Match Preview
After an intense battle of 70 league-stage matches, the course of action in IPL 2024 has reached the second qualifier. Kolkata Knight Riders have already made it to the finals after defeating lethal SunRisers Hyderabad. On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals took down Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Eliminator by four wickets. With the win, the 2008 IPL winners moved a step closer to their second IPL victory.
They now have to remove SRH from their path to secure the ticket to the finale. Both sides are set to clash on May 24, Friday, at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk, Chennai. The team that wins the battle will lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders on May 26 at the same venue.
Toss Prediction
The upcoming match between Rajasthan Royals and SunRisers Hyderabad will be the second occasion both sides will be up against each other in the current season. Their previous matchup was on May 2, at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The game saw SRH skipper Pat Cummins winning the toss over Sanju Samson. Considering this, we think Samson might win the toss and level the toss tally to Pat Cummins 1-1.
Win Possibility
As we mentioned, Rajasthan Royals and SunRisers Hyderabad clashed against each other once in the IPL 2024. The game saw Hyderabad registering a close one-run win over their counterparts in the last-ball thriller. If we talk about their performances throughout the season, SRH and RR won eight games each and lost five, while one got abandoned due to bad weather. SRH started the season on a subtle note but later emerged as one of the most lethal teams in the season.
RR, on the flip side, looked promising from the beginning and ended up securing their well-deserved playoff spot. However, the Pink Army lost four matches consecutively before defeating RCB in the Eliminator. The sudden drop in the performance left the fans and management worried about the Royals. Needless to say, SRH will make the most of the opportunity and come all out to attack their rivals at their weaknesses. Not only this, but Pat Cummins also wouldn’t want to miss an opportunity to win the IPL trophy after coming this close to the title.
Hence, we think SRH will emerge victorious and book their IPL 2024 finalist spot.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
