SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) won the toss and opted to bowl first in their opening match of the IPL 2022 against Rajasthan Royals at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Tuesday.
Both the teams had a forgetful 2021 with a bottom-two finish and are looking to make a winning start in the ongoing season.
SunRisers’ new chapter will be beginning under the captaincy of Kane Williamson. What came as a surprise to many, the SunRisers retained the likes of two of their most promising youngsters, Umran Malik and Abdul Samad while letting go of their English power-hitters namely Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow.
Rajasthan Royals, on the contrary, will be bringing together a string of fresh faces as Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal’s inclusion will be bringing in a boatload of experience that can completely transform their chequered bowling unit, that has always been a major spot of bother for the Royals.
Rajasthan Royals (Playing XI): Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Devdutt Padikkal, Sanju Samson(w/c), Shimron Hetmyer, Riyan Parag, Ravichandran Ashwin, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Yuzvendra Chahal, Trent Boult, and Prasidh Krishna.
Sunrisers Hyderabad (Playing XI): Abhishek Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Kane Williamson(c), Nicholas Pooran(w), Aiden Markram, Abdul Samad, Washington Sundar, Romario Shepherd, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan, and Umran Malik.
