The Rajasthan Royals kickstarted their IPL 2020 campaign with two magnificent victories at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. However, when they have played outside Sharjah, the Royals have looked out of touch.
After suffering a hat-trick of losses, the Steve Smith-led franchise have dropped to the bottom half of the IPL 2020 points table with only four points in five matches. They will battle the 2nd-placed Delhi Capitals, who have registered four wins in their first five fixtures, in their next game.
Both teams are unbeaten at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in IPL 2020 so far. Here's a look at the pitch report and weather conditions for match number 23 of the season.
