What did the fans decide
Analysis
Team Selection
Unchanged side

Unchanged side was the popular choice.  But playing Sammy was a decision definitely worth considering.
The crucial foreign allrounder slot
Moises Henriques

Henriques was the popular choice here.
Who should bat 1 down
KL Rahul
·       43% wanted Warner at 1-down
·       38% wanted KL Rahul at 1-down
Sending Warner up the order would have been a great choice
5th over of SRH bowling
Irfan Pathan
·       64% wanted either Pathan or Henriques to bowl that over
This over changed momentum for the match.  But an overwhelming majority decided exactly what Shikar decided
Foreign Player popularity

·       Dale Steyn – 63%
·       David Warner – 23%
·       Aaron Finch – 12%
·       Darren Sammy – 2%
Dale Steyn enjoys great popularity with the SRH Fanbase
Opening Pair
Aaron Finch and Shikhar Dhawan
·       Finch & Dhawan – 62%
·       Finch & Warner – 17%
All things considered, Finch and Dhawan seem to be the right opening pair
Turning Point

·       At end of 1st Innings – 83% felt Hyderabad were ahead at that time
·       At end of 5 overs of 2nd Innings – 62% felt Hyderabad were ahead
·       At end of 10 overs of 2nd Innings – 65% felt Mumbai was ahead at this stage
Clearly Hyderabad lost the match in the first 10 overs of their bowling.  Given that Mumbai were 16/1 after 4 overs – overs 5 to 10 were the biggest negatives for Hyderabad.

Key Players: India - England

By
When there is nothing left, you will play for pride. That is what India has to do tomorrow. Considering the fact that the match is taking place in Mumbai. Do it for them. Do it for us.  England and Australia will meet each other at the finals on 31st March. India and England are more than likely to go in with the same playing eleven.
India Terribly low on morale, the team will now have to give it their all. They need to know that they are much better than this.
Key players Smriti Mandhana H Kaur Jhulan Goswami J Rodrigues Pooja Vastrakar
England The team has been doing really well since day one. They will now consider this as a practice match. But they will want to win and go to the finals with confidence. They were thumped by Australia earlier in what can be called as a one-sided game. They want to win this tomorrow.

Editor’s Pick (Nidahas T20): India - Sri Lanka

By
The table is currently in a very surprising situation. Most expected Sri Lanka to show Bangladesh the door. But here they are still standing up and shining. The tournament is wide open. Today’s match is between India and Sri Lanka. The stakes are much higher now that Bangladesh is more feared than before. The teams would not want to risk anything at this point. Earlier I had said that they might experiment with the lineup and give everyone a chance. Now it will be more than giving people a chance. They will strategize. The Indian team will be open to experimentation, but not at the cost of results.

The untested ones are Deepak Hooda, KL Rahul, and Axar Patel. India has lost to Sri Lanka in their first encounter of this tournament. They will want to be wary because another defeat could cost them the tournament itself. So, not all the new players will see the light today.
A lot depends on Rohit Sharma today. Shikhar Dhawan, Suresh Raina, Manish Pandey and Dinesh Karthik will chip in too.…
