SRH vs RR Live Score, IPL 2023: Chahal's four-for powers Rajasthan to decimate Hyderabad in their IPL 2023 opener
SRH vs RR Live Score, IPL 2023:
Jose Buttler, Yashasvi Jaiswal and skipper Sanju Samson scored a half-century each as Rajasthan Royals scored 203/5 against hosts Royal Challengers Bangalore at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Sunday. In reply, Yuzvendra Chahal took four wickets while Trent Boult took two wickets as Rajasthan Royals beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by 72 runs.
From Bangalore, Fazalhaq Farooqi and T Natarajan took two wickets each, while Umran Malik picked one wicket.
The Royals, under the captaincy of Sanju Samson, has some top-class performers with both the purple cap (highest wicket-taker) and orange cap (highest run-getter) being cornered by their players -- Yuzvendra Chahal and Jos Buttler -- in IPL 2022.
Over the years, the Royals have consolidated the reputation of being gritty rivals who do not surrender an inch of their territory.
Rajasthan have some top-ranked Indian spinners in Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin alongside Australian tweaker Adam Zampa.
It makes the 2008 IPL winners as one of the best spin-bowling attack in the league.
Sunrisers Hyderabad's batting will have to face the wily leg-spinner Chahal, who was the highest wicket-take in IPL 2022 with 27 scalps.
Ashwin, on the other hand, is high on his performance in the recent Border-Gavaskar Test series, where he grabbed 25 wickets in eight innings.
While they have one of the best spin bowling attacks in the tournmanet, Royals' batting, led by Buttler, can give any franchise a complex, given the way the England stalwart decimated every rival bowling attack last year to accumulate 863 runs.
Royals batting is further strengthened by England's top-order batter Joe Root, skipper Samson and pinch-hitters Shimron Hetmyer and Jason Holder.
SRH, on the other hand, still look like a side trying to find their feet after debacles in the two previous editions of the IPL. While they were eighth and last in 2021, IPL 2022 wasn't much different for it as the side again finished eighth among 10 teams under new skipper Kane Williamson.
This year, South African opener Aiden Markram has been given the captaincy role, though India pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar will lead the side against the Royals as the designated captain will arrive on April 3 after playing a two-match ODI series against the Netherlands.
SRH's strength lies in their pace bowling line-up comprising Umran Malik, Bhuvneshwar and South African pacer Marco Jansen, though the latter will also not be available for the opening match.

This was a start Sunrisers Hyderabad wouldn't have expected. They are two wickets down after the first score without a single run being scored. Trent Boult is their wrecker-in-chief.

Fazalhaq is delivering the last over of Rajasthan's innings. Let's see if Rajasthan complete their 200 runs. Just four runs on the first four balls. Very uncharacteristic of Hetmyer. But anything can happen till he has the strike. And, he hits a four on the fifth ball as Rajatshan complete their 200 runs. Rajasthan finish the innings at 203/5 in 20 overs.
