Rajasthan Royals will play Sunrisers Hyderabad in Match 50 of IPL 2024 at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Thursday. Here are some IPL 2024 match prediction and insights.
SRH is presently fifth in the rankings, with 10 points in nine matches, while RR leads with 16 points in nine matches.
After two defeats, SRH may make changes to their team, with Washington Sundar or Mayank Markande joining the spin department and Aiden Markram being replaced by Glenn Phillips.
RR is unlikely to make any changes to their winning squad, but they may have to decide whether to play Ravichandran Ashwin, who has only two wickets in eight matches.
Bowling squads vs Batting teams.
In a season when 200-plus totals are scored every other day, the Rajasthan Royals have only given up one.
Sunrisers Hyderabad set and subsequently broke the record for the highest total in IPL history.
This match between the top bowling side in the IPL and the best batting side has been a long time coming.
With Trent Boult’s predilection for first-over wickets, the Royals are one of just two teams to average less than 30 in the powerplay. While the other being Gujarat Titans.
They’re also conceding only eight runs per over. Could they keep it up when they face Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, and Heinrich Klaasen on a pitch where sixes have been prevalent, with one every two overs? Read on to learn more, on 2024 IPL match prediction.

Insights on the team and players
Rajasthan is on a winning streak with 8 wins in 9 matches and is close to securing a spot in the playoffs. SRH is in fifth place with 10 points.
SRH relies heavily on their pacers like Pat Cummins and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
On the other hand, Rajasthan has a balanced bowling squad with experienced players like Trent Boult and Ravichandran Ashwin leading the attack.
T Natarajan (SRH)
He has been outstanding this season, taking 13 wickets in seven matches. The 33-year-old will face a struggle in containing the RR batsmen in both the early and late innings. Natarajan, who has dismissed Riyan Parag twice before, could be a solid option against him.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar(SRH)
The 34-year-old Indian pacer has 175 IPL wickets in his career, but he only took five this season. The right-arm medium-fast bowler has previously dismissed Jos Buttler six times and RR skipper Samson three times. His expertise should come in handy against the RR top-order hitters who are currently in form.
Yuzvendra Chahal (RR)
The Indian right-arm leg spinner has taken 13 wickets in the IPL, bringing his total to 200. The most by any player in IPL history. Although Chahal remains relatively expensive this season, he will be critical against the SRH middle order. The 33-year-old has previously fired Klassen three times. He will also prove successful against Travis Head.
Sandeep Sharma (RR)
The 30-year-old right-arm medium-fast bowler has taken eight wickets in just four games. With the pace difference in the early overs, he might be quite successful against the big hitters from SRH. The table leader has won the last four matches in a row. While the hosts have lost their way and dropped to fifth place following two straight losses.
Both teams’ batsmen are in excellent form, scoring big on a regular basis. It’s set to be a high-scoring thriller between two of the best batting teams in the IPL.
Shimron Hetmyer (RR):
He has faced just 36 balls this season. That is actually an indication of things going well for the Royals. Three of his teammates above him have scored more than 300 runs. This gives him fewer opportunities to get out there and make an impact. That does not imply he has been deficient. Hetmyer has scored 70 runs off 36 balls, including five fours and five sixes. He’s an expert finisher.
