The Pat Cummins-led side needs their famed batting line-up and bowling to click against an in-form Shreyas Iyer-led Punjab Kings (PBKS) in a crucial Saturday evening clash at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cCummins and company are due, that\u2019s for sure. I can\u2019t believe Sunrisers Hyderabad are at the bottom of the table - that\u2019s unbelievable. There\u2019s been a lot of talk about the 300-run game, but I\u2019d like to think that\u2019s behind them now.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cThey should be focused on just winning the next game. They\u2019ve got a really good team and will continue with their aggressive approach. But if the moment calls for someone to steady the innings and bat a bit longer, hopefully someone will step up.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019d expect they\u2019ve learned from their earlier mistakes. They\u2019re just too good a team to be sitting at the bottom. I really believe Pat Cummins and his side will turn it around this time,\u201d said Clarke on JioStar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cThey should be focused on just winning the next game. They\u2019ve got a really good team and will continue with their aggressive approach. But if the moment calls for someone to steady the innings and bat a bit longer, hopefully someone will step up.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/tagging\/highest-tax-paying-cricketers\">Highest tax paying cricketers<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Article Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ians.in\/english-wire\/sports\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\">IANS<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n",
