SRH vs RCB Dream11 Prediction: The Royal Challengers Bangalore will start as the favourites to win this game. They have a balanced squad and are in good form as well. But don't underestimate the Sunrisers as they have nothing to lose and they have quite a few match-winners in their squad.
Match: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, Match 65
Venue: Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad
Time: 7:30 PM IST
Sunrisers Hyderabad lost their last game by 34 runs against Gujarat. They have been below average-as a team this season.
RCB won their last game against Rajasthan by a massive margin of 112 runs. They will be the confident side coming into this game.
Sunrisers’ batters have struggled very badly which brings the RCB bowlers in play for this game.
Royal Challengers Bangalore are struggling with their middle order and SRH can exploit that.
Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell will be the key batters for RCB. A good knock is due from Virat Kohli as well.
SRH needs the likes of Aiden Markram, Rahul Tripathi and Abhishek Sharma to do well in this game.
Bowlers from both teams will play a key role in fantasy cricket. Batters who are good against spin will be important as well.
Average 1st innings score: 166 (IPL 2023)
Highest run-chase in last three years: 182
Average 1st innings: wickets: 7.6
Average 2nd innings wickets: 5.8
Win % of teams batting first: 50%
Win % of teams batting second: 50%
Run scoring will be difficult. The pitch will aid the spinners and there will be some assistance for bowlers with the new ball.

Poor form alert (SRH)
Markram has scored 10+ runs only twice in the last 5 matches.
Poor form alert (RCB)
Harshal Patel has only 1 wicket in the last 3 matches.
Mohammad Siraj has only 2 wickets in the last 4 matches.
You can drop Virat Kohli if RCB bats first. There is some help for the pacers with the new ball and Marco Jansen and Bhuvneshwar Kumar can exploit that. Fazalhaq Farooqi can also wreak havoc with the new ball on his day.
T Natarajan has picked up 4 of his 6 wickets while bowling first. You can pick him if SRH is bowling first.
Karn Sharma will be an excellent differential pick as SRH is vulnerable to the ball spinning away. Mayank Markande will be an ideal differential pick as well.
Heinrich Klaasen will be a good differential C/VC choice.
Pick Harshal Patel if RCB is bowling first.
You can consider dropping all the bowlers from SRH if they bat first.

Highest ownerships from the outside base team: Abhishek Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Michael Bracewell,
Abhishek Sharma vs Michael Bracewell
Abhishek Sharma will open the innings and only needs to go through Mohammad Siraj’s opening burst to score useful runs. He will bowl a few overs as well.
Bracewell’s fantasy value, on the other hand, reduces in this match as SRH has a right-hand heavy batting unit. Pick Abhishek Sharma
Rahul Tripathi
Pick Rahul Tripathi if SRH is chasing. Else pick one of Fazalhaq Farooqi or Harshal Patel
If SRH bats first
Complete team with the inclusion of Karn Sharma, Harshal Patel and Fazalhaq Farooqi
Captaincy choices: Faf, Siraj and Maxwell
Do not captain: Aiden Markam
If RCB bats first
Complete team with three of Tripathi, Abhishek and Farooqi
Captaincy choices: Faf, Jansen and Maxwell
Do not captain: Kohli
