“Happy to be home”: SRH head coach Daniel Vettori on CSK clash in Hyderabad

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India]: Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) head coach Daniel Vettori said that he is happy to return to their home stadium at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium to take on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Friday.

The Sunrisers will also go into this clash on the back of a 7-wicket loss to last year’s losing finalists, Gujarat Titans (GT).

The Hyderabad-based franchise is currently at the seventh place on the IPL standings, with just two points. Their first and only win of the ongoing IPL season came against five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.

In a video shared on the official social media handle of SRH, Vettori said that they took a day off before the match which helped them to gain more energy.

The head coach added that they are having a “good vibe” after coming back home.
“That’s been good. We had a chance, obviously, to have a day off for the first time yesterday. So I think the guys came to training with some nice energy. We had a full training squad. It’s good to see the guys compete and it feels like happy to be home. Some good memories, obviously, from the last game here and it’s a really good vibe,” Vettori said.
