Heading into the 36th game of the tournament, it\u2019s a double-header day, with the night match between Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad at Sawai Mansingh Stadium. It is the first match of the season in Jaipur, the home ground for RR, and it will be interesting to see how the pitch behaves and how both teams adapt.<\/p>\n
Rajasthan Royals head into their first home game in Jaipur with a clear pattern. After early collapses, their top order has taken a measured approach, but recent totals of 155 and 159 show a lack of push in the middle. Their strengths remain intact. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Dhruv Jurel have contributed steadily, while Jofra Archer and Ravindra Jadeja anchor the bowling. Against Sunrisers Hyderabad, a stronger powerplay could shape the result.<\/p>\n
RR Probable XI:\u00a0<\/strong>Yashasvi Jaiswal, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Dhruv Jurel, Riyan Parag, Shimron Hetmyer, Ravindra Jadeja, Donovan Ferreira, Jofra Archer, Sandeep Sharma, Ravi Bishnoi, Brijesh Sharma<\/p>\n Impact subs:\u00a0<\/strong>Nandre Burger,\u00a0 Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Ravi Singh<\/p>\n Injuries\/Unavailabilities:\u00a0<\/strong>All players are fit and available for selection<\/p>\n Watch Live Streaming:<\/strong> Fans can watch the RR vs SRH match live on the app and website of JioHotstar.<\/p>\n Toss Time:<\/strong>\u00a07:00 PM<\/p>\n Pitch report: <\/strong>A typical hot April day is expected, with temperatures easing slightly by evening. The venue has produced high scores, averaging 198 last season, though chasing sides still held the edge in results. Big square boundaries and low bounce keep bowlers in play, especially those who rely on skiddy pace and control.<\/p>\n Head to head: <\/strong>Sunrisers Hyderabad lead 13-9 overall and have won the last five meetings against Rajasthan Royals. In Jaipur, the record stands level at 2-2.<\/p>\n Sunrisers Hyderabad have found stability after early issues with their pace attack. Pat Cummins returns to lead a unit now supported by form and variety, strengthening rather than fixing it. Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen remain key with the bat, while contributions from newer bowlers have added depth ahead of the second half.<\/p>\n SRH Probable XI:<\/strong> Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Ishan Kishan, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Salil Arora, Aniket Verma, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Shivang Kumar, Pat Cummins (c), Sakib Hussain, Eshan Malinga<\/p>\n Impact subs: <\/strong>Smaran Ravichandran, Harsh Dubey, Liam Livingstone, Dilshan Madhushanka, Harshal Patel, Praful Hinge<\/p>\n Injuries\/Unavailabilities:<\/strong> The Sunrisers skipper is finally set for his long-awaited comeback, with Dilshan Madushanka likely to make way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n Jaipur return meets SRH momentum<\/strong><\/p>\n Rajasthan Royals return to Jaipur with a solid position but familiar questions. A split-home season has not hurt results yet, though middling totals around 155 have exposed a middle order that has not built on strong starts. Their top order and pace attack, led by Jofra Archer, remain reliable, but they need a more complete batting effort.<\/p>\n Sunrisers Hyderabad arrive with momentum and a settled combination. Pat Cummins returns to lead a stronger attack, while Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen continue to drive their batting. Five straight wins over RR add context, but Jaipur offers a different test.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Heading into the 36th game of the tournament, it\u2019s a double-header day, with the night match between Rajasthan Royals and\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":473,"featured_media":49256,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-50244","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ipl"],"reading_time":"3 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50244","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/473"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=50244"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50244\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":50245,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50244\/revisions\/50245"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49256"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50244"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50244"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=50244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
