23:11 (IST)
FIFTY!
Aiden Markram brings up his 50 from 39 balls but it hasn't been effective enough to change the outcome of the game or even bring it close
23:05 (IST)
GONE!
Sundar looks to continue the big hitting and six getting but finds Hetmyer at long on this time. Brilliant cameo from Sundar to salvage some respect for the SRH and avoid a dreadful NRR from the word go. He goes for 40 and SRH are 133/7
23:00 (IST)
After 18 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 119/6 ( Aiden Markram 44 , Washington Sundar 29)
24 runs and 14 runs from the last two overs and SRH gaining some respectibility with the target well out of sight. Markram on 44 from 36 balls and Sundar on 29 from 10 balls
22:46 (IST)
GONE!
Chahal strikes and that is his 250th T20 wicket. Shepherd walks across, looks to sweep and misses to be bowled. Quicker ball from Chahal there and Shepherd misses the line completely
Shepherd b Chahal 24 (18), SRH 78/6
22:42 (IST)
SIX! SIX!
Back-to-back sixes for SRH now and it comes from Shepherd's bat. First six of the innings is followed by a second as Coulter-Nile is taken apart. Near replicas both sixes - pulled on both and clearing the boundary line on both
22:27 (IST)
GONE!
Abdul Samad comes down the track to Chahal, looks to heave and Parag at deep mid-wicket completes the easy catch. Five down and the nightmare continues for SRH
Samad c Parag b Chahal 4 (6), SRH are 37/5
22:22 (IST)
After 9 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 32/4 ( Aiden Markram 13 , Abdul Samad 2)

22:17 (IST)
GONE!
Yuzvendra Chahal strikes in the very first over. Abhishek Sharma tries to up the ante but doesn't clear the field as he would have liked. Gets too close to the ball, miscues the loft and finds Hetmyer at long-on
Abhishek Sharma c Hetmyer b Chahal 9 (19), SRH 29/4
22:15 (IST)
Full toss from Ashwin and Abhishek Sharma slams it past the bowler. Riyan Parag tries his best to cut it out but fails in the end
22:11 (IST)
Finally a boundary from a SRH batter that looks convincing. Markram pulls a delivery from outside off over the fielder at mid-wicket
22:06 (IST)
After 6 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 14/3 ( Abhishek Sharma 3 , Aiden Markram 4)
At the powerplay mark, SRH are 14/3 and have failed miserably to make the field restrictions count. Williamson, Tripathi and Pooran all are back in the dugout. Markram and Abhishek in the middle
22:04 (IST)
First boundary from the bat for Sunrisers and it comes off Markram's bat. Boult has his hands on the head. Markram pushes with hard hands and the inside edge goes away to deep square leg for a four
22:01 (IST)
GONE!
Nicholas Pooran is gone for a duck! Plumb! Trent Boult looked close to getting a wicket and he finally gets one. Full, angled in, Pooran misses the flick and is caught leg before. Discusses with his partner Abhishek Sharma and decides against reviewing. Wise decision that but this is going dreadfully for the Sunrisers Hyderabad
Pooran lbw Boult 0 (9)
21:56 (IST)
After 4 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 7/2 ( Abhishek Sharma 1 , Nicholas Pooran (W) 0)
Horrendous start for SRH. Kane Williamson and Rahul Tripathi back in the dugout. Runs not flowing for the Hyderabad batters with Prasidh Krishna picking two wickets in two overs. The second over bringing out six dots for a maiden
21:52 (IST)
GONE!
Prasidh Krishna gets his second wicket and that's poor batting from Rahul Tripathi. Short of length, outside off, the ball moves away slightly and Tripathi is beaten for pace and bounce. Samson with the simple take behind
Tripathi 0 (3)
21:50 (IST)
First boundary of the chase comes as leg bye. Veering down the leg stump, Abhishek Sharma gets the thigh on it and the ball goes on towards fine leg
21:44 (IST)
GONE!
