Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru IPL Match Today: The last time Sunrisers Hyderabad faced off against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, the SRH batters treated the RCB bowlers like cannon fodder, hammering 287 runs: the highest IPL score in history.
The IPL 2024 game on Thursday promises similar fireworks as Hyderabad — who are ranked No 3 in the points table after playing seven games and racking up 10 points, host bottom-of-the-pile Bengaluru, who have two points from eight matches. Bengaluru’s play-off hopes are all but extinguished after the loss to Kolkata Knight Riders last Sunday.
