Hello and Welcome to our preview for Rajasthan Royals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Match. We are covering RR vs SRH Dream11 Team Prediction, Preview and Probable Playing XI for the T20 match. The match is to be played at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.

Rajasthan Royals have failed to make a mark in IPL’19 and are second last on the points table with four wins in eleven matches. However, They won their last match against KKR by 3 wickets. Bowling first, Varun Aaron bowled lethal opening spell taking two wickets to restrict KKR at 175. Oshane Thomas, Gopal and Unadkat also took one scalp each. Chasing the target, Ajinkya Rahane and Sanju Samson gave a good start to the team with former scoring 34 runs. However, 17-year old Riyan Parag played match-winning knock of 47 runs and was supported by quick cameos of Archer and Gopal to ensure much-needed victory for their team. Royals will be heavily affected due to the departure of Stokes and Archer but will be determined to put their best effort in remaining three matches to stay alive in the race for playoffs.
