IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Rajasthan Royals secured a spot in Qualifier 2 of IPL 2024 with a sensational win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Eliminator. Led by Sanju Samson, the team is geared up to face Sunrisers Hyderabad at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
Sunrisers Hyderabad, coming off a demoralizing eight-wicket loss to Kolkata Knight Riders, are eager to rebound and secure a spot in the final.
The teams previously clashed in the league stage, with Hyderabad narrowly edging out Rajasthan by just one run. Despite the setback, Rajasthan faced a losing streak of four matches before bouncing back with a victory against Bengaluru. The return of Shimron Hetmyer to the playing XI provides a significant boost, particularly in the absence of Jos Buttler, who is on international duty with England.
Here are all the details of IPL 2024 qualifier 2 that will played between SRH and RR.

The rule set in place to decide who shall be deemed the winner in case of the Qualifier being washed out is that the team with the most points in the IPL points table shall be deemed victorious and shall qualify for the IPL Final.
This means that in our case now, the automatic winner, if the game is washed out, shall be SRH, who finished the group stage with 17 points, the same as RR who also claimed the same number of points.
But, due to their better Net Run Rate, SRH¡¯s being +0.414 and RR¡¯s being +0.273, Sunrisers Hyderabad will be deemed as the automatic winner and will once again be poised to take on KKR in a rematch of Qualifier 1, during the final as well.