Is that gone? Kane Williamson edges it behind. There's no question about that. Dropped by Sanju Samson, Padikkal latches on at first slip. But is that taken on the bounce? Umpires convene and send it upstairs. Third man decides it is taken cleanly. Commentator, however, thinks there's a bounce on it. Prasidh Krishna strikes!
Williamson c Padikkal b Krishna 2 (7)
21:37 (IST)
SRH chase begins
Williamson, Abhishek Sharma open the innings for SRH. Trent Boult with the ball. GO!

BELTING THE BALL!
batting is a violent activity these days #SRHvsRR #IPL2022

21:15 (IST)
Hip-high short ball from Bhuvi now, it is outside off and Hetmyer reads the slower one well. Waits for it and sends it flat to the left of long-on
21:14 (IST)
Short and outside off from Bhuvi, Hetmyer doesn't middle it but has enough power on it to clear the short straight boundary
21:12 (IST)
After 18 overs,Rajasthan Royals 188/4 ( Shimron Hetmyer 15 , Riyan Parag 10)
Rajasthan on course for a 210-ish score. Shimron Hetmyer and Riyan Parag both hitting the ball well and the bowlers have very little purchase from the surface
21:11 (IST)
Misfield from Washington Sundar and that is four more to the RR score. Unlucky for Sundar though, there was a bad bounce as he slid across to cut it out
21:09 (IST)
SIX! Raw power from Hetmyer to thrash this away for a maximum! Attempted yorker, Hetmyer gets down on one knee and takes it low for a six towards long-on
21:07 (IST)
Attempted yorker by T Natarajan, Parag converts it into a low full toss and splits the gap between mid-wicket and long-on
21:05 (IST)
SRH review
Bhuvi beats Riyan Parag and the SRH bowler is convinced there's something on that. A second review for SRH in this over and there's nothing on it. No bat, no pad and it is going over the stumps. SRH lose both their reviews
21:03 (IST)
STAT ALERT
Sanju Samson in the first innings of an IPL season
2020: 74 (32) vs CSK
2021: 119 (63) vs PBKS
2022: 55 (27) vs SRH
21:01 (IST)
GONE!
Sanju Samson departs with Bhuvneshwar Kumar getting his first wicket of the season! Samad takes a smart catch after running across from long-on. Samson has little room on a back of length delivery, looks for the boundary but unable to clear the boundary
Samson c Samad b Bhuvi 55 (28)
20:57 (IST)
SIX, FIFTY FOR SAMSON
Sanju Samson brings up his fifty from 25 balls. Talk about playing a captain's knock. Darted in flat and short by Sundar and it is dispatched with disdain. Pulled over mid-wicket for a six. Samson doesn't even bother checking the outcome, he raises his bat to acknowledge the applause.
20:55 (IST)
Slowed down by Washington Sundar, tossed up on the off stump and this is swiped over mid-wicket for a six
20:52 (IST)
After 15 overs,Rajasthan Royals 148/3 ( Sanju Samson (C) (W) 42 , )
Umran Malik ends his quota of overs with a wicket of Devdutt Padikkal. The leftie beaten for pace by the seamer and that is the end of a brilliant 73-run partnership. SRH needed a wicket, desperately, and Malik provides it
20:51 (IST)
GONE!
