabad will lock horns with Delhi Daredevils at Dubai International Cricket Stadium in the 12th match of the Indian Premier League`s seventh edition. After two back-to-back defeats, Sunrisers Hyderabad will be eager to bounce back against Delhi Daredevils, who are likely to be boosted by the return of their regular skipper Kevin Pietersen. In their first match SRH lost to Rajasthan Royals by four wickets and then were thrashed by KXIP by 72 runs. Delhi, also started off their campaign on a poor note as they lost their opening game by eight-wicket to Royal Challengers Bangalore. But in the next game, they bounced back against Kolkata Knight Riders to win their first game of the season. In the third match, a batting failure saw them suffer an embarrassing 93-run loss to Chennai franchise CSK. In the absence of Kevin Pietersen, who was nursing an injury on his little finger, DD looked nothing more than a mediocre side. The former England skipper is hopeful of leading the Delhi outfit in today`s encounter which will also give a big boost to their batting as well. Hyderabad whose batting line up looked top heavy with three big-hitters Shikhar Dhawan, Aaron Finch and David Warner, in their side, haven't really exploded with the bat. The middle-order too have failed with the likes of Lokesh Rahul and Y Venugopal Rao struggling to keep the scoreboard ticking. Though their bowlers had done well against Rajasthan when they took the game down to the wires, Dhawan`s bowlers could not withstand the Maxwell tide on Tuesday. Also their fielding was not upto the mark against Punjab. Pace duo of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Dale Steyn has been pretty consistent so far with the former blooming under the South African`s guidance as he went on to pick four wickets in two matches. Amit Mishra has snapped two wickets in each match, though he was at the receiving end of Maxwell in their last game and a lot would depend on the leg-spinner tomorrow. For Delhi, Mohammad Shami has been the spearhead of their pace attack, while Jaydev Unadkat too has done well to take four wickets in the two games he played so far. But they would be effected by the absence of Australian quick Nathan Coulter-Nile, who suffered a hamstring injury when diving to field a ball during the game against Chennai. But Delhi spinners have disappointed as neither Shahbaz Nadeem nor JP Duminy could do much to stop the rival batsmen so far.
