Preview
Sunrisers Hyderabad will play against Rajasthan Royals in the Qualifier 2 of the IPL 2024 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The Qualifier 1 was a one-sided battle in which SRH lost to KKR, which has put them in a must-win situation in their upcoming IPL playoffs match. The circumstances will be no different for RR in the IPL 2024 Qualifier 2, who managed to win their first game in nearly three weeks, getting the better of RCB in the Eliminator.
Pitch Report
The pitches at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai have been quite good for batting in the IPL 2024, with totals in the range of 200 runs getting scored regularly. With that, the average first innings score of 165 at this venue in the history of the IPL, is going to be a below-par total to defend, especially with dew expected to arrive as the play goes on.
Team Analysis
Sunrisers Hyderabad
The IPL 2024 Qualifier 1 was a night to forget for Sunrisers Hyderabad, starting with their star opening pair of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, who lost their wickets early against Kolkata Knight Riders, which led to them posting a below-par total of 159 on the board. The bowling attack of SRH was unable to put any pressure on the KKR batters, who chased down the total successfully with a lot of overs to spare.

Rajasthan Royals
Rajasthan Royals were exceptional with the ball in the IPL 2024 Eliminator against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, with the likes of Trent Boult and Ravichandran Ashwin leading the way. In pursuit of the 173-run target, the RR batters were involved in a few needless dismissals, but most of them made decent contributions at the same time, which led to a rather comfortable win for them against RCB at the very end.
