SRH vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips: 41st Match of IPL 2024 | SRH vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Today | Hyderabad Pitch Report
Everytime Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, and indeed the SRH team, walk out on the field to bat, they make believe that any score is possible. They are redefining modern day cricket as a theatre of courage, innovation and intent. With the South African pair of dynamos to follow, along with the domestic talents, Sunrisers Hyderabad are mighty hard to stop.
On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bengaluru have had one of their poorest campaigns to date as their last win came exactly a month ago. Sometimes they have been totally outplayed, and other times they were unlucky, but the facts are they have absolutely no more room for error. The side is coming off a one-run defeat in their last encounter, but they must put the disappointment aside and get back on track.
The batting department for both sides has been excellent, but concerns remain over the bowling. Nevertheless, fans are once again going to be entertained with the battle of boundaries at Hyderabad.

- Abhishek Sharma has scored 257 runs in this season. Playing against RCB he strikes at 158, and has made 166 runs doing so.
- Head (9 balls, 24 runs, 1 dismissal) and Abhishek (14 balls, 26 runs, no dismissal) have good numbers against Lockie Ferguson.
- Heinrich Klassen averages 68.8 at this venue while hitting the ball at a huge strike rate of 191. These numbers get even better when he plays against his ex-team, RCB. He has scored 203 runs in 103 balls against RCB.
- Aiden Markram at Rajiv Gandhi Intl Stadium has an average of 40 and is an equally-brutal batter in the middle of SRH lineup. In case there happens to be a collapse in firing top order, he will be there to carry his team through to the end
- Along with captaincy, Pat Cummins has been excellent with the ball too. He has taken nine wickets thus far conceding runs at just 8 RPO in all high scoring games. Playing against RCB, he has taken 11 wickets in eight outings.
- T Natarajan is the top wicket taker for his side scalping 10 of them in just five innings.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru:

- Captain Faf du Plessis (239 runs) has been decent as well. He has scored 546 runs against SRH and averages 46. If RCB has to do well, this South African Maestro needs to step up and lead with another example.
- Cameron Green made his return to the team in the last game with 2/35 with the ball. But he is yet to fire with the bat and RCB would hope him to go well against SRH. He has scored 164 runs at SR of 188.5 & importantly he is unbeaten against SRH thus far.
