Hyderabad eager to return favour

Hyderabad eager to return favour

With the absence of some key players, the onus once again will be on Mohali's Mahela Jayawardene and captain Kumar Sangakkara to lead the batting charge against Hyderabad.

With Yuvraj Singh out of form, Brett Lee back in Australia and a few other key Australian players yet to come over for the IPL, Mohali is struggling at the moment.

Despite the good form of Ravi Bopara, the Mohali team will have to improve their batting to take on the strong bowling line up of Hyderabad, which boasts of Chaminda Vaas, R P Singh and Pragyan Ojha.

Even their bowling has not been impressive at all. Yusuf Abdullah and S Sreesanth have been taken to the cleaners in the last game against Bangalore.

Mohali has lost both their matches so far and will be keen to make amends with a win over Hyderabad.

Records are on their side since the Mohali team has always beaten Hyderabad in the previous two editions of the tournament.

But Adam Gilchrist's men are all eager to return the favour this time.

After losing their first game against Kolkata, they came back to beat Chennai.

While Gilchrist is in sublime form, the likes of Herschelle Gibbs and Andrew Symonds definitely adds strength to their batting line up. But others like Rohit Sharma and V V S Laxman are not in the best of form.
