The pitch is rock-hard and looks flat. Looks like a batting-friendly surface with not much assistance to the spinners. Fast bowlers might get extra bounce if they hit hard. The square boundaries are 61 metres and 64 metres and the straight boundary is 73 metres. A high-scoring match is on the cards.
Marco Jansen has been included in the SRH playing XI and Aiden Markram has been rested for the match against Rajasthan Royals. On the other hand, Sanju Samson's RR are going with the same team.
