IPL 2019 is well and truly underway now, and as the days go by, the table is slowly assuming the shape you’d expect it to come the end of the league stage.
That will be of little comfort to Delhi Capitals, who have played the most matches so far – five – and are in the bottom half after losing to Sunrisers Hyderabad on Thursday, April 4. Another batting collapse didn’t help matters, and that they chose to blame the pitch was … bemusing.
Hyderabad, meanwhile, continue powering on. After losing their opener to Kolkata Knight Riders, they are now atop the table with the best net run-rate. Their spirit is high, and that’s best symbolised by that Warner-Bairstow hug.
What’s hot
Bangalore take on Kolkata Knight Riders at home. One wonders what sort of new, twisted hell Bangalore will find themselves in after Andre Russell is through with them.
