Rajasthan Royals innings

[edit]

Batting first, the Rajasthan Royals had Indian batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal and England batsman Jos Buttler opened the innings. The two got off to relatively slow start with Jaiswal taking eight deliveries to get off the mark while Butler ended the power play scoring 10 runs from the 14 balls that he faced. Jaiswal was the first to depart when he was dismissed of the last ball of the fourth over, caught at deep square leg by Sai Kishore off the bowling of Yash Dayal having scored 22 runs from 16 balls. Captain Sanju Samson attempted to accelerate the scoring two boundaries off the very first three deliveries before being out caught by Kishore at backward point off the bowling of Hardik Pandya, with the score reading 60 for the loss of two wickets from 8.2 overs. Pandya continued to keep the pressure forcing incoming batsman Devdutt Padikkal to remain scoreless against him across seven deliveries. Padikkal eventually was out to Rashid Khan, caught again at backward point. Butler followed by losing his wicket to Pandya, caught by the wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha. Pandya followed it up with the wicket of Shimron Hetmyer, catching off his own bowling, with the West Indian being out for 11 from 12 deliveries. Royals ended their 20 overs scoring 130 runs for the loss of 9 wickets. Pandya was the pick of the bowlers having taken 3 wickets while conceding 17 runs in his four overs. Kishore claimed two wickets in the two overs that he bowled while conceding 20 runs, taking the wickets of Ravichandran Ashwin and Trent Boult.[25][26][3]

Indian batsmen Wriddhiman Saha and Shubman Gill opened the innings for the Titans. The pair was broken early in the second over when Saha was out bowled by pacer Prasidh Krishna having scored 5 runs from 7 balls. New Zealand fast bowler Trent followed it up by dismissing Australian batsman Matthew Wade, out caught by Riyan Parag. The score was 23 runs for the loss of two wickets, bringing the captain Pandya to the crease. Pandya and Gill put on a healthy partnership of 63 runs effectively ensuring that Titans were out of a spot of bother. Pandya was out in the 14th over caught by Jaiswal off the bowling of Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal. Gill went on to see the team through by scoring 45 runs from 43 balls. South African batsman David Miller chipped in scoring 32 runs from 19 deliveries ensuring that the Titans scored 133 runs for the loss of 3 wickets, winning the match by 7 wickets with 11 deliveries to spare.
