IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Highlights: Sunrisers Hyderabad have reached the IPL final for a third time after a comprehensive 36-run win over Rajasthan Royals in Qualifier 2. SRH were restricted to a score of 175/9 but a masterful bowling performance led by spinners Shahbaz Ahmed and Abhishek Sharma meant that RR could only score 139/7. SRH face Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL 2024 final on Sunday in Ahmedabad. They are chasing their second IPL title, the first since 2016....Read More

RR captain Sanju Samson earlier won the toss and chose to bowl first against the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the second qualifier of the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL). Trent Boult dismissed Abhishek Sharma off last ball of the very first over and he picked up two more wickets in his next. SRH kept their strike rate up and had scored over 60 runs in the powerplay, largely thanks to Rahul Tripathi, but they also lost three wickets in that period. Heinrich Klaasen and Travis Head put up a partnership of 42 runs off 30 balls but the latter fell to Sandeep Sharma in the 10th over just as the stand was starting to look dangerous.

RR kept chipping away at the SRH batting lineup leading to their strike rate finally beginning to stall towards the start of the death overs. Heinrich Klaasen and Shahbaz Ahmed then powered a bit of a rearguard act with a partnership of 43 runs in 25 balls. Klaasen scored 50 in 34 balls but was cleaned up by the brilliant Sandeep Sharma first ball of the 19th over.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: And then there were two

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: The cities of Kolkata and Hyderabad are chasing their third titles. But KKR while KKR are also chasing their third, SRH will be chasing their second. Pat Cummins, meanwhile, is chasing his millionth trophy in the last 4 years. He has won the World Test Championship, retained the Ashes in England and won the 2023 World Cup as well. Now he looks set to lead SRH to the IPL title. But standing in his way are a formidable KKR though. It is quite fitting that these two sides are facing each other in the final, with RR making it to the second qualifier as well. These have been the three best sides of the season and the stronger two of them now fight it out for the ultimate prize. That will be on Sunday 7.30pm, do join us for the ride. Ciao!

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Impact Player Shahbaz Ahmed is the player of the match

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Has there ever been a better Impact substitution than this one?

“The captain and coach told me depending on the situation we will use you, my role was to bat lower down the order and they said if we collapse we will send you. When I was batting, I felt that this wicket has something and the way Avesh and Sandeep bowled showed. I'm feeling proud at having got the Man of the Match in such a game, the atmosphere is quite relaxed in the camp. We will celebrate only after winning the final, tonight we will just relax.”

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Pat Cummins talks

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: “The boys have been fantastic all season. There's a great vibe in the squad as you can see and the final was the goal at the start of the season and we made it. We knew our strength was our batting and we wouldn't underestimate the experience we have in this squad, it's a dream having Bhuvi, Nattu and Unadkat, makes my job easy. [on whose decision it was to bring Shahbaz as impact player] Dan Vettori, left-arm orthodox and wanted as many left-arm orthodox as possible. [on Abhishek's bowling] That was a surprise, tried to stick one out of him with a couple of right-handers and he bowled beautifully and those two won it with their bowling in the middle overs. 170 was a tough chase and had we got a couple of wickets we knew we had a chance. I will never pretend to work out the pitch and conditions ever, different every week. It is for the whole franchise, probably 60 or 70 of them who put their heart and soul into this and hopefully one more left.”

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Sanju Samson reacts to the loss

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: “It was a big game. I am really proud of the way we bowled in the first innings. We were found short of options in the middle overs against their spin, that's where we lost the game. It's very hard to guess actually when we are expecting some dew or when we are not. The wicket started behaving differently in the second innings, the ball started turning a bit, they used that advantage really well. They bowled their spin in the middle overs against our right-handed batsmen, that's where they were one-up against us. Against their left-arm spin, when the ball was stopping, we could have tried a bit more reverse-sweep or maybe use of the crease a bit more. They also bowled really well. We have had some brilliant games not only this season but from the last three years, it has been a great project for our franchise. We have found some really great talent for the country. Riyan Parag, Dhruv Jurel and a lot of them are looking really exciting not only for RR but definitely for the Indian cricket team. We have had some great seasons from the last three years. (On Sandeep Sharma) I am really happy for him. By not being picked in the auctions and coming back as a replacement. the way he bowled, he has definitely delivered. If we look at the numbers, Sandeep Sharma in the last two years, he will be the next guy after Bumrah. He has done a great job. (Final) The condition suits both of them, so let's see how they come back again in the powerplay. SRH batsmen are very interesting, they can definitely take the game away. KKR also will be confident, they look very exciting. It'll be a great game, that's what IPL has been giving us for the last 16 years.”

