The fitness of Kane Williamson is another matter of concern, and if fit he could replace Mohammad Nabi in the side on a Mohali surface which might not assist Nabi’s off-spin.

The biggest issue for Sunrisers Hyderabad is their middle order, the players have not turned up yet, there is a dearth of power hitters and when the openers in David Warner and Jonny Bairstow do not fire, they find themselves in a bit of a hole.

“When Kane will be fit, he will come back because he is our captain. Of course, there’ll be a difficulty because everyone is performing well but it’s not a concern for us right now,” Bhuvneshwar Kumar said before the match.
