Sunrisers Hyderabad head coach Daniel Vettori will continue to back his explosive batters after another flop show against the Gujarat Titans However he acknowledged that his batters need to respect pitch conditions and the fact that opposition bowlers are putting a lot of planning into their top threeHyderabads belligerent batters continued to misfire as the Sunrisers fell to their fourth defeat on the trot in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League IPL With their bats resorting to silence and Miyaan Magic mesmerising the spectators Hyderabad packed their bags on 1528 in 20 overs In reply the Titans gunned down the target in a mere 164 overs and emerged triumphant with seven wicketsI think we know the style is going to work but we have to respect conditions and we have to assess really well and thats probably something we havent done Also we have to respect how well other teams are bowling putting a lot of planning into our top three and they havent been able to execute it at times Vettori said in the postmatch press conference as quoted from ESPNcricinfoVettori felt the turf on Sunday wasnt a typical Hyderabad surface According to him the slow and tough conditions made it a mounting task for the batters to reach the 160170 total they were striving forI think they saw that the wicket was really tough and the assessment coming back was 160170 would be a good score which is what we anticipated at the start of the day So we knew that those guys if they could get themselves in build a partnership and then hopefully attack the back end and we were pretty close to that in the end he saidAlso ReadMI vs RCB IPL 2025 Predicted playing XIs headtohead injuries and moreWe needed 20 more runs to put the pressure on and then obviously bowl really well But I think their GTs understanding of what was required was spot on he addedSunrisers sang harmoniously after tonking a 2866 against the Rajasthan Royals in their campaign opener However Hyderabad lost its muse and has been on a downhill path struggling to present a collective piece of their performances that come in patchesDespite four successive defeats Vettori doesnt feel the panic button has been hit in his camp But he understands the ramifications of their current situation and the need to return to winning ways in their upcoming fixturesI dont think Pat Cummins has ever panicked in his life and I think Im pretty similar But we understand the ramifications of losing four in a row and how difficult it makes the season Its tough because obviously you come into the season with high expectations after finishing as runnersup last year and then a very good start he saidBut we just havent been near our best in the last four games I think thats all three disciplines I think the barometer of most teams is how their fieldings going and weve been pretty poor in the field So those will be the workons between now and the Punjab game And we know that if we can get on a roll then were still a very good team Were just not performing the way that we should be he addedWhile the focus on the Sunrisers in the 18th edition has been on their beleaguered batters Vettori sees it differently The former New Zealand spinner believes his side needs a lift in all three spectrums of the gameWe havent been able to click in a game We look back to last year and our skills were putting big scores on and then sort of holding on for dear life with the ball he said But we havent been able to put those big scores together through a combination of things he saidThe good thing about the IPL is there are quick turnarounds there are opportunities to do well and there are individual performances within those games So I think theres still some confidence within the batting group but its the collective that needs to stand up now he addedThis story has been sourced from a third party syndicated feed agencies Midday accepts no responsibility or liability for its dependability trustworthiness reliability and data of the text Midday managementmiddaycom reserves the sole right to alter delete or remove without notice the content in its absolute discretion for any reason whatsoeveratOptionskeyd0ddb8ef8f1a62a8cdd22fac27fc5ea7formatiframeheight90width728params
