Can Sunrisers Hyderabad attain the 2nd position in IPL 2024 points table tonight?

Pat Cummins-led Sunrisers Hyderabad will be in action later tonight against the 10th-placed Royal Challengers Bengaluru team. SRH are third right now, and if they continue their red-hot batting form against RCB, they can overtake the Kolkata Knight Riders to attain the second position in the IPL 2024 points table.

On the other side, Royal Challengers Bengaluru are in a do-or-die situation now. They have earned just two points from eight matches. A grand win over SRH tonight can take RCB to the ninth spot and even keep their slim hopes of qualifying for the playoffs alive.

Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium will host this match between SRH and RCB. This IPL 2024 contest will start at 7.30 pm IST.
