In the 26th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 will be played between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Rajasthan Royals  (RR) at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday. Although the Royals had a brilliant start to their IPL campaign, they are have suffered four consecutive losses and have just had four points out of a possible twelve owing to the loss of form of captain Steve Smith and Sanju Samson.

However, they will be expected to include Ben Stokes for this game, whose quarantine period ends on Saturday. With the likes of Jofra Archer and Rahul Tewatia performing brilliantly in recent games, the Royals would be hopeful of a morale-boosting win on Sunday. On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad had registered a brilliant 69-run win over bottom-placed Kings XI Punjab.

Despite losing Mitchell Marsh and Bhuvneshwar Kumar to season-ending injuries, SRH has managed to win games on their merit with Rashid Khan at his menacing best in the middle overs. David Warner and Jonny Bairstow’s form at the top of the order only sweetens the deal for the 2016 IPL champions as they eye a fourth win in IPL 2020.

Nevertheless, both teams look well-matched on paper, especially with the inclusion of Ben Stokes, which paves the way for an exciting start to the double-header on Sunday.

Let us take you all to the Probable Fantasy XI you can create with the following tips:-

Wicket-Keepers

With none of the players having much of a practice, Jonny Bairstow seems to be a better pick as he has been known for making a strong comeback and he will be much more effective on slow pitches this season. However, for RR, Jos Buttler will be keeping the wickets as he is known for playing match-winning knocks, but in order to maintain the balance of the IPL Fantasy XI, Bairstow seems better pick.

Batsmen

David Warner, Steve Smith, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Kane Williamson have always been the prime contenders for the fantasy cricket. Even, Priyam Garg can also be added in fantasy cricket and that will depend on the balance of the squad. Apart from them, there are some useful batsmen in the line-ups as well, like Manish Pandey, and Mahipal Lomror (if he plays).

Bowlers
