IPL: Top 5 best bowling performances for SRH of all time

<p>In 2016, when Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) lifted the coveted <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/" title="Indian Premier League (IPL)" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Indian Premier League (IPL)</strong></a> trophy under David Warner’s captaincy, their bowling unit delivered consistent support to the batting attack. On one, side, Warner looked ferocious with the bat while on the other side, Bhuvneshwar Kumar spearheaded the bowling attack confidently and contributed 23 wickets in the success.</p>
<p>After witnessing the dismal performances in the last three seasons, the SRH team management signed up Australia stalwart Pat Cummins for the upcoming season for a hefty amount of INR 20.50 crore. Along with veteran Bhuvneshwar Kumar, the Aussie star pacer can be impactful in the competition and help SRH claim their lost glory. There are still some weeks left to witness SRH’s bowling unit’s performance in the 2024 IPL but currently, the 2016 champion side’s fans can bring cheers to their faces with the five best bowling performances of the team. &nbsp;</p>

<p>In 2022, SRH failed to do wonders but <strong><a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-players/umran-malik/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Umran Malik</a></strong> had a great season. The speedster took 22 wickets in 14 games and ended up as Sunrisers’ leading wicket-taker in the season. Against the debutant side Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Wankhede Stadium, he picked up a fifer while defending 195 runs for his team.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In his fiery spell, he picked up GT’s key batters Shubman Gill, Hardik Pandya, Wriddhiman Saha, and David Miller. However, Hyderabad failed to utilise his bowling effort in the end as Rashid Khan held his nerves and played an unbeaten 31-run knock off 11 balls to help Titans chase down the total successfully. Umran got the Player of the Match award for his scintillating bowling performance.</p>

<h3>4. Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s 5/19 against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in 2017</h3>

He is the only bowler in the history of IPL to win the Purple Cap for two consecutive seasons.</p>
<p>In 2017, SRH failed to defend the title but Bhuvneshwar again became the highest wicket-taker in the competition with 26 wickets in 14 matches at an economy of 7.05. Against Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, he became the first SRH bowler to clinch a fifer.</p>
<p>Taking on Punjab’s formidable batting unit confidently, the <strong>India</strong> paceman defended an average total of 159 successfully for SRH. He bowled a four-over spell and got rid of Hashim Amla, Glenn Maxwell, and Manan Vohra, who could’ve been dangerous for his team. The speedster also scalped the wickets of tailenders Mohit Sharma and KC Cariappa. Riding on his disciplined bowling show, SRH pocketed a five-run win. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>His first victim was Pune captain Angelo Mathews, who got dismissed on the second delivery of the over. After the skipper’s wicket, Mishra got Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Rahul Sharma, and Ashok Dinda on consecutive three deliveries and took his team home. The leggie became the recipient of the Player of the Match award for his magnificent bowling display.&nbsp;</p>

After the superb batting show, Rashid came heavily on KKR with the ball. In the 11th over of the innings, the leggie cleaned up Robin Uthappa, who was batting on two.</p>
<p>In his next over, the Afghan player picked up Australia batter Chris Lynn, who was in great touch. After claiming two crucial wickets, Rashid sent Andre Russell to the pavilion for only three. The West Indies all-rounder’s scalp cleared SRH’s way for the final. In 20 overs, Kolkata could amass only 160 runs, and Hyderabad qualified for the final with a 14-run win.&nbsp;</p>
