Why is T Natarajan not playing SRH vs RCB IPL 2023 match?

The Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have not included premier left-arm pacer T Natarajan in their starting XI for their 13th encounter of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) against the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) being hosted at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. It will be crucial for the Sunrisers Hyderabad to finish their rather disappointing IPL 2023 season on a high especially after a poor 34-run defeat at the hands of Gujarat Titans in their previous match. Sunrisers Hyderabad have already been eliminated from the race to IPL 2023 playoffs.

SRH vs RCB IPL 2023: Why is T Natarajan Not Playing Today’s IPL Match?

After having lost the toss and being asked to bat first, the Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Aiden Markram noted that T Natarajan is not included in the starting SRH playing XI for today’s SRH vs RCB match. However, he is very much part of the substitute members list out of which one can come in as an Impact Player at any moment in the encounter. Incidentally, the left-arm pacer finished with figures of 1 for 34 from his four overs during the last match against Gujarat Titans. Natarajan has ended up picking a total of 9 wickets from 11 games for SRH in Indian Premier League 2023 at an expensive economy of over 9. Thus, it is still not clear whether Natarajan will be the Impact Player for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the second innings or not.

“We would have looked to bat. Not too disappointed. Couple of changes. Brook comes in. Tyagi comes in as well. Umran is an x-factor player. Lot of pride to play for. We haven’t lived up to the ability. We should try to showcase that at the world stage in the last two games,” said Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Aiden Markram during the toss.
