Can Sooryavanshi Knock SRH Out? 

Sooryavanshi is having a season to remember and as he prepares for the Eliminator against Sunrisers Hyderabad, spotlight would be on him. He would be expected to get his side off to a flyer like he has been throughout the season. In 14 games thus far, he has amassed 583 runs at a staggering strike rate of 232.27. This includes three fifties and a century. The pressure of expectations would be on young Sooryavanshi and hence it becomes a mouthwatering preospect to see how he responds. 

For RR, it will not be an easy game considering Hyderabad have momentum on their side. Can Sooryavanshi stop the RR juggernaut is the question?
