rr vs srh Match Prediction & Analysis

The Indian Premier League 2023 has entered its most crucial stage. The Rajasthan Royals will be eying a win to get their campaign back on track in the 52nd game against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. The Royals lost against the Gujarat Titans and have struggled in the last two games. The Sunrisers also come here with a loss against the Kolkata Knight Riders in the last game.  

The Sunrisers Hyderabad have been in poor form. The side has won just three games so far in nine outings. Their record against the Rajasthan Royals has been poor in recent years, and they lost to the Royals earlier in the season. Given the stakes involved in this game from the Rajasthan Royals, we expect a close contest.  

TEAMS PREVIEW

Rajasthan Royals Preview

It has been back-to-back losses for Sanju Samson's side. Their famed batting line-up failed again as the side went down by 9 wickets against the Gujarat Titans. With this loss, the side has dropped to the fourth position on the points table. As they play in their home ground, Sampson would like to win this game and get his side's campaign back on track.  

Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal have seen a dip in their form in the last few games, and the pair will look to strike form in this crucial game. The middle order is strong, and the side will need runs from Sampson, Devdutt Padikkal, and Riyan Parag in the middle order. Shimron Hetmyer has had a good season, and he must add runs with Ravichandran Ashwin and Dhruv Jurel down the order.  

The bowling attack needs to deliver a good show in this game, and they will expect tight spells from Trent Boult and Sandeep Sharma in the early overs. Adam Zampa, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Yuzvendra Chahal add strength to this attack, and they will look to do well. The side will also expect a good show in the supporting role from Parag.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview

Aiden Markram's side lost to the Kolkata Knight Riders in the last game by 5 runs. This loss has nearly sealed their fate in the tournament. With six points, the chances for the side qualifying for the playoffs are remote. Key players have been inconsistent, and it won't be easy for the side in this game. The Sunrisers' skipper would like to see his players play their natural game.  

The top order must show consistency, and they will need runs from Mayank Agarwal and Abhishek Sharma at the top. Rahul Tripathi has done well and has an important role in the middle order with Markram and Harry Brook, who has been a one-knock wonder this season. Heinrich Klaasen, Marcon Jansen, and Abdul Samad must add quick runs down the order.  

The bowling attack has struggled in most games. They will need a good show with the new ball to put the Rajasthan Royals on the back foot. Mayank Markande has been in good form and must play an important role in this game. The side will need a good show from Kartik Tyagi, T Natarajan, and Markram in this game.  

Top Batsman – Rahul Tripathi     
Top Bowler – Mayank Markande  

Sunrisers Hyderabad Predicted Playing XI:

Aiden Markram (c), Mayank Agarwal, Abhishek Sharma, Aiden Markram (c), Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Harry Brook, Abdul Samad, Marco Jansen, Mayank Markande, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Kartik Tyagi, T Natarajan, Rahul Tripathi (Impact Player)

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

We will see clear skies at Jaipur on May 7, and the conditions will be perfect for the game. The pitch is expected to be a good one to bat on, where fast bowlers won't have much support. The first side batting would target 180 plus to feel comfortable on this surface. 

Venue Details

Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur, is a batsman's paradise. The wicket has true bounce and pace, allowing batters to hit through the line. The spinners enjoy bowling on this surface as the ball bounces and turns sharply. There isn't much assistance for the fast bowlers unless conditions are perfect.

Toss: To Bowl

The pitch has been tricky, where we have seen batsmen struggle to get going. Settling up totals on such a track is never easy. Most games have been won by sides that have chased scores. We expect this trend to continue, and the side winning the toss shall like to bowl first.

RR vs SRH
Winning Prediction

Sunrisers Hyderabad have looked down and out this year. Their top order has failed to deliver, and the bowlers were inconsistent in most games. They have to make a turnaround to win this game. The Rajasthan Royals have a powerful batting line-up that bats deep and three experienced spinners. It gives them an advantage in this game.
