Preview
The Hyderabad team has been in complete disarray in this competition so far. After losing five of their first six matches, the franchise had to take a tough call of dropping captain David Warner and naming Kane Williamson as the new captain. This will be the second stint of Williamson as the skipper of this franchise. But, they will be up against another team that hasn’t been in the best of forms.
Rajasthan is coming into this match after a loss against Mumbai. They have won only two of their six matches so far and are at a position where the season is slipping out of their hands once again. The situation of the league has made this encounter quite interesting, considering that both the teams desperately need a wicket.
