New Delhi. Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad teams will clash on Friday to make it to the IPL final. This match of IPL Qualifier-2 will be played in Chennai. The pitch here has been helpful for spinners. In such a situation, the magic of Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin can be seen in this match. Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, who gave a great start to Sunrisers Hyderabad, can get a tough challenge from this clever spin duo of Rajasthan.
The pair of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma have given a new style to batting in the powerplay. The pair got the name 'Trevishack' from fans. Head has scored 533 runs in the current season at a strike rate of 199.62. Abhishek has 470 runs in his name at a strike rate of 207.04. Together, both have hit 72 sixes and 96 fours so far. Apart from this, Sunrisers have an excellent batsman in the form of Heinrich Klaasen (413 runs at a strike rate of 180) who has hit 34 sixes.

T20 World Cup: Sanju Samson not in Yuvraj Singh's playing XI, Hardik's fitness also a concern…
The pitch of MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai will be slightly different from Uppal (Hyderabad). The ball stops here and it is not easy to play big shots as soon as it comes. This is also the home pitch of off-spinner Ashwin. He is well aware of this and is in great form. Rajasthan Royals will hope that Ashwin along with leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal will send Head, Abhishek and Klaasen to the pavilion as soon as possible.
SRH struggling with lack of spinners
As far as Sunrisers' bowling is concerned, once again this responsibility will be on Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Pat Cummins and T Natarajan. Natarajan has been the team's highest wicket-taker this season. He would like to take advantage of the conditions while playing on his home ground. Sunrisers' problem is also the lack of good spinners in the team. Mayank Markande and Shahbaz Ahmed are not effective.
Talking about Rajasthan Royals, Yashasvi Jaiswal seems to be returning to form. He would like to continue this form before the T20 World Cup next month. Captain Sanju Samson will have to perform better as he has not been able to touch the 20-run mark in the last three matches. There will be pressure on Dhruv Jurel in the middle order who could not even touch the double-digit mark in his last two matches. Hyderabad's team will also rely on West Indies' Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell who showed power hitting against Bangalore. Riyan Parag, who is in great form in the current season, is one of the reliable batsmen of the Royals.
Sunrisers Hyderabad: Pat Cummins (captain), Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Heinrich Klaasen, Aiden Markram, Abdul Samad, Nitish Reddy, Shahbaz Ahmed, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jaydev Unadkat, T Natarajan, Mayank Markandey, Umran Malik, Anmolpreet Singh, Glenn Phillips, Rahul Tripathi. . , Washington Sundar, Upendra Yadav, J Subramaniam, Sanveer Singh, Vijaykant Vyaskant, Fazalhaq Farooqui, Marco Yenson, Akash Maharaj Singh and Mayank Agarwal.
