Afghan pacer Fazalhaq Farooqi has been most constant for them however to be honest, the bowlers did not have sufficient complete to defend, one thing which SRH must repair on the earliest.

Dhawan has led from the entrance with two fifties, whereas Prabhsimran Singh and B Rajapaksa raised their arms when wanted as the highest order has seemed strong.
Amongst international recruits, Nathan Ellis was sensational towards RR within the final match however tempo bowling all-rounder Sam Curran — the costliest purchase ever in IPL historical past at Rs 18.50 crore — has thus far leaked numerous runs.
