The Sunrisers were the ones to push 300 on numerous times, getting threateningly close last season. Will they do it this time? Nitish Kumar Reddy has matured as a batter and the addition of Ishan Kishan will give more comfort to Heinrich Klaasen in the middle-order who can now launch at an even more suitable position. Their bowling looks promising as well. Pat Cummins, though not yet a sure starter with his injury along with Mohammad Shami form a strong pace attack with Harshal Patel, Rahul Chahar and Adam Zampa providing good support too.

The Rajasthan Royals start with a new captain. Riayn Parag leads in the absence of Sanju Samson who plays as a batter and impact sub with injury. They retained a young core letting go of the likes of Jos Buttler, Yuzvendra Chahal, Trent Boult and Ravichandran Ashwin, leaving them with a lot to prove and a lot to build after a period where they consolidated well with an experienced core.
