The Sunrisers Hyderabad will take on the Rajasthan Royals at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in the Indian Premier League on Monday. SRH are in sixth place, while RR lead the league standings after four games. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Sunrisers Hyderabad have made a disappointing start to the 2026 IPL season, losing three of their four games, including a six-wicket defeat to the Punjab Kings on Saturday afternoon.
Despite their results, Heinrich Klaasen has been in impressive form for SRH this season, currently second in the Orange Cap standings with 184 runs in four innings, including two half-centuries.
Pat Cummins suffered a setback in his injury rehabilitation and has returned to Australia for further evaluation. There is no official confirmation on his return date as yet.
Meanwhile, the Rajasthan Royals have been in incredible form this season, and are now leading the league standings as the only team with a perfect record of four wins from four games.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi currently hold the Orange Cap, and Ravi Bishnoi has the Purple Cap. The team have three players currently ranked in the top five run scorers in the tournament at present.
RR has the outright best net run rate in the competition (+2.055). This is an opportunity for revenge too, as they’ve lost their last four matches against this opponent.

Our Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals Prediction
The Sunrisers Hyderabad have made a poor start to the season, and while they have looked decent with the bat, they’ve lacked firepower with the ball, and are now set for an extended period without their skipper Pat Cummins.
Rajasthan Royals, on the other hand, have firmly announced themselves as the team to beat this year, currently the only side with a perfect record in the competition. Given how they have performed, we expect the Royals to add another win to their tally in this one. Our Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals prediction is Rajasthan Royals wins.
