Bhuvneshwar Kumar-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will play their opening game of IPL 2023 against Sanju Samson's Rajasthan Royals (RR). This is SRH's first home match of the season which will be played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. For the uninitiated, SRH's new captain is missing this match. The reason for his unavailabity is that South Africa batter is currently playing in the ODIs vs Netherlands. Markram is set to join SRH camp ahead of their April 7 encounter vs Lucknow Super Giants. SRH pin hopes on stand-in skipper Bhuvneshwar to get the team off to a good start in IPL 2023.

On the other hand, RR will be at their full strength. Some of the key players of the team are Samson, Jos Buttler, Yuzvendra Chahal and R Ashwin. Watch out for young Riyan Parag. RR has backed this youngster from Assam for four seasons now but the all-rounder is yet to play to his full potential and hopefully, in 2023 season, Parag will be able to come back to his best.


SRH have a new opener in form of Mayank Agarwal. The former Punjab Kings captain would like to prove a point with the bat after he was sacked from all India squads. Adil Rashid and Afghanistan pacer Fazalhaq Farooqi are great additions to the squad as well.
