Sunrisers Hyderabad will take on Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 65th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League 2023 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad on Thursday. It will be a must-win match for RCB in order to keep their playoff hopes alive whereas SRH will want to end their season on a high after getting knocked out of the tournament.
RCB were able to bag a huge win of 112 runs in their previous match against Rajasthan Royals and it gave a massive boost to their Net Run Rate. Wins in their last two matches will assure RCB a last-four spot in the playoffs.
On the other hand, SRH will want to come up with a better batting performance as it has led to their undoing in the ongoing season.
