Commentary
Rajasthan Royals defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by a massive 72-run margin to kick off their IPL 2023 campaign on a confident note.
The fourth match of the IPL 2023 was played at Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad turned out to be a dull encounter as the home team failed to put up a fight.
Put in to bat first, Royals - who were the runners-up of IPL 2022 - posted a mammoth 203/5 in 20 overs, courtesy three fifties from their top-three.
Jos Buttler (54 off 22), Yashasvi Jaiswal (54 off 37) and captain Sanju Samson (55 off 32) laid a solid foundation for the Royals. The Men in Pink finished on a high as the game saw the first team to breach the 200-run mark in the competition.
SRH speedster Umran Malik once again impressed with his sheer pace and demolished the stumps of Devdutt Padikkal with a 150 kmph screamer.
Chasing a big total, SRH lost two wickets in the first over when Trent Boult dismissed Abhishek Sharma (0) and Rahul Tripathi (0).
Harry Brook and Glenn Philips - who made their debuts for SRH - failed to make an impression in the game.
After Boult, it was the turn of Yuzvendra Chahal to shine as the leg-spinner - who was the Purple Cap winner of IPL 2023 - returned with a four-for.
SRH could muster only 131 for the loss of 8 wickets in the run chase and lost the game by 72 runs.
Navdeep Saini to Abdul Samad. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, missed for no runs, fielded by Samson. That's the end of this match. Rajasthan Royals win this match comfortably by 72 runs. Credit to Rajasthan bowlers as they managed to pick wickets at regular intervals. Yuzvendra Chahal is the star performer, bagging four crucial wickets. Jos Buttler is the Player of the Match for his outstanding batting performance. Cheers.
