Jitesh Sharma to lead PBKS vs SRH (X.com)

The IPL 2024 season will mark its business end on Sunday, with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) locking horns for the final time this year. The matchup will kick off at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad from 3.30 PM IST onwards.

SRH have already qualified for the playoffs whereas PBKS are eliminated. Hence, the matchup is merely a formality and a medium for entertainment for the fans.

SRH vs PBKS: Team Previews

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) demolished LSG in their previous fixture by chasing down 166 runs target in just 9.4 overs. Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head’s carnage was unreal as the duo helped SRH register a staggering 10-wicket victory.

However, SRH’s previous fixture against GT got washed out due to rain which worked as a blessing in disguise as Pat Cummins and Co secured their place in the playoffs.

SRH have showcased their best form this year since the title victory in 2016. Cummins’ leadership proved to be a game changer as SRH are touted as potential winning contenders.

The upcoming game against PBKS is merely a practice game for SRH to tie loose ends before heading to the playoffs.

Punjab Kings

Since losing captain Shikhar Dhawan to season ending injury, nothing went right for Punjab Kings (PBKS) this season. 

While Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma’s emergence was a big positive, misfortune and lack of balance in the lineup cost them vital games as they bowed out of the IPL 2024 playoff race.

Regardless, with pride at stake, PBKS will step out to face SRH to end the season campaign on a fitting note.

However, PBKS are left paralysed ahead of the final league fixture. As ECB recalled it’s contracted player, captain Sam Curran along with some notable names have left the squad.

Jitesh Sharma will lead the side and hope for the best as they tackle a mighty and in-form SRH unit.
