The first innings of the match ends with the Sunrisers Hyderabad posting a total of 158 runs at the loss of 4 wickets after 20 overs.
Manish Pandey and captain David Warner both had a good partnership playing vital individual knocks to ensure that the SRH innings stayed on track on a very slow pitch in Dubai. They scored 54 runs in 44 balls and 48 runs in 38 balls respectively. Kane Williamson played a decent cameo at the end scoring 22 runs in just 12 balls ensuring that Hyderabad go past the 150 run mark.
All the Rajasthan bowlers were pretty economical on a slowish pitch with Jofra Archer, Jaydev Unadkat and young Kartik Tyagi picking up a wicket each followed by a run-out on the last ball of the innings. Ben Stokes bowled a single over on his return to the IPL.
RR have a pretty solid top order batting and would be confident of chasing down the total.
