Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma provided an explosive start; Heinrich Klaasen finished with fireworks.

LSG have since bolstered their batting with Mitchell Marsh and Aiden Markram in the lineup, adding crucial depth and all-round cover. Mohammed Shami leads the bowling attack. Nicholas Pooran is their X-factor finisher. ⚠️ NOTE: Ravi Bishnoi is no longer in LSG's squad — he now plays for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2026.
Man of the Match in M6 with a sensational 76 off 39 balls. He's in the form of his life at home in Hyderabad and contributes with both bat and ball. His all-round ceiling with the captain multiplier is the highest in this match.
Head is SRH's powerplay destroyer. His record at Hyderabad is outstanding and he's motoring in IPL 2026. With the 1.5× multiplier, even a 50 from him in the powerplay gives massive points. Ideal VC for the aggressive play.
- Nitish Kumar Reddy(SRH)
The IPL 2026 star of the tournament so far. His 76 off 39 in M6 was breathtaking — powerful hitting in the death overs and smart pace bowling make him SRH's most complete match-winner. He's the Man of the Match threat in every game he plays. Captain material.
- Travis Head(SRH)
Head is the most destructive powerplay batter in T20 cricket. His strike rate of 160+ in IPL is otherworldly and at Hyderabad's balanced track he can go absolutely berserk. If he connects in the first 6 overs, SRH are posting 200+. A must-have in any fantasy XI.
- Rishabh Pant(LSG)
Pant is LSG's captain and wicketkeeper — a destructive left-handed batter who can take any attack apart. Despite LSG's M5 collapse, he was their top scorer with 47. His aggressive intent at the top of the order combined with the WK bonus makes him premium fantasy value at Hyderabad's batting-friendly surface.
- Heinrich Klaasen(SRH)
Klaasen is the ultimate T20 finisher. His ability to clear the boundary at will in the death overs is extraordinary. At Hyderabad, on a track he knows intimately, he is at his most dangerous. WK bonus + middle-order explosiveness = elite fantasy pick.
- Mohammed Shami(LSG)
Shami is one of the best new-ball operators in T20 cricket. His ability to reverse-swing in the powerplay and execute clever variations in the death makes him LSG's bowling spearhead. On Hyderabad's pace-friendly track, he can cause real damage against SRH's explosive top order.
- Ishan Kishan(SRH)
With Pat Cummins ruled out injured, Ishan Kishan takes over as SRH's interim captain. The left-handed opener and wicketkeeper is an explosive T20 batter who can score at 150+ SR at the top of the order. His WK bonus combined with his aggressive batting intent and captain's responsibility makes him a premium SRH pick at Hyderabad.