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: THERE YOU HAVE IT! SRH WILL PLAY KKR FOR THE IPL TITLE ON SUNDAY! They beat RR by 36 runs

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Jurel finishes unbeaten on 56 off 35 and RR sputter to a total of 139/7 in 20 overs. SRH have reached the IPL final for a third time. If you count the Deccan Chargers, this would be the fourth time that the city of Hyderabad would be represented in the IPL final. Exceptional performance today from SRH, RR never really looked to be in control at any point throughout their innings.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: 10 runs in the 19th over, the game is in the bag for SRH

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: RR need 42 to win from the last over. Unless we see something utterly beyond all cricketing logic in the 20th over, SRH have won this match and they will meet KKR once again in the final on Sunday. Dhruv Jurel has scored a gritty fifty but it won't amount to much. He is on 51 off 29 balls, Trent Boult at the other end on none off three.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: RR need 53 to win off the last 3 overs

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Jurel keeping RR in the fight here. Pat Cummins bowls the 17th, Powell gets off strike first ball and then Jurel tries hittting the second ball over deep midwicket. Tripathi is there though and he jumps back on the boundary line and throws the ball back in while in the air. Or it seemed as if he had done that succesfully in real time. Replays showed that he touched the rope before releasing the ball and so it is a six for Jurel. Three singles off the last three balls, Jurel in 41 off 22, Powell on six off 10.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Shahbaz bowls out in the 15th over, Jurel reverse sweeps the fifth ball to send it past what was originally the point fielder for a four. And then he makes room and goes inside out over cover for another four. Jurel is on 24 off 13, Powell at the other end on two off six. RR need 74 to win off 30. Is there life yet in this match?

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Hetmyer is the next man to fall to spin. Good length around off from Abhishek for the fourth ball of the 14th. It straightens after pitching, Hetmyer looks to play a back-foot punch and is completely befuddled. The off stump is hit.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: First boundary in nearly six overs for RR. Aiden Markram bowl the 13th, Cummins decides that spin is the way to go. He gives just four off five balls and then Jurel dances down the track and hits the last ball over deep midwicket for six. RR need 86 to win from 42 balls.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: GONE! Shahbaz gets his 3rd, RR crumbling!

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: That is a very good coach by Klaasen behind the wicket, exactly the kind that Samson had earlier dropped. No runs and two wickets in the 12th over thus far, 26 balls since the last boundary, SRH have come to a grinding halt. Ashwin was utterly unable to pick the spin last two balls, this time he gets bat on it and is caught behind.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: OUT! Riyan Parag falls trying to break free

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Just 3 runs in the 10th over from Shahbaz, RR not able to buy runs at the moment. Parag is on five off eight, Dhruv Jurel on three off four. They need 103 to win off 60 balls now.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Jaiswal mistimes the fifth ball of the eighth to long-off! Shahbaz gives it some flight and Jaiswal takes the bait. However, it wasn't pitched up. That is a huge wicket, Jaiswal was strating too look very dangerous indeed.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Bhuvneshwar returns with a change of ends and gets flat-batted over long on first ball by Jaiswal for a six. Jaiswal then smashes the second ball straight back down the ground for a four. Jaiswal then sets off for a single next ball after a misfield at long off but Samson sends him back despite him being halfway down the ground. The fact that he still had enough time to get back shows that the single was very much on. Jaiswal then hits back to back fours off the fifth and sixth balls and then a single last ball keeps him on strike. RR have scored far lesser runs than SRH did in the powerplay but they have lost just one wicket, while SRH had lost three.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Kohler-Cadmore has struggled with everything thus far. He has not had the best time with the heat and humidity and Cummins and Bhuvi have made him feel the discomfort even more. Cummins ends the fourth over with a full ball on off, wobbled seam. Kohler-Cadmore goes for a hail mary over off side, the ball flies high into the Chennai sky and Tripathi catches it at point.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: There is some issue with ball-tracking and that little piece of technology is not working at the moment. This means that the Decision Review System as a whole is unavailable.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Good news for RR is that they are yet to lose a wicket in the first three overs. The bad news is that they have scored just 19 runs in it, yikes. Cummins gives just five runs in the second over, Bhuvi six in the third. Jaiswal gets a four off the fourth ball of the third over and that is the only boundary thus far apart from the six that he hit off the last ball of the first over.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: SRH 175/9 in 20 overs

