Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: early balance, late SRH surge
The first decade was close. Rajasthan won 2 of 3 in 2013, and every season from 2014 to 2021 that had two matches was shared, apart from 2018, when SRH won both.
The gap opened later. From 7 May 2023 to 25 Apr 2026, SRH won six meetings in a row. That run included a 1-run win in Hyderabad on 2 May 2024 and a 36-run victory at Chepauk in the 2024 Qualifier 2 on 24 May 2024. RR finally ended it on 27 May 2026.
Scoring has climbed sharply. The average first-innings score across all 24 games is 180, but the five highest totals all come from 2025 and 2026, led by SRH’s 286/6 on 23 Mar 2025. RR replied with 242/6 that day and still lost by 44 runs.
