Pitch Report

Pitch Report with Pommie Mbangwa and Michael Clarke: It's runs galore. Dimensions are 63m leg-side, 70m on the other side. There's a pocket which is 77m. 205 is the average score on this track. It's a batting paradise, another belter and has been for a long period of time. Both ends looks dry, there's a tiny bit of grass in the middle of the wicket. It's probably going to be a two paced. If you bat first, you should be looking to go past 200. The pitch isn't going to deteriorate. Bowlers should think about taking the pace off more often.

Commentary

7:51 pm local time (7:51 pm IST): So, that is all we have from Hyderabad from now! You can switch over to all the action taking place in Chennai right now, by clicking on this link. This is the pair of Pradeep and Bidipto taking your leave. Keep following Sportskeeda!

Ishan Kishan (Player of the Match, 106* off 47 balls): The nervousness was there! But the captain and the coach gave me the freedom to express myself. That always helps. I've had a lot of time in between, so I've worked hard on my game. This is the kind of surface that you want to carry with you everywhere! But the kind of start Abhishek and Travis gives is always helpful for the middle-order. Pat Cummins knows what to bring out of the rest of the team and so, lets players like me go about my work in the best way possible.

Pat Cummins [Sunrisers Hyderabad captain]: I wouldn't want to be bowling to our boys! It's quite scary how easily they score 280! You're going to go for runs here, but when you have such a big score, a quiet over here and there changes the game. Ishan Kishan today was incredible. We've had the core group in place, obviously lost a couple of players, but I think the preparation has been amazing! The coaching staff has been here for a few weeks now and worked a lot with us.

Green Dot Balls of the Match award goes to Tushar Deshpande!

Ishan Kishan wins the On-The-Go Fours of the Match award!

Ishan Kishan wins the Super Sixes of the Match award!

Ishan Kishan is the Fantasy King of the Match!

Shubham Dubey is the Super Striker of the Match!

7:44 pm local time (7:44 pm IST): It's time now for the post-match presentation!

Harshal Patel [Sunrisers Hyderabad]: Pretty happy with it, I felt we were better with the execution barring a few overs. Whatever we've planned in the meeting, we were able to execute on the field with 280 plus on the board. The coaches don't believe in too much talking, the initial chat was on how we can be defensive and how we can compliment our batting line-up. There's a fine line to be honest, it all depends on the context of the game. Will need to bowl more conventionally, whenever you put 270 on the board, you got to be defensive and let the opposition to more work. I don't remember any ground being easy in the IPL. The wickets are flat, grounds are small, the mindsets of the batters have changed significantly, you have to be on top of your execution as a bowler.

Riyan Parag [Rajasthan Royals captain]: It was tough, just like I expected. Credit to SRH the way they batted, but we could've executed our plans better but we need to go back to drawing board and see what can be made better. Collectively we took the decision, it was the right decision, we didn't execute the plans the way we wanted to. We could've restricted them a little lesser, 220 or 240 would've been a good score to chase. Some of the batters looked great, Sanju, Jurel batted well. Lot of key positives to take from this game. Whether it's a win or loss, you need to take learnings and move on.

7:30 pm local time (7:30 pm IST): Sunrisers Hyderabad win by 44 runs!

Ishan Kishan 106* (47) | Harshal Patel - 2/34 (4)
Dhruv Jurel 70 (35) | Tushar Deshpande - 3/44 (4)

A run chase of over 285 runs is always going to be tough for any team, no matter how good the wicket is. It did stay like that, but Rajasthan Royals gave a good account of themselves with the bat.

Scoring over 240 runs in 20 overs with 6 wickets lost is a pretty decent effort. So, from the batting side of things, the team in pink can take a lot of heart from this performance in the second innings. Had they restricted the first innings score to under 220, it could have been a different story altogether.

The batting line-up required one big hundred in there, but that did not come. But there were some good contributions along the way. Shubham Dubey's 11-ball unbeaten 34 was special! Dhruv Jurel's classy batting was eye-catching too! Of course, Sanju Samson found himself among the runs, once again, to begin an IPL season for the Royals.

Harshal Patel was the only bowler to go at less than 9 RPO and take a couple of wickets. But the rest went the journey. Catching on the whole was average from Sunrisers Hyderabad. However, the captaincy from Pat Cummins was quite calming on his players. He did not drift too much and kept things as simple as he could.

On the whole, it was the first innings batting effort from SRH that stole the show and took the game away from RR. But it does seem as though the pitch in Hyderabad will remain a batting beauty, all be it that the ball may turn more than expected, along the way!

19.6 Harshal Patel to Jofra Archer, SRH KICK OFF THEIR CAMPAIGN WITH A WIN! SRH bowlers did held their nerve in the end, it's an emphatic nevertheless. Dips a full delivery on the stumps, Archer drilled it towards long-on for a single.

Ishan Kishan is seen lying near the boundary with an ice pack on his left knee. That might be concerning for SRH.

19.5 Harshal Patel to Shimron Hetmyer, OUT! MILES UP IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Manohar holds on to it. Short outside the off-stump, Hetmyer goes for the pull and top edged it straight up. Manohar runs in from long-off and pouches it safely.

That is a shot of high quality!

19.4 Harshal Patel to Shimron Hetmyer, SIX! BANG! Short outside the off-stump, Hetmyer swatted it powerfully, straight down the ground for a maximum.
