1. Team News – Sunrisers Hyderabad
Sunrisers have stuck to the same playing 11 in the first two matches of the IPL 2021 second phase. And with a few players unavailable and nothing to play for, they may thinking about tinkering their side by testing their bench players. For starters they could add all-rounder Abhishek Sharma or Virat Singh in place of Kedar Jadhav. Meanwhile, the likes of Jason Roy, Jagadish Suchith among others also could get a look in.
2. Team News – Rajasthan Royals
Royals dropped South Africa all-rounder Chris Morris for his compatriot and wrist spinner Tabraiz Shamsi in their last match. They also brought back David Miller into the side for Evin Lewis and tinkered with the batting line-up by opening with Liam Livingstone, but they may replace the English all-rounder with New Zealander Glenn Phillips or West Indian Lewis. Riyan Parag, who has failed to deliver, may also be replaced by Shreyas Gopal.
