Toss prediction
The pitch at the Sawai Mansingh stadium in Jaipur has been slightly two-paced with teams batting first struggling a bit. The team winning the toss will want to bowl first.
Win probability
Rajasthan Royals might not be in great form but given how poor Sunrisers Hyderabad have been, Rajasthan have a win probability over 70%.
Average score
The average score in T20 matches at the Sawami Mansingh stadium in Jaipur is around 170 for night games in the IPL.
Pitch and conditions
The pitch here is good for batting generally, but the two-paced nature this season has seen spinners enjoy a good time. The dew will, however, help the chasing side in night games.
Players to keep an eye on…
RR Predicted playing XI:
Jos Buttler, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson, Devdutt Padikkal, Shimron Hetmyer, Dhruv Jurel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Adam Zampa, Trent Boult, Sandeep Sharma, Yuzvendra Chahal
SRH Predicted playing XI:
Abhishek Sharm, Rahul Tripathi, Mayank Agarwal, Aiden Markram, Harry Brook, Heinrich Klaasen, Akeal Hosein, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, T Natarajan, Kartik Tyagi
Yashasvi Jaiswal: Jaiswal has gone big in the recent matches with Jos Buttler out of form and will hope to take full toll of a listless SRH attack.
Aiden Markram: The SRH skipper showed signs of returning to form last game and could be a crucial player if Sunrisers are to test Rajasthan on this surface.

Yuzvendra Chahal isn’t in good form, but has an array of overseas right-handers to target in this game, making his job slightly easier. Back Chahal at 3.96 to be Rajasthan’s top bowler!
