As we had stated multiple times in the recent past, Sunrisers Hyderabad is obviously the most entertaining and fear team in the ongoing edition of the IPL. The same was exhibited last afternoon after Sunrisers scored a mammoth 286 runs in the first innings.

If this is a scheme of what is to come, then it should not be too long before SunRisers Hyderabad get to the elusive 300 mark in their batting Indians.
However, there is this ongoing narrative on social media, which is saying that Sunrisers Hyderabad is killing the spirit of Cricket through this extreme imbalance between batting and bowling by getting to 250+ runs at ease.

This supporting argument that certain social media folk are saying is that Hyderabad pitch curator is preparing absolute batting heavens where bowlers have nothing to work with. They are setting the example of multiple scores of over 250 runs to reinstate their fact.
The argument that is being put up on social media is that SRH is creating the kind of atmosphere where only batsmen can survive while bowlers get absolutely humiliated all over.

However, it must be noted that Hyderabad had scored over 250 runs on three occasions, last season. But only one of these games was played in Hyderabad Stadium and the other two were in away venues.
While the pitch condition in Hyderabad is obviously one of the key factors, it is also the aggressive mindset and the composure of their batters that is getting them to these scores.
It is a fact that there must be certain balance between batting and bowling for an IPL game to prosper. But that doesn’t mean, SRH must change their mindset to play slower innings, just for the sake of it. It is all about the capability and aggressive mindset of the franchise that is going to dictate the way they play.
On solution that can be found here is that the pitch might be more compatible for bowling conditions, which would perhaps change the way the game goes on.
