SRH vs DC Playing XI: The Orange Army of Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) host Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Monday, May 5. SRH have had a rough campaign so far, with just three wins from ten games.

Their most recent outing ended in a 38-run defeat to Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad, further exposing their ongoing issues with an underperforming top order and an inconsistent pace attack.

Delhi Capitals, meanwhile, have also hit a slump in form in the second leg of the season. With only two victories in their last six matches, the side has lost crucial momentum.

As the league stage enters its final stretch, DC, under Axar Patel's leadership, will be desperate to revive their playoff hopes. Their confidence will be buoyed by a dominant seven-wicket win over SRH earlier in the tournament.

SRH vs DC Team News, Injury Update

Axar Patel sustained a blow to his left hand while fielding during Delhi Capitals' previous match against Kolkata Knight Riders in Delhi. However, he did come out to bat later in the innings, indicating the injury wasn't serious. Apart from that, there are no fitness concerns in the DC squad. Sunrisers Hyderabad, on the other hand, have no reported injuries and are expected to field a full-strength side.

SRH vs DC Key Players

Abhishek Sharma has been a rare bright spot in an otherwise inconsistent campaign for last year's finalists, Sunrisers Hyderabad. His performances with the bat have stood out, and he boasts a solid track record against Kuldeep Yadav, having scored 38 runs off just 13 deliveries while being dismissed twice.

On the other side, Mitchell Starc could play a key role with the new ball for Delhi Capitals, especially given his success against Travis Head-dismissing him twice in just seven IPL deliveries. His early breakthroughs could be crucial in Hyderabad.