Umran Malik has his second wicket and Devutt Padikkal is bowled! Length delivery, Padikkal is beaten for peace. He seemingly tried to steer it down towards third man but is castled instead. End of the allotted overs for Malik (4-0-39-2) who started poorly but finishes with a wicket
Padikkal b Malik 41 (29)
20:47 (IST)
Sanju Samson joins in the boundary-hitting business. Too full, on the pads, and it is whipped away to the mid-wicket boundary
20:46 (IST)
Flurry of boundaries continue from the bat of Devdutt Padikkal. Umran Malik the unlucky bowler this time. Short ball outside off, Padikkal pulls to the mid-wicket fence
20:44 (IST)
Slower one, on the pads, Padikkal waits for it and uses his wrists perfectly to whip it past short fine leg
20:43 (IST)
Two boundaries in a row! Pitched up in the slot and lofted towards long on for a six. Padikkal holds the pose as the ball comfortably clears the rope
20:41 (IST)
Padikkal slaps it and slaps it well to beat the fielder at mid-on. It brings up the fifty partnership from 33 balls
20:35 (IST)
After 12 overs,Rajasthan Royals 114/2 ( Sanju Samson (C) (W) 37 , Devdutt Padikkal 16)
After 12 overs, Rajasthan Royals are 114/2 with Sanju Samson on 37 and Devdutt Padikkal. This partnership up to 39 from 23 balls. Samson the crucial wicket for SRH now
20:34 (IST)
Cracker of a shot! Full length delivery from T Natarajan and Padikkal connects beautifully to send the ball towards the vacant long off boundary
20:31 (IST)
THRASHED AWAY FOR A SIX! T Natarajan comes into the attack, back of a length delivery and Padikkal pulls towards mid-wicket for a six!
20:29 (IST)
Is that a six or a four? Four gestures the RR player in the dugout. Short, there is room and Samson plays it away for a reverse sweep and the ball runs away to the third man rope
20:26 (IST)
Too short from Washington Sundar and that is punished. 65th six of IPL 2022. Just a touch short, outside off and Samson plunders it down the ground for a HUGE six
20:23 (IST)
Harsha Bhogle praises Umran Malik
Umran Malik is so exciting. He has raw pace which can't be learnt. Now it is upto coaches and captains to make him special.
— Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) March 29, 2022
20:22 (IST)
Short and pulled away for a six! Sanju Samson makes the most of poor line from Shepherd. He sends it towards long leg for a six!
20:20 (IST)
After 9 overs,Rajasthan Royals 78/2 ( Sanju Samson (C) (W) 16 , Devdutt Padikkal 2)
Rajasthan Royals move along to 78/2 after nine overs. Sanju Samson has made a bright start and is up to 16 from 10 balls. Devdutt Padikkal is alongside him. Openers Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal back in the dugout
20:15 (IST)
Appeal, given not out, reviewed, GONE!
Umran Malik back into the attack. Pooran and Malik are very confident of a caught behind on Buttler. Umpire Bruce Oxenford is not convinced. Kane Williamson goes upstairs for the review. And there is a spike on UltraEdge. Buttler walks!
Buttler c Pooran b Malik 35 (28)
Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals, Tata IPL 2022, SRH vs RR 5th IPL Match: Rajasthan Royals beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by 61 runs and become the first team to defend a total this season. The eventual margin could have been bigger but for late flourish from Markram and Sundar
Preview: With a number of match-winners at their disposal, Rajasthan Royals will lock horns with a new and refurbished Sunrisers Hyderabad. Both the sides will start their campaign in Pune in an IPL clash on Tuesday.
Rajasthan Royals had a very busy mega auctions and their batting will rotate around captain Sanju Samson as well as Jos Buttler. In the auctions, they also lapped up young Indian players Devdutt Padikkal who can be a match-winner on his day.
Royals have also snapped up power-hitters in Shimron Hetmyer, Rassie Van der Dussen, Jimmy Neesham and Riyan Parag in the middle order and this should give them a lot of depth.
As far as the bowling is concerned, Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal will form a potent spinning combination. They will also be complemented with the likes of Prasidh Krishna, Trent Boult taking up the mantle with the new ball.
Sunrisers Hyderabad, on the other hand, will need all the experience of captain Kane Williamson who is the best batter in the side. Apart from him, his compatriot Glenn Phillips could well slot at the top of the batting order. There are also Nicholas Pooran, Priyam Garg and Rahul Tripathi who could take up the responsibility in the middle order. Abdul Samad, who was retained ahead of the mega auctions, can take up the role in the middle order.
The bowling attack will be led by pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar and he will be given company by Umran Malik. They have also added Marco Jansen, who has been quite good for South Africa over the last six months.
Washington Sundar, is making a comeback along with T Natarajan and as far as the spinners are concerned, they have options in Shreyas Gopal or J Suchith.
