Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will square off in the 52nd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, scheduled at Sawai Mansingh Stadium on May 7.

With five victories in 10 games, Rajasthan Royals are currently at fourth position on the points table. On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad are reeling at the bottom, having won just three of their nine matches.

Meanwhile, let us list the player battles which might have a say in deciding the result of the clash.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar vs Jos Buttler 

Bhuvneshwar Kumar might pile up Jos Buttler's misery. The Englishman is in the midst of a mediocre IPL season by his standards.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar vs Jos Buttler (T20Is + T20s): 82 balls, 88 runs, 5 dismissals

Yuzvendra Chahal vs Mayank Agarwal 

Mayank Agarwal, who already has fared poorly in IPL 2023, could be staring at another failure as Yuzvendra Chahal has a great possibility of trumping the former.

Yuzvendra Chahal vs Mayank Agarwal in T20s: 51 balls, 75 runs, 7 dismissals, Average - 10.7, Strike-rate - 147.1 

Trent Boult vs Rahul Tripathi 

Rahul Tripathi has gone without scoring runs in the ongoing IPL season so far. He may extend his lean patch as he could be forced to face Trent Boult with the new ball.

Trent Boult vs Rahul Tripathi in T20s: 17 balls, 14 runs, 2 dismissals, Average - 7, Strike-rate - 82.4 

Mayank Markande vs Sanju Samson 

RR skipper Sanju Samson is not having the best of IPLs by any means. So that Samson does not turn the fortunes, SRH can use Mayank Markande against him.

Sanju Samson vs right-arm leg-spinners in T20s: 496 balls, 646 runs, 22 dismissals, Average - 29.4, Strike-rate - 130.2 

Yashasvi Jaiswal vs Mayank Markande 

A good player of spin, Yashasvi Jaiswal, can counter Mayank Markande. However, he has been dismissed four times by a leggie in T20 cricket.

Yashasvi Jaiswal vs right-arm leg-spinners in T20s: 94 balls, 135 runs, 4 dismissals, Average - 33.8, Strike-rate - 143.6
