IPL 2023: Hyderabad and Rajasthan clash in today’s first match, know how will be the pitch and playing-11

SRH vs RR Match Preview: Sunrisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals will clash in the first match of IPL 2023 today (April 2). Both the teams will be face to face at 3.30 pm. This match will be played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. Let us tell you that the Rajasthan Royals team has been the finalist of the last season, while the Hyderabad team could not make it to the playoffs last time. There is no change. Most of the players in the playing-11 of the team are going to remain the same as the top-11 of the previous season. The injury of the famous Krishna will definitely be a setback for Rajasthan, but with the entry of a star all-rounder like Jason Holder, this deficiency can be made up to a great extent. On the other hand, more changes will be seen in the Hyderabad team. Players like Mayank Agarwal and Harry Brook will strengthen the team’s batting. In bowling, a spinner like Adil Rashid can prove to be important for this team. 

How is the Hyderabad pitch?
The pitch at Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium Will be suited for batting. Fast bowlers have also been getting help here. Nothing much will happen here for the spinners. If we look at the matches held here since IPL 2018, the fast bowlers have bowled at an economy rate of 8.07 and have taken wickets at a bowling average of 25.17. This is the best performance of fast bowlers as compared to other Indian venues. Chasing here can be a bit easier. In the last two T20 International matches held here, only the team batting later has achieved success.

How will be the playing-11 of both the teams?

SRH Possible Playing-11: Mayank Agarwal, Abhishek Sharma, Harry Brook, Rahul Tripathi, Glenn Phillips (wk), Washington Sundar, Abdul Samad, Bhuvneshwar Kumar (c), Akil Hossain/Adil Rashid . , R Ashwin, Akash Vashisht, Jason Holder, Trent Boult, Yuzvendra Chahal.
