Aiden Markram just 26-runs away to reach 1000 IPL runs milestone
The 66th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 will be played between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Gujarat Titans at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The match is scheduled for May 16th starting from 7:30 pm.
Sunrisers Hyderabad have won seven matches and lost five matches so far. They are currently in fourth place in the points table. Therefore, the Sunrisers would like to win their remaining games and seal a playoff spot for themselves.
On the other hand, the Gujarat Titans have won five matches and lost seven matches so far. They are already out of the playoff race, currently sitting eighth in the points table, and would be playing this match as a statement of pride.
Sunrisers Hyderabad will be led by Pat Cummins while GT will be led by Shubman Gill, who played a brilliant innings against CSK, although GT couldn’t qualify.
Sunrisers, unlike other teams, have no one to rely on to make it to the playoffs. Two wins could secure them a straight entry into the playoffs. Additionally, if RR fails to maintain their position in the 2nd spot, SRH can finish 2nd too.
Here are some records that could be broken in the match:
Jaydev Unadkat Targeting 100 IPL Wickets:
Jaydev Unadkat, the veteran pacer, has been wicketless in recent matches and would like to continue his wicket-taking form. Jaydev Unadkat (99) needs one wicket to reach 100 wickets in IPL.
David Miller Nearing 3000 IPL Runs
David Miller has had a horrible season, and he would like to end it on a high note so that owners can see his performance. David Miller (2924) needs another seventy-six runs to reach 3000 runs in IPL.
Aiden Markram Eyes 1000 IPL Runs:
SRH’s former captain Aiden Markram will be thriving to score runs in the middle for his team to make it to the playoffs. Aiden Markram (974) needs another twenty-six runs to reach 1000 runs in IPL.
All other teams would be witnessing this match, and an SRH loss can open the table for one last time in the league. If SRH wins, only one spot will be left for contention.
