Teams analysis

Sanju Samson will lead Rajasthan Royals while Kane Williamson will skipper Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Kane Williamson, Rahul Tripathi and Nicholas Pooran will be the prime batters for SRH.

The big problem is the unavailability of foreign players.

Aiden Markram and Marco Jansen are unfit whereas Glenn Phillips and Sean Abbott are yet to join the side.

RR have an excellent bowling attack.

The spin combo of R Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal is one of the best.

Even the pace department with Prasidh Krishna and Trent Boult is fearsome.

Jos Buttler and Sanju Samson will don the mantle of run-getters, along with young talents like Jaiswal and Padikkal.
