Pitch Report

The surface at the MA Chidambaram Stadium mostly favours the batters, especially in the first innings of the game as the team batting first has won 48 matches here in comparison to 35 wins of the team batting second out of the total of 85 matches played here. It also has very good assistance for the spinners.

However, the toss might not have that much impact as the toss-winning team has won 42 matches while the toss-losing team has won 41 matches. Despite that, the captain winning the toss will be looking ahead to bat first and put the opponent in a typical run-chase.

Top Players for SRH vs RR Dream11 Match

Top Players – Sunrisers Hyderabad

Travis Head – The star SRH opener didn’t have an expected outing in the last two matches including both SRH’s last league match and the first qualifier of the tournament. He went back to the pavilion on two consecutive ducks but still, he is the leading run-scorer for SRH so far in the tournament, scoring 533 runs in 13 innings of the 13 matches he has played so far, with an average of 44.41, hitting a century and 4 half-centuries. He is expected to make a big comeback in the second qualifier.

T Natarajan – The star pacer has been very consistent with the ball for SRH in the ongoing IPL 2024, scalping 18 wickets in 12 innings with an economy rate of 9.12 and a strike rate of 15.44, including one four-wicket haul and a best performance of 4/19 in a match. He could also be one of the top players for SRH in the must-win 2nd Qualifier against RR.

Top Players – Rajasthan Royals

Riyan Parag – The star RR batter has enjoyed a golden run of form in the current season of the tournament, being the leading run-scorer for his side so far. He has scored 567 runs in 13 innings of the 15 matches he has played so far for RR, with an amazing average of 56.70, hitting 4 half-centuries, and having a strike rate of 151.60.

Yuzvendra Chahal – The veteran leg spinner has been very impressive with the ball for the Rajasthan Royals in the ongoing IPL 2024. He has claimed 18 scalps in 14 innings with an economy rate of 9.48 and a strike rate of 18.00 with the best performance of 3 wickets just at the cost of 11 runs in a match. He might also be a game-changer in the SRH vs RR Dream11 Match.

SRH vs RR Must Picks for Dream11 Cricket

T Natarajan – SRH’s key pacer and one of the most trusted pacers in the current edition of the tournament so far has trapped the batters with his amazing skills. He could leave a big impact in the SRH vs RR game with his ability to perform in a big match. So, he is one of the must-picks in this SRH vs RR Dream11 Match.

Riyan Parag – The young batter has stunned everyone with his outstanding performance throughout the IPL 2024. Considering his current form and the outstanding average of 56.70, Parag is surely going to be a must-pick in the fantasy team of the SRH vs RR Dream11 Match.

Suggested Playing XI No. 1 SRH vs RR Dream11 Cricket Fantasy

Travis Head (C), Yuzvendra Chahal (VC), Sanju Samson, Heinrich Klaasen, Rahul Tripathi, Abhishek Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Riyan Parag, Nitish K Reddy, Pat Cummins, and T Natarajan.

Abhishek Sharma (C), Trent Boult (VC), Sanju Samson, Heinrich Klaasen, Travis Head, Rahul Tripathi, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Riyan Parag, Nitish K Reddy, Yuzvendra Chahal, and Pat Cummins.

SRH vs RR Risky Captaincy Choices

Heinrich Klaasen – The explosive SRH batter had enjoyed a sensational run of form in the first half of the ongoing IPL 2024 but he has been seen struggling in the second half of the tournament. So, it might not be a good choice to make him the captain of the fantasy team of SRH vs RR Dream11 Match.

Yashasvi Jaiswal – The young RR opener played a good knock of 45 runs in the Eliminator against the Rajasthan Royals but still, he had a lot of issues with the consistency in the league stage of the tournament. So, it would be better to add him in the fantasy team only as a player not as the captain.
