The batters of Sunrisers Hyderabad against the bowlers of Gujarat Titans promises to be a lip-smacking contest in the next game of the Indian Premier League. Individual player battles are going to add fuel to the fire of this contest. Here are three such player battles.

Ishan Kishan vs Mohammed Siraj
Ishan Kishan and Mohammad Siraj have never played together in the same IPL team, but they have been playing against each other for a long time now. Both of them have been a crucial part of their current team and the coming encounter would be interesting to watch.
Kishan has played 49 deliveries from Siraj, where he has scored 74 runs with the help of six boundaries and sixes each. Having scored at a strike rate of 151, he has lost his wicket twice to him. Neither of them has been able to completely dominate the other while having a moment of their own.
Travis Head vs Rashid Khan
Travis Head has become the focus of opposition bowlers as the success of Hyderabad has been directly dependent on Head’s success. He has been in great form and is probably the most dangerous batter out there. Rashid, on the other hand, has been one of the most important players in the league for the past many years now.
Between these two, neither one seems to own the other. Rashid has bowled 13 balls to Head, where he has been able to score 18 runs with a strike rate of 138.5 but has lost his wicket once. The contest would be interesting when they come against each other this time.
Jos Buttler vs Pat Cummins
Buttler got back to his form in the last game, where he scored 73 off just 39 balls and can be a serious threat to Hyderabad bowlers in this game. Pat Cummins, the leader of the bowlers as well as the team, has not been able to put their best foot forward and would be itching to do so in this game.
In their encounters, Buttler has been dominating Cummins so far. He has faced 24 deliveries from Cummins in the T20s and has smashed him for 43 runs with the help of two sixes and five boundaries while getting out to him just once.
