SRH vs RCB toss prediction FAQ

What did the toss winner choose in SRH vs RCB?
Sunrisers Hyderabad chose to bat first. Our pre-toss call was field first — the captain went the other way.
How does the toss affect the SRH vs RCB match odds?
Meaningfully. Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium favours chasing (teams batting second win 57% here), so our model shifts the match win probability by about 5 percentage points depending on which side ends up chasing — with evening dew adding to the chase advantage under lights. A pre-toss match price averages both branches, so the toss result itself can create or kill value on the match market.
