Rajasthan Royals (RR) became the second team after the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to make the playoffs. They need at least one more victory to secure a top-two spot. Wednesday, Rajasthan Royals will play a home match in Guwahati against Punjab Kings (PBKS).
The Punjab Kings are already out of the playoff race. However, it is not assured that Rajasthan Royals will be in the top two with a win against Punjab Kings on Wednesday. Rajasthan will have 18 points if they win today. On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad(SRH) have 14 points.
They also have two matches left. So, Sunrisers also have a chance to reach 18 points. Sunrisers are also ahead in net run rate. If Rajasthan wins and Sunrisers lose the next match, Sanju & Co. is guaranteed the first two positions.
So this match is for RR to secure their place in the top two and, on the other hand, to save their honour for Punjab Kings.
Remember these points at the time of building the Dream11 Fantasy Team:
- Kohler-Cadmore has the probability to add to the squad.
- Nathan Ellis will play in this game.
