IPL 2014 Preview: Mumbai Indians vs. Sunrisers Hyderabad

This match will see two struggling outfits against each other. Mumbai Indians are desperate for their maiden win in the competition while Sunrisers are looking for more points. Can Mumbai bounce back or will it be Sunrisers day?
Mumbai Indians
Sitting at the bottom of the table, the defending champions must win this one in order to stay in the competition. Their batting has failed with big names managing just few runs in the tournament. Mike Hussey should be kept out from the rest of the matches while the likes of Rohit Sharma, Corey Anderson and Kieron Pollard need runs. Ambati Rayadu has accumulated runs but he has not got support from the other end. Zaheer Khan and Harbhajan Singh will have to bowl with responsibility in order to turn this match in their favor. Malinga has been superb but he needs others to fire as well.
Sunrisers Hyderabad
Aaron Finch and David Warner have scored runs for the team but the same can't be said about their skipper Shikhar Dhawan. The likes of Rahul, Y Venugopal Rao and Darren Sammy are their key batsmen in the middle order, who will have to put runs on the board. The bowlers have bowled well with Dale Steyn and Bhuvneshwar Kumar being consistent while leg-spinners Amit Mishra and Karn Sharma have restricted their rivals. They need their batsmen to put runs on the board so that they can win matches.
Verdict
Hyderabad based franchise has a better chance because of their strong batting and bowling unit.
