The 11th match of the ongoing 12th season of the Indian Premier League will be played between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bangalore at Hyderabad tomorrow. Coming on the back of an emphatic 5-wicket victory over Rajasthan Royals yesterday, the hosts would be keen on keeping the winning momentum alive.
On the other hand, Royal Challengers would be looking to register their first victory of IPL 2019. While they got bundled out on 70 in the first match against Chennai Super Kings, they lost a close encounter against Mumbai Indians.
SRH vs RCB – What numbers suggest?
Out of the 13 matches played between Hyderabad and Bangalore, Hyderabad have won seven whereas Bangalore have won only five. With the match scheduled to be played in Hyderabad, the hosts have a stellar record against RCB on their home ground. Out of six matches played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Sunrisers have won five matches as compared to Royal Challengers winning a lone match.
With SRH’s average score of 171 against RCB being more than RCB’s average score of 166 against SRH, the hosts have another advantage as far as numbers are concerned.
SRH vs RCB – Paper value
Other than the momentum being on their side, Sunrisers also look strong on paper. Despite their strong bowling unit conceding 198-2 against Rajasthan Royals last night, their batsmen being able to chase it speaks highly about the dynamics of their side. If their bowlers get their act together against RCB, the visitors are highly to be in trouble.
RCB would be once again relying on the star duo of Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers. While both of them can change the fortunes of the game at will, RCB are often found wanting because of their over-reliance on the duo. While SRH also rely heavily on opening batsman David Warner, they have other players who can contribute equally well.
Therefore, it would not be wrong to say that Sunrisers Hyderabad have the odds on their side ahead of their match against RCB.