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Well this was a good score until the start of this season, when teams led by SRH themselves changed the idea of what a good T20 score looks like. By the new definition, this might just be below par. An excellent last over from Avesh. Just one run came in the first three balls thanks to a wide delivery and Shahbaz fell off the third delivery as well. Unadkat somehow got a four over short fine leg off the fourth and then a single off the fifth. Unadkat is then run out off the last ball which means the over ended with a dot. Just six runs and two wickets off the 20th.

May 24, 2024 9:15 PM IST

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Avesh to bowl the last over

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: SRH have scored just 42 runs in the last five overs and lost two wickets, this has been a masterclass in T20 bowling from RR. Avesh Khan has taken two wickets thus far, can he add to that. SRH's tail enders can all bat, they have Cummins out there now with Shahbaz and they still have Jaydev Unadkat and Bhuvneshwar Kumar left.

Sandeep surprises everyone in the world with a 121.1kph yorker first ball of the 19th, Klaasen misses it entirely and the stumps behind him are a mess. That is a body blow for SRH.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: What an over from Sandeep Sharma, just three runs and a huge wicket. Slow bouncer to finish off the 10th over, Head tries to steer it over the off side but screams in anger as soon as the ball leaves his bat. Short third man has the easiest catch to take.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: Tripathi wonderfully summing up SRH's philosophy here. Head gets off strike first ball once again against Ashwin, and then Tripathi hits the second ball, full around off, over mid-off for a four. Ashwin goes flatter and quicker third ball, Tripathi places it fine of short third oh, so expertly. Ashwin then sends in a full toss fourth ball and Tripathi sweeps it over backward square leg for a six. He is then deceived by the carrom ball last ball, Samson fails to collect it. That is a stumping chance missed. The batters run a single after which the umpires call it a run, which means that Samson dropped Tripathi there.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: The pitch report

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: The humidity has been quite severe in Chennai. Pitch number 7 is being used, it has never been used at all this season. 61 metres and 72 metres square boundaries - tactically, where the offspiner bowls and where the legspinner bowls come into play. Down the ground - 77 metres - a lot of muscle needed. It looks dark compared to some of the other pitches on the square. This surface is extremely hard. It's black clay, that means it'll hold together really well. Whatever moisture has been put into the surface, it's really going to mesh it all together. I expect a bit of bounce for the seamers, not a lot of turn for the spinners. The only defence for the spinners will be they've got that huge boundary to hit up against. In terms of runs, it's a 175-180 type wicket. We know what Sunrisers Hyderabad's blueprint is - it's to score massive. If you do win the toss, Sunrisers will have a bat, put a big load of pressure on the Royals and let's see how they go. The groundsman says there won't be any dew.

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: The last game between these two sides…

IPL 2024, SRH vs RR Live Score Qualifier 2, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals: … is a legitimate contender for match of the season. On a tricky pitch Head scored a rather uncharacteristically slow 58 off 44 balls. His 96-run stand off 57 balls with Nitish Kumar Reddy and the latter's unbeaten 70-run stand off 32 balls with Heinrich Klaasen helped SRH set a score of 201/3. Reddy scored 76 in 42 balls. RR were off to a horrendous start in the chase with Bhuvneshwar Kumar dismiss Jos Buttler and Sanju Samson for ducks in the first over. The tables were almost completely on SRH after that though, with Yashasvi Jaiswal and Riyan Parag putting up a 134-run stand for the third wicket that came in just 78 balls and it looked like RR are set to complete the chase with ease. Jaiswal fell in the 14th over on 67 off 40 while Parag fell in the 16th on 77 off 49. Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell then kept the fight going and it came down to RR needing 13 to win off the final overe. Bhuvneshwar was the bowler and Ashwin was on strike with Powell at the other end. Only 11 runs came though, with Powell falling LBW off the final ball off which SRH needed just two runs and Bhuvi thus led SRH to an incredible one-run win. They were practically dead and buried in the middle overs and for most of the death overs in the RR chase and yet, they somehow sealed victory.
