Today’s IPL Match: SRH vs RR – who’ll win Hyderabad vs Rajasthan playoff on May 24? Fantasy team, pitch report, more
Today’s IPL Match: SRH vs RR, Rajasthan Royals will take on Sunrisers Hyderbad at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chepauk in the IPL 2024 Qualifier 2 clash. The winner of the match will book a straight ticket to the final against Kolkata Knight Riders at the same venue.
Journey so far:
Rajasthan Royals produced some exceptional performances in the first half of the IPL, but lost their way in the later stages of the tournament, losing 4 of their last 5 matches, with the last one washed out due to rain. However, the RR XI looked back in form for Wednesday’s eliminator against RCB, where they handed the Faf Du Plessis-led franchise a comprehensive defeat to secure a place in the qualifiers.
Sunrisers Hyderabad had a somewhat inconsistent start to the IPL 2024, but the Pat Cummins-led franchise managed to stage a comeback in the tournament by winning 6 of their last 7 matches to end the season with 17 points and a net run rate of +0.414. SRH had suffered a crushing 8-wicket defeat at the hands of Kolkata Knight Riders in their last outing and will be looking to bounce back in the second qualifier.
SRH vs RR fantasy team:
Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klaasen, Sanju Samson, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Riyan Parag, R Ashwin, Nitesh Reddy, Yuzvendra Chahal, Pat Cummins, T Natarajan, Trent Boult
SRH vs RR pitch report:
The MA Chidambaram stadium in Chennai is known to produce tracks which are supportive to the spinners, which tends to make life difficult for the batsman. In this season, however, the Chennai pitch has delivered varying results, with 200-plus totals scored in some matches while others remain a relatively low-scoring affair.
Who’ll win SRH vs RR clash today?
We believe Rajasthan Royals will continue their winning momentum and secure a berth to the IPL 2024 final by defeating the Sunrisers Hyderabad in Chennai today.
