SRH vs RR Dream11 Prediction: Dream11 Team Today, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report, Injury Update - IPL 2026, Eliminator

The IPL 2026 Eliminator is expected to be a thrilling contest as Sunrisers Hyderabad take on Rajasthan Royals in a knockout encounter at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in New Chandigarh. Hyderabad head into the match after producing one of the most destructive batting performances of the season against Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

SRH hammered 255 runs on the board through attacking knocks from Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Heinrich Klaasen before their bowlers, led by Eshan Malinga, ensured RCB fell well short in the chase. Rajasthan Royals also arrive with momentum after overcoming the Mumbai Indians in a crucial league-stage clash to secure their playoff berth.

RR delivered a balanced performance to seal an impressive 30-run victory. The Royals will, however, be aware of SRH’s dominance in their previous meeting earlier this season, where Hyderabad outclassed them by 57 runs after posting 216/6, courtesy of Ishan Kishan’s explosive 91 off just 44 deliveries.

Both teams have some of the most dangerous batsmen in IPL. The top order of both these teams will be crucial for fantasy combinations and should be included in the SRH vs RR Dream11 team prediction.
