IPL 2024: Hyderabad desperate to get its campaign back on track, match against RR today

When captain Pat Cummins' team Sunrisers Hyderabad faces IPL leader Rajasthan Royals on Wednesday, it will aim to get its campaign back on track. Rajasthan has 16 points and against them, Hyderabad team looks scattered after excellent performance in the last few matches. This match will be very important for Hyderabad because Rajasthan's place in the playoffs is almost certain. A few days ago, the in-form Hyderabad team had lost against RCB and CSK. Due to which she is out of the top-4. Hyderabad is at fifth position with four wins and four losses. The experience of too many attacks now seems to be weighing heavily on Hyderabad. The onus of batting is heavy on openers Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma. If both flop, his batting falls apart. Aiden Markram will have to return to form because he has not been able to score big till now. On the other hand, the trip to Rajasthan was very good. Jos Buttler, Jaiswal and captain Sanju Samson are in excellent form. Hetmyer, Powell and Ryan Parag are strengthening the batting middle order.
