The 52nd match of IPL 2023 is set to witness a clash between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Sawai Mansingh Indoor Stadium in Jaipur on Sunday, May 7.
When, last time both teams faced each other in match number 4 of the tournament, Rajasthan Royals dominated the game, securing a resounding victory by 72 runs.
The team’s impressive performance was fueled by three half-centuries from Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, and Sanju Samson. As the two teams prepare to face off once again, cricket fans can expect a thrilling encounter. Check complete details on RR vs SRH head-to-head records.
Rajasthan Royals
In the last three games of the competition, Rajasthan Royals have only won one game, hitting the “inconsistency” button. In the total nine games of the IPL 2023, RR has won five and lost four. Rajasthan, under the captaincy of Sanju Samson, would fight to resume its winning ways in order to maintain their chances of qualifying.
Sunrisers Hyderabad
Sunrisers Hyderabad are also struggling. The Orange Army are only a few defeats away from being the first group to be declared ineligible for the playoffs.
With six points after nine games and a home loss to Kolkata by five runs, SRH is ranked 10th in IPL 2023 updated points table. After a lacklustre showing in their previous game, Hyderabad would like to improve their batting performance.
