15:10 IST: Will the defending champions Sunrisers Hyderabad continue winning run or Gujarat Lions will bounce back with a win?


Yuvraj Singh was the hosts’ star after putting on a solid 27-ball 62-run knock but the 4:00 PM kick-off against Suresh Raina’s team could be a different ball game altogether.

As far as the head-to-head record of the teams is concerned, SRH will be oozing with confidence, having won all three of their games against GL, including one in the qualifying final.

In the opening game, Yuvraj and Dhawan made their intent of getting a recall to India`s Champions Trophy squad clear with some destructive batting. While Yuvraj was the chief architect, Dhawan laid the foundation, scoring 40 runs with Henriques also getting a half century. (IPL 10 – Full Coverage)

Sunrisers have a potent bowling attack with veteran Ashish Nehra, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ben Cutting and Afghanistan rookie Rashid Khan sharing the burden.

Gujarat, meanwhile, have a lot to strategise going into the game against the hosts. Australia all-rounder James Faulkner may replace a horribly out-of-form and out-of-shape Dwayne Smith.

With Jason Roy and Brendon McCullum set to get a longer rope at the top of the order, Faulkner`s better bowling ability makes him a more viable option that Smith, who is batting lower down the order.

Here’s everything you need to know about the third match of the season:-
