IPL 2023, SRH vs DC, Match 34: Players to Watch Out For
David Warner
The Delhi Capitals’ skipper David Warner has been very consistent with the bat in the tournament so far. He has proved his worth for the team in all the matches amidst the poor performances of the other players of the team. Notably, Warner has scored 285 runs in six innings of the six matches he played till now with a decent average of 47.50 having four half-centuries to his name. He could prove his excellence one more time with the bat for the visitors’ side.
Mayank Markande
The young leg-break bowler Mayank Markande has impressed everyone with his amazing bowling performances in the current season so far. He has played four matches for the Sunrisers in the tournament so far. Bowling in all four innings of these four matches, Markande has scalped eight wickets including a four-wicket haul in the match against Punjab Kings. He could be a vital factor for the hosts during the middle-overs against Delhi Capitals.
Harry Brook
The young and sensational SRH opener Harry Brook is the first batter to score a century in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League before KKR’s Venkatesh Iyer reached the three-digit mark as an individual score. Harry Brook can provide a great start to the Sunrisers at their home ground with a blistering approach with the bat. Earlier, he had scored an unbeaten knock of 100 runs off just 55 balls during the match against KKR at Eden Gardens on the 14th of April.
