IPL 2022 | RR vs SRH - Fantasy Tips

Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will face off against each other in this enthralling encounter of IPL 2022. Let's try which of the players in the two squads can give us profitable returns in the Fantasy leagues.

Untamed: The group or category of players who will justify their high credit cost on most days.

Kane Williamson: The SRH skipper will also be their most significant asset in the batting department. In IPL, Williamson has an average of 40.11 and a strike rate of 131.27. This shows that the Kiwi star is a consistent scorer. So most of the days, one can expect significant returns from him in the fantasy leagues.

Jos Buttler: In the Indian T20 league, Buttler has a strike rate of 150 and an average of 35. He is a quick and consistent run-scorer, making him an essential pick for any league. On average, the Englishman would bag 34 fantasy points per game, making him a must pick for fantasy players.

Trent Boult: The Kiwi pace star is an excellent asset for any team with the new ball in hand. In the edition of IPL, Boult had an average of 18 and a strike rate of 13.7. This data show how potent he was with the ball. This year's pitches offer a great deal of swing upfront that makes Boult a must pick for both small and grand leagues.

Shilly Shally: This is a category of players you cannot trust blindly but can definitely back them from taking risks.

Nicholas Pooran: Pooran bats with a strike rate of 155 in the IPL. But his average of 22.4 speaks of his inconsistency. He averages 29 fantasy points per game. Thus, he is not a guy you can trust every day but you can definitely take a risk on him on certain days.

Sanju Samson: Samson's potential is praised by all, but it has been seen often that he gives away some outstanding starts playing a rash shot. Most of the days, he converts the starts, but on some days, he disappoints fans by giving his wicket away. His average of 29 in IPL is evidence of this fact. So he should be in a team but making him a captain or vice-captain can go either way.

Shimron Hetmyer: West Indians being a part of the Shilly Shally group is becoming creepily common. But Hetmyer is a perfect representative of the category. His strike rate of 151 in IPL shows that he can be a match-winner. But his average of 25 proves the fact that he lacks consistency.

Unhailed: These players will eat up fewer credits and give better returns.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar: He would have been in the untamed group a year or two earlier. But injuries have kept him away from the action for a long period of time. Nevertheless, his average of 22 fantasy points per game places him in the unhailed group.

Devdutt Padikkal: His show with the bat for RCB in the previous two seasons has put him in the category of consistent point fetchers. He has an average of 38 fantasy points per game and would be available for relatively lower credit points.

Yuzvendra Chahal: Yuzi Chahal has an uncanny knack for picking wickets. His average fantasy point return per game is 32. This makes him a valuable and a must pick.

Stealthy Warriors: They are players who are yet to perform big in the IPL.

Aiden Markram: In T20Is, he averages nearly 40 and scores at a strike rate of almost 147. So, he has already proved himself in the international arena. He has yet to go big in the IPL, but his records suggest he will be a valuable pick for fantasy players.

Umran Malik: Umran Malik impressed everybody last season with his pace. He got only two chances the previous year. This year he is expected to be a regular in the first eleven. So, he can be a dark horse for fantasy players as many might not be backing him.

Abdul Samad: In his short IPL career, he has shown that he can definitely hit it big. But the concern with him at present is consistency. He has a strike rate of 150 plus but an average of just 15, proving the fact. But experts rate him highly on potential.

Yashasvi Jaiswal: Jaiswal has already shown that he has a lot of potential. But he has not been consistent chances due to the presence of stars in the squad. However, the franchise has backed him ahead of the mega-auctions by retaining him, which indicates him being a regular in the XI. Hence, fantasy players could be picking him. 

Imposters: Players who will be a negative influence on a team.

Jagadeesh Suchith: In the toughest twenty, Suchith has an economy rate of 8.88 bowling in the middle overs. He will be the weak link in SRH bowling if and when he plays. Fantasy players should try and avoid him as he could potentially lose you points. 

Prasidh Krishna: In death overs, he gives away runs at a rate of even more than nine runs per over. In general, his economy is 8.87. He might pick up one or two wickets, but he will leak runs being a very costly option for fantasy players.

Hot Picks: Kane Williamson, Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson, Trent Boult

Risky Picks: Nicholas Pooran, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Shimron Hetmyer
