There have been few constants from last season, few have thrown a surprise and the remaining look to hang in there as the final phase of the league stage awaits. And before the competition resumes on Tuesday, we take a look at all the eight teams and how they have fared at the mid-season mark.
New Zealand captain Kane Williamson was announced as Warner's replacement as SRH's skipper after the team made a dismal start to the season, winning just once in seven matches.
Warner, on Saturday, was replaced by Williamson as the Hyderabad outfit announced a change in captaincy midway through the season.
Sunrisers Hyderabad's misery continued as they suffered their sixth defeat this season, losing to Rajasthan Royals by 55 runs in Delhi. In match no.29, Delhi Capitals opted to bowl against Punjab Kings, who will be without KL Rahul tonight.
Put into bat, opener Jos Buttler cracked a 64-ball 124, while skipper Sanju Samson made 48 off 33 balls as RR posted a challenging 220 for three.
