IPL 2023: Rajasthan Royals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad – Dafanews Match Preview

Rajasthan Royals will lock horns against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 52nd match of the ongoing IPL 2023 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur on Sunday. RR has won five out of the nine matches they have played but they haven’t been at their absolute best in the recent past.

SRH, on the other hand, has failed to find any kind of momentum in the ongoing season. When these two teams met earlier in the season, RR won by a gargantuan margin of 72 runs. We look at the current form, head-to-head, players to look out for, and squads of both teams in our match preview.

 

Current form for SRH: L W L L L

Sunrisers Hyderabad have failed to come up with a collective effort in the ongoing season. While their bowlers have done a commendable job for them, their batters have failed to back them. Harry Brook has struggled and it wouldn’t be a bad idea to give Glenn Phillips a chance.

 

Current form for RR: L W L L W

Rajasthan Royals have veered off the track in the recent matches as they have won a solitary contest in the last four games. This is the most crucial stage of the tournament and the Sanju Samson-led team will be determined to get the momentum back on their side.

 

Head to Head: Matches: 17, Won by RR: 9, Won by SRH: 8.

It is almost even stevens in H2H battle between these two teams.

 

Players to watch out for: Mayank Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Harry Brook, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar will be the crucial players for SRH.

Jos Buttler (wk), Sanju Samson, Shimron Hetmyer, Jason Holder, Ravichandran Ashwin, Trent Boult, and Yuzvendra Chahal will hold the key for RR.
