Sunday’s doubleheader will see the 11th and 12th match of IPL 2019 taking place. The first match of the day will be played between the last year runners-up Sunrisers Hyderabad who will be Royal Challengers Bangalore at their home followed by a pulsating clash between Rajasthan Royals and the defending champions Chennai Super Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
Sunrisers have finally got themselves going on the points table with a belligerent win over Rajasthan Royals last night at their home in Hyderabad. Things, however, are not looking good for Royal Challengers Bangalore as they have lost both their games so far and are looking disrupted.
The last game for RCB ended amidst controversy where the last ball was not given a no-ball by the umpire that too at a very crunch situation of the match. However, RCB needs to regroup and come up with something valiant to possess a threat for the other teams in their upcoming matches.
Sunrisers Hyderabad and the Royal Challengers Bangalore have been involved in many mouthwatering contests off late. who can forget that 8-over game which was won by Royal Challengers Bangalore on the very last ball of the match when skipper Kohli hit the ball for a straight six in 2015. The 2016 IPL final was played between these two sides at the Chinnaswamy which was won by SRH.
Talking about the head-to-head battle, it is led by Sunrisers Hyderabad by 7 games to 5 from 13 outings where one match ended without any result.
Here in this article, we have come up with some Grand League Teams depending on the current scenarios and match situations to help you win big with minimal investments.
