Rajasthan Royals (RR) will face Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in the ninth match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 at Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Sunday (September 27).
Royals have played one game against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) which they won by 16 runs. KXIP, on the other hand, have played two matches with one win and one loss.
Pitch and weather report
Bowlers will have to be more careful as the small boundaries in Sharjah will assist the batsmen. The team winning the toss will most likely choose to bat first to set up a massive total.
The conditions will not be too warm because of the hazy moonlight. The level of humidity, however, will be near 79%.
