SRH vs RR Dream11 Key Players best picks: Archer vs Warner and Bairstow, Ben Stokes could return with a bang

Sunrisers Hyderabad would face Rajasthan Royals in the game 23 of the IPL 2020. Rajasthan Royals are currently on a 4-game losing runs and getting desperate for a win. Sunrisers Hyderabad, on the other hand, have managed to pick up some steam after a slow start in the tournament. They have now won 3 of their last 4 games. Let’s take a look at SRH vs RR Dream11 Key Players who would be the biggest influence on the result of the game.

Jonny Bairstow

The English wicketkeeper found his rhythm against Kings XI Punjab in their last match as the batsman scored 97 runs off just 55 deliveries to win the match for the orange army. Sunrisers Hyderabad would be hoping for a similar performance from him to consolidate their position in the points table.

IPL 2020 – Games – 6, Runs – 241, Strike Rate – 138.50, Fifties – 3

Rashid Khan

The Afghan leggie has returned to his usual best after a slow start in the competition. He now has more responsibilities on his shoulders in the absence of Bhuvneshvar Kumar. The young spinner is embracing all the pressure and he has been delivering with the ball constantly. Rashid could prove to be the destructor-in-chief against a struggling batting unit of Rajasthan Royals.

IPL 2020 – Matches – 6, Wickets – 8, Economy Rate – 4.83

Jos Buttler

Jos Buttler has been blowing hot and cold so far in the competition for Rajasthan Royals. However, he would still be a dangerous customer when he would face an inexperienced pace attack of Sunrisers Hyderbad in the absence of Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Buttler would be keen to make amendments to his performances tonight and if he explodes then the bowlers would search for a corner to hide.

IPL 2020 – Matches – 5, Runs – 130, Strike Rate – 149.42

Jofra Archer

The lanky pacer once again did a great job to stop the top order of Delhi Capitals on a difficult pitch of Sharjah. He has to repeat his performance against a top-heavy side of Sunrisers Hyderabad. Archer would be responsible to stop the duo of Warner and Bairstow and if he is able to do that then Rajasthan Royals could win their first game in 5 matches.

X-Factors

Ben Stokes – The biggest all-rounder in the world cricket at the moment could return to the playing 11 of Rajasthan Royals in this game and he could make an instant impact. He would provide the balance to his side and he would be keen to add value in this match.

Steven Smith – After a brilliant start, Steven Smith hasn’t done much with the bat lately. With his team needing him the most, we could see the best of the Aussie batsman tonight.

David Warner – While Warner hasn’t been striking the ball as he used to, he is playing an anchor role to the perfection this season. He is consistent with the bat and he would be looking for another big score against RR.

T Natarajan – The young pacer has impressed everyone with his variations so far in the competition. He has been clinching wickets regularly and SRH would be hoping for another good performance from their youngster.
