\n<\/p>\n

In a trade-off between explosiveness and consistency, Sunrisers Hyderabad head coach Daniel Vettori clearly prefers the former.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He understands that T20 batting is all about taking calculated risks, which, as the phrase suggests, is fraught with risk.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dashing openers Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma have been empowered by this philosophy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWithin the group, there\u2019s no expectation that they can do it every single time. They play a high-octane game that puts a lot of teams under pressure. And with that, sides have tried to adapt and find a way to bowl to them. The opposition has bowled really well at them in a couple of games. The challenge for Trav and Abhi is to combat that,\u201d Vettori said on Friday, on the eve of the IPL 2026 match against Punjab Kings at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Stadium.<\/p>\n

The Kiwi, though, did point out the duo\u2019s success against Kolkata Knight Riders (94 runs collectively) incidentally, is the only match SRH has tasted success this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were at their best in the second game. The start that they got us was one of the main reasons we were able to win against KKR.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re two of the best players in this format, and I have no doubt they\u2019ll be able to come back and put on those performances that we\u2019re used to. We\u2019re not sitting and hoping that they do it every game. We just expect them to go out there and be aggressive\u2026 and hopefully it comes off more times than it doesn\u2019t\u201d.<\/p>\n
