RAJ vs HYD MPL Team: The Match 40 of the IPL 2020 will witness Rajasthan Royals lock horns against Sunrisers Hyderabad. The Rajasthan team is coming into this game after a clinical victory against Chennai Super Kings. The bowling department kept the opposition to the below-par score, which helped the team to gain momentum after the 1st half of the game. The form and pace of Archer and Tyagi would surely delight the management, while spin duo Gopal- Tewatia has been economical and have the ability to pick crucial wickets in the match. In the batting department, when the top-order failed, Smith and Buttler came to the rescue to push the team to win the match by 7 wickets.

On the other side, Sunrisers have been dismal in their performance in all the departments. Initially, they showed a good promise but consistency has been missing in almost all the players. The opening pair of Warner-Bairstow have not been able to give a good opening stand to the team, while the middle-order lacks the spark to finish well in the death overs. While their bowlers like Rashid and Sandeep are not able to provide significant contributions in each game. It will interesting to see which team comes over the top in the RAJ vs HYD MPL prediction.

RAJ vs HYD MPL Fantasy Cricket Tips

Captain Choices

J Buttler- A crucial player in the Rajasthan squad is a must pick player due to his form and past experience in the T20 format. In 9 matches, he has scored 262 runs and is currently the leading run-scorer for the team. In the last match against CSK, his match-winning innings of 70 has pushed the team forward and would like to maintain the same momentum.

D Warner- The most consistent-batsman for the SRH team over the years is a captain pick for the RAJ vs HYD today match prediction. In 9 matches, he has scored 331 runs and has been able to stay in the crease and stabilize the batting department of the team. Although, his innings could not help the team to win the league match against KKR, still is an important pick from the Sunrisers team.


Vice-Captain choices

S Smith- One of the best batsmen in the modern era of the cricket-playing nations. Along with the leadership role, he has been impressive for the Rajasthan team with 246 runs in 9 matches. With a calm head and a good composure, he stitched a partnership of 98 runs with Jos Buttler to help the team win the crucial match and kept the hopes alive to reach the playoffs.

J Bairstow- The England wicket-keeper batsman has an average of 44.76 in the IPL career. In this season, he has amassed 316 runs in 9 innings and has been impressive till now. Along with David Warner, he forms the core-part of the batting unit. Although, he has not been consistent, still has enough potential to overcome the failures, and can be a good pick for the vice-captaincy slot.


X-factors

R Tewatia- A player who has been impressive in the tournament till now, is an X-factor for the RAJ vs HYD fantasy team prediction. In 10 matches, he has picked up 7 wickets and scored 222 runs. Before this IPL, he was called a bowling all-rounder but has been quite effective with the bat for the team in the death overs. He has helped the team to win the match on two occasions by his batting performance.

P Garg- An Indian U-19 captain is another talented player in the pool of Indian youngsters.  In the match against CSK, he scored a half-century and helped the team to win the match. After that innings, he has not good enough time to stay in the crease and has only scored 106 runs in the season. Along with good fielding skills, he can be an important batsman in the middle-order for the Sunrisers team to post a good total on the board.
