As part of the RP Exchange Online Cricket ID Provider, I had the pleasure of witnessing another captivating IPL 2025 encounter at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad, on Sunday, March 23. Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) faced off against Rajasthan Royals (RR), delivering an action-packed afternoon of cricket.
Sunrisers Hyderabad won the toss and elected to bat first, setting a robust target. Opener Abhishek Sharma led from the front with an impressive innings of 72 runs off just 48 balls. He received solid support from Aiden Markram, who scored an elegant 54 from 35 deliveries. Together, they propelled SRH to an imposing total of 186/5 in their 20 overs.
Chasing 187, Rajasthan Royals struggled to gain momentum against disciplined SRH bowling. Despite Sanju Samson’s fighting knock of 55 runs off 40 balls, wickets fell regularly, hindering their chase. Umran Malik was particularly lethal, picking up 4 wickets for just 27 runs, significantly denting RR’s chase.
Ultimately, Rajasthan Royals were bundled out for 142 in 17.4 overs, handing Sunrisers Hyderabad a convincing 44-run victory. This win marked an impressive start for SRH in their IPL 2025 journey, showcasing their strength and strategic depth early in the season.
