Preview
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will lock horns in Match 3 of the Dream11 IPL in Dubai. Both the teams have a balanced IPL squad leading into their maiden IPL fixture in 2020. Before we consider at SRH vs RCB Dream11 Match Prediction, here's a brief preview to what SRH and RCB offer in IPL 2020.
Sunrisers Hyderabad will be led by David Warner in IPL 2020. The Orange Army has a strong core group of overseas players. However, they will face a challenge to pick a decent Indian middle-order in their playing XI against RCB.
On the other hand, the Virat Kohli-led side will have a task cut-out in order to kickstart their IPL campaign with a win. RCB didn't have a great season in 2020, and will certainly look to improve their previous IPL record against Hyderabad. In 2020, Bangalore has most bases covered with experienced players in each department.

What to expect – Ground and Pitch Conditions?
In the DC vs KXIP match at Dubai, the pitch had an even covering of grass. The new ball offered some assistance for the fast bowlers. Otherwise, it was a decent pitch for batting despite some early breakthroughs for Delhi in the first innings. Teams winning the toss would want to bowl first considering the dew factor later in the evening.

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)
RCB fans would feel rather confident with the kind of RCB squad in IPL 2020.
