Skipper Shreyas Iyer would look to sort out his team's lower-order woes and strive for consistency when Team Delhi face a rampaging Hyderabad in an IPL match on Thursday.

Delhi are currently fifth in the eight-team standings with two wins and as many losses after four games and consistency is something which they would be looking for. 

However, Delhi's lower-order came unstuck against Punjab on Monday night when they inexplicably lost seven wickets for eight runs to lose the game by 14 runs. 

After the six-wicket defeat to Kolkata in their opener, Hyderabad roared their way back into the tournament, largely riding on Warner and Bairstow's exploits and come Thursday, they would be eyeing a hat-trick of wins.
