In a crucial news development, the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are once again not playing overseas batsman Harry Brook in their 11th encounter of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) season against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) taking place at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The Sunrisers Hyderabad will definitely be feeling very much high on confidence after having registered an unbelievable 4-wicket victory over Rajasthan Royals in their last match of this T20 competition.

SRH vs LSG IPL 2023: Why is Harry Brook Not Playing Today’s Match IPL?

After winning the toss and opting to bat first, the Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Aiden Markram revealed that Harry Brook is not part of the SRH playing XI for today’s SRH vs LSG match. Interestingly, he is not even part of the five substitute members out of which one can come in as an Impact Player at any moment in the game. Brook had a fabulous start to his IPL 2023 journey hitting a remarkable century in the game against Kolkata Knight Riders but other than that hundred, he has managed to score just 163 runs from 9 games at a disappointing strike-rate of less than 125. Thus, the SRH team management are playing Glenn Phillips who contributed with a Man of the Match performance in the last game against Rajasthan Royals.

“We are going to bat first, looks a good wicket. It will be on the dry side. Hopefully we get a good score and put that scoreboard pressure on them. You have to balance the conditions and what’s working for the team. In day games you can’t see it (pitch) changing too much. We are in an exciting position, hope it brings out the best in us. We have a batting all-rounder (Sanvir Singh) – he comes in for us,” said Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Aiden Markram during the toss.
