#6 Sunrisers Hyderabad - Yusuf Pathan

Yusuf Pathan is not the player he once was. The hard-hitting batsman has waned in recent years and his hitting abilities seem to have vanished. In his last 33 IPL games, Pathan has scored only one fifty and his strike rate has also declined. For a player who single-handedly won games in his peak, Pathan has rarely done that in the past couple of seasons. SRH could slot someone else in his place.

#5 Kolkata Knight Riders - Chris Lynn

Chris Lynn is not in good form at the moment. He didn't have a great time in the Big Bash League either, scoring just 385 runs at a strike rate of 126.

He has lost his place in the national team and did not show any sign of intent in his first three games for KKR this season with just 37 runs in three games at a strike rate of 94. KKR have Joe Denly in the squad, who is an opening batsman and also a handy bowler.
