Bengaluru, August 19: The 2016 Indian Premier League champions Sunrisers Hyderabad will start their IPL 2021 Phase 2 against Delhi Capitals at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on September 22.
SRH like most teams are set to play their seven remaining matches in IPL 2021, which was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic and has been moved to the UAE, where Kane Williamson-led side will hope for upturn in fortunes.
When COVID-19 breached the IPL bio-bubble earlier this year in May, Sunrisers were languishing at the foot of the league table with just 2 points on the board following six defeats in seven matches.

While they earned a solitary win over Punjab Kings, Sunrisers suffered defeats to Rajasthan Royals, Mumbai Indians, Kolkata Knight Riders, Chennai Super Kings, Royal Challengers Bangalore and came very close to a win against Delhi Capitals, but lost in the super over.
Following the poor run of results and performances, SRH also saw a mid-season captaincy change as Williamson replaced David Warner as the skipper.
In phase 2 of IPL 2021, SRH will play three matches in Dubai and two each in Abu Dhabi and Sharjah. Here is a look the remaining fixtures for SRH with dates, timings in IST and venues:
