Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Royal Challengers Bangalore: The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) are going through their worst run of form in the IPL ever. Their batting and bowling orders failed simultaneously, and luck is not on their side. They lost their most recent match against KKR by one run, which was the smallest conceivable margin. They are at the bottom of the table, and it’s almost impossible for them to qualify for the next round of the tournament.
On the other hand, SRH this season is in rampage mode; their batting order is not just scoring runs; they are bashing the opposing bowlers. They scored 200+ runs four times in the seven games they have played this season, so it is like a daily routine to them. They will take advantage of RCB’s poor bowling, and if RCB fails to bowl well, we might witness the highest run record being broken for the third time this season.
The 41st T20 match between Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Royal Challengers Bangalore will take place on April 25th, 2024, at Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad.

Preview
SRH is enjoying batting this season, and whenever they bat first, we witness a run-feast. Both the openers, Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, are performing brilliantly. In the last match, where they beated DC by 67 runs, the duo scored a 100-run partnership inside the powerplay. SRH has broken the highest runs in an inning record twice this season, and with RCB’s weak bowling, we might see that again.
SRH is currently standing 3rd in the table with 5 wins from 7 games. They will take full advantage of this game to beat RCB and secure their spot in the top 4. Apart from the openers, SRH’s solid middle order is also in red-hot form. Players like Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, and Shahbaz Ahmed have taken responsibility for building high scores.
The bowling department needs to step up in this game because, to reach further in the tournament, they need equal performance from the bowlers too. The bowlers must have gained confidence against Delhi, as T. Natarajan took four wickets by just giving up 19 runs. We think winning the game against RCB SRH’s bowling will have to be the trump card.
Full Squad:
Aiden Markram, Travis Head*, Rahul Tripathi, Mayank Agarwal, Abdul Samad, Anmolpreet Singh, Heinrich Klaasen, Upendra Yadav, Wanindu Hasaranga*, Marco Jansen, Washington Sundar, Shahbaz Ahmed*, Glenn Phillips, Abhishek Sharma, Sanvir Singh, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Pat Cummins* (c), Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan, Jaydev Unadkat*, Umran Malik, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Akash Singh*, Mayank Markande, J Subramanyan.
Players to watch out for in:
Travis Head
Both the openers, Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, are performing brilliantly. Head is currently 3rd in the Orange cap race with 324 runs and with another explosive batting he can steal it in the game.
T. Natarajan
T. Natarajan took four wickets by just giving up 19 runs against Delhi. He will be the player to watch out for.
Possible Playing XI:
Pat Cummins (c), Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Abdul Samad, Nitish Reddy, Shahbaz Ahmed, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, T Natarajan, Washington Sundar (Impact Player)
Royal Challengers Bangalore (Match Odds- 2.25)
Preview
The team of Faf du Plessis is almost eliminated from contention for the next round. They are at the bottom of the points table, having only won one in eight games. The team lost heartbreakingly, falling short by only one run to the Kolkata Knight Riders. Despite their poor performance this year, the bowling assault will attempt to win and upset rising SRH.
As the team’s two finest batsmen, Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis must lead from the front to the top. The team would like to see runs from Will Jacks, Rajat Patidar, and Cameroon Green. The middle order has performed well. Mahipal Lamror, Suyash Prabhudessai, and Dinesh Karthik round up the team’s potent batting order.
The bowlers for RCB need to straighten up because they have been this team’s weakest link. Yash Dayal and Muhammad Siraj will need to play well with the new ball for the team. In the middle overs, Lockie Ferguson and Karn Sharma need to control the scoring. Due to their poor bowling attack, the team will also be looking on Cameroon Green for a strong performance.
Full Squad:
Faf du Plessis (c), Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Saurav Chauhan*, Dinesh Karthik, Anuj Rawat, Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green*, Suyash Prabhudessai, Mayank Dagar*, Manoj Bhandage, Will Jacks, Mahipal Lomror, Karn Sharma, Tom Curran*, Swapnil Singh*, Mohammed Siraj, Himanshu Sharma, Rajan Kumar, Reece Topley, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Akash Deep, Alzarri Joseph*, Yash Dayal*, Lockie Ferguson*
Players to watch out for in:
Virat Kohli
Virat Kohli must lead from the front to the top. He along with faf are the only pillars of the team.
Yash Dayal
Yash Dayal will need to play well with the new ball for the team.
Possible Playing XI:
Faf du Plessis (c), Virat Kohli, Will Jacks, Rajat Patidar, Cameron Green, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Mahipal Lomror, Karn Sharma, Lockie Ferguson, Yash Dayal, Mohammed Siraj, Suyash Prabhudessai (Impact Player)

Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Pitch Report:
For batsmen, Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad is a great environment. Players can bat fluently as the ball reaches the bat here. Fast bowlers have few options on this course, and success requires them to bend. Here, spinners have found success and have loved the conditions.
Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Match Report:
It’s difficult for Royal Challengers Bengaluru to advance to the following round. They’ve lost games by slim margins, and the bowlers in particular lack confidence in the camp. With their aggressive batting, the Sunrisers Hyderabad have destroyed bowling attacks. Based on the two teams’ respective forms, the Sunrisers Hyderabad are the game’s initial favourites. But we can never count out RCB not in their worst form.
