Analysis of Cricket Match

After a disappointing start of SRH by losing two consecutive losses, one was thinking that the journey of this team will also end like that of the Mumbai Indians. But the world’s coolest and most composed captain Kane Williamson led SRH roared against Chennai Super Kings and Gujrat Titans so loud that every critic thought for a second time for speaking low against them.

In the first match, they hardly reach 149 against 210, in the second at 157 and both were lost. In the third and fourth although again low scoring matches, the way this team achieved 154 and 163 with such an ease with 8 wickets still in hand, such a comeback of the team in the tournament must be appreciated.

Kane Williamson and Sharma have performed well in the previous matches and the hopes for these two players in the upcoming matches are also very high. In bowling, Bhuvnesh Kumar can be a nightmare for the KKR.

The graph of KKR is sinusoidal. They are winning and losing variably. They won the first game with 133 with ease, and in the very nest game all out at 128 and lost. Then two consecutive wins by chasing 141 and 161 comfortably, the winning streak ended when lost by 44 runs against DC by getting all out at 171 while chasing 215.

In batting, no player other than Venkatesh Iyer and Shreyas Iyer are proved to be important so far, so these two will be the main target of the opponents’ bowlers. But other than them no one can forget the presence of Russel and Pat Cummins, who proved to be a one-man army often. Umesh Yadav can be the one dangerous with the ball for SRH, as his performance in the previous matches is the depiction of that.

As far as the performance of the two teams against each other is concerned, in a total of 21 games which both teams have played, KKR won 14 and 7 by SRH. In the last 5 matches, 4 are won by KKR and only 1 is won by SRH. Let’s see if the ratio gets thinner or more differential this time.
