The third week of the 11th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) has started on a blistering note as the fans have witnessed a phenomenal two games on Saturday. However, the super Sunday is once again expected to be a mind-boggling one as the two table toppers will lock horns with each other, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Both the teams are having a dream run in the ongoing season of the cash-rich league. Despite the fact that SRh lost their last game against the Kings XI Punjab (KXIP), CSK will be in no mood of taking them lightly as the SRH will be playing at their fortress. Let us have a look at 5 players whose performance will be crucial in the game.

1. Shikhar Dhawan (SRH)

Shikhar Dhawan walked into the IPL in superb white-ball form. He was smacking the ball perfectly and was scoring runs by truck-load. He continued his form into the Indian Premier League and soon made his way to the orange cap. In the first two matches, he batted superbly and dominated both the chases from the start. Dhawan’s innings proved match-winning as SRH cruised to two consecutive wins. Dhawan scored 78* vs RR and 45 against MI.

Then came the dip. In the last two matches, Dhawan has scored 7 and 0* (Retired hurt). He was hit on his elbow and could not come out to bat. His batting will be a major factor for SRH.
