DC vs SRH: Why is T Natarajan Not Playing Today’s IPL Match?

During the toss, it was revealed that T Natarajan is not part of the starting SRH playing XI for this DC vs SRH match on Saturday. Incidentally, the left-arm pacer is part of the five substitute members out of which one can be used as an Impact Player at any moment in the match. Natarajan has not performed really well with the ball so far in this tournament for the Sunrisers Hyderabad as he has taken only 5 wickets from 6 matches at a disappointing economy rate of over 10. But he will still come out as an Impact Player in the second innings due to his amazing ability of bowling well at the death.

“We are going to bat. Wicket looks on the drier side, there shouldn’t be much dew tonight according to the locals. Hopefully we bat well and put a good total. All experimentation is finished, it’s time to get the results. Time for the guys to express themselves and enjoy. We lost Washi, that’s a big loss for us, but it’s an opportunity for someone to cement a spot in the side. We are letting ourselves down with the bat. We haven’t been up to par, haven’t posted good totals. Akeal Hosein makes his debut, Samad also comes back,” said Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Aiden Markram during the toss.
