RR vs SRH Live Score, IPL 2026: Yashasvi Jaiswal and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi vs Travishek as Royals eye revenge against Sunrisers at home

Sunrisers Hyderabad come into this match with confidence after having beaten Rajasthan Royals earlier in the season. That win on April 13 is still part of the narrative around this fixture. SRH had dominated that game across departments and will now look to repeat a similar performance, even in an away setting at Jaipur.

SRH are currently placed fourth on the points table. Their season has seen ups and downs due to inconsistency, but they have managed to stay in the playoff race. The team’s recent form has improved, and they are also on a winning run, which began with that victory against RR.

The side has relied heavily on its aggressive top order. Batters like Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Ishan Kishan and Heinrich Klaasen have been central to their approach. The strategy has been clear: attack from the ball-go and put pressure on the opposition bowling unit.

Fresh from his hundred against Delhi Capitals, Abhishek Sharma will again be one of the key players to watch. Travis Head’s role at the top also remains important, especially in setting the tempo.

SRH’s bowling, however, remains a point of concern. The unit has shown improvement in recent matches but still lacks experience, especially in the absence of skipper Pat Cummins in some games. His return for this fixture is expected to strengthen both leadership and balance.

SRH will aim to maintain their aggressive intent and try to extend their winning momentum against a strong RR side at home.
