IPL 2024: Jansen Replaces Markram As SRH Elect To Bat First Against RR
Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Sunrisers Hyderabad have won the toss and elected to bat first against table-topper Rajasthan Royals in match 50 of IPL 2024 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Thursday evening.
While RR are comfortably placed at the top of the points table with 16 points from nine matches, SRH are at fifth place with 10 points from nine games. SRH skipper Pat Cummins, who got loud cheers from the crowd on winning the toss, said their defeats in last two games while chasing had some effect on the decision to bat first.
“The games we have won, we batted first. That's probably our strength. Looks like a good wicket and nice to come back in front of home crowd,” he said. SRH have brought in left-arm fast-bowling all-rounder Marco Jansen in place of right-handed batter Aiden Markram.
