SRH vs RR, IPL 2021: Today match players list & umpires
Bottom-placed Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will hope for some luck when they face the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Match 40 of the 2021 Indian Premier League (IPL) in Dubai on Monday.
SRH have lost both their games in the UAE leg so far. With one win from nine games, this has clearly been their most shambolic season in the IPL. The remaining matches will be about playing for pride for SRH. Their objective should be to try and move up from the last position.
RR enjoyed unbelievable luck against the Punjab Kings (PBKS), winning a match they clearly did not deserve to. Their shortcomings became rather apparent against the dominant Delhi Capitals (DC). RR need to be smart with their team selection and ensure they don't end up upsetting the rhythm of the side.
