Sunrisers Hyderabad would look to complete the unfinished business and seal its place in the IPL play-offs when it clashes with laggards Royal Challengers Bangalore, here on Saturday.

The defeat against Mumbai Indians via Super Over must be hurting but it needs to shrug it off and add two points to take its tally to 14, good enough to stay in top-4.

Despite its defeat against Mumbai on Thursday night, Hyderabad’s Net Run Rate is +0.653, which is superior to others in contention for the play-offs.

Even if Hyderabad loses its last match, it can still reach play-offs if Kolkata Knight Riders and Kings XI Punjab don’t win more than one of their last two matches.

In the absence of their batting mainstay David Warner, young Manish Pandey (71 off 47 balls) shouldered the responsibility pretty well in the last match against Mumbai as he pushed the match into the Super Over after he carted Hardik Pandya for a last-ball six to bring scores level. Mumbai Indians had scored 162 for five in the allotted 20 overs. Needing nine to win in Super Over, Pandya and Kieron Pollard took the side home with three balls to spare. Hyderabad had managed 8 for 2 with Jasprit Bumrah bagging Pandey and Mohammed Nabi’s wickets. Captain Kane Williamson, all-rounder Vijay Shankar and comeback man Wriddhiman Saha will look to score in the key match.

Hyderabad bowlers have performed well in patches and need to get their act together against Bangalore’s master blasters AB de Villiers and Virat Kohli. The visitor boasts of multi-pronged attack in which Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan has been the standout performer. Sandeep Sharma, Khaleel Ahmed and experienced Bhuvneshwar Kumar, along with the Afghan spin twins Rashid and Mohammed Nabi add sting to Hyderabad attack.

Bangalore will be playing for pride after its hopes of entering playoffs went up in smoke when its match against Rajasthan Royals was abandoned due to rain.
