Lara attributed their poor form to the team’s lack of impact with the bat, stating that early wickets and the absence of partnerships have hurt the team.
In their most recent match against Kolkata Knight Riders, Sunrisers fell short with the bat, finishing with 166 in a chase of 172, with Varun Chakaravarthy defending eight in the final over.
Lara believes that the team needs to focus on match awareness and the importance of partnerships, stating that while being aggressive is important, the players also need to use their intellect to get the job done.
