Rajasthan Royals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Highlights And Cricket Score 4th Match - T20 Commentary

End of Over : 20.0 RR: 125/9

All the bowlers have shared the spoils. The pacers were really hot to handle with their short stuff while the spinners got good grip and assistance off the wicket. To add to it, their fielders were on song too. They have done the job exceedingly well and now it's on their batsmen to take them over the line. One would feel it would be a stroll in the park but as my colleague says, stranger things have happened in cricket, so let's hope for a fight in the second half. Will the fourth game in a row be won by the chasing side? Join us in a bit to find out...

Sensational display of bowling from Hyderabad, something that they have been doing for years now in the competition. Kane Williamson inserted Rajasthan in to bat and gave his team an ideal start with a classic run out dismissing D'Arcy Short. Sanju Samson and Ajinkya Rahane were going well to bring things back on track but the wicket of the latter brought about the downfall. The tourists just couldn't get back on track as they kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Apart from Sanju Samson, who scored 49, the rest hardly contributed and as a result, they ended up with a really below par total.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to D'Arcy Short. OUT! Run out! Kane Williamson draws first blood, if I can say that. Superb arm, superb fielding. We saw him pulling off some screamers in the recently concluded Test series against England and he has made a statement already here. Fuller ball, Short pushes it towards mid off and sets off. Kane charges towards the ball, picks it up with his right hand and nails the stumps at the bowler's end. Looked out on the first look but it's still taken upstairs. Replays confirm the Australian is gone, not a happy beginning for him on his debut in this league. This is the first time after 5 T20s that D�Arcy Short has failed to score 30.

There's a direct hit at the bowler's end by Williamson and tell you what? D'Arcy Short seems to be well short of his crease. Is that the first breakthrough for the hosts? They are already celebrating but let's wait for the official confirmation.

0.5 0

0.1 0

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Ajinkya Rahane. Starts off with an away swinger, it keeps shaping away, Rahane watches it go through to the keeper.

We are all set for the action to kickoff. The players have taken their positions along with the umpires. The two openers are Ajinkya Rahane and D'Arcy Short. It will be the leading wicket-taker of the last two seasons who will steam in first up. A couple of slips in place. Here we go!!!

Rajasthan skipper, Ajinkya Rahane says even they wanted to bowl but the toss isn't in anyone's control. Is looking forward to set a good total on the board and later defend it down. Informs they had some good preparations back home and his boys are excited about this game. His four foreign players are - Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, D'Arcy Short and Ben Laughlin.

Hyderabad skipper, Kane Williamson says they will bowl first. Is excited to lead the team and says they have a fairly new side from previous years. Hopes that they start well with the ball in hand. The four overseas players for them are - Rashid Khan, Billy Stanlake, himself and Shakib Al Hasan.

Toss - Williamson spins the coin and it comes down in his favour. Hyderabad will bowl!

The big names that are expected to take the field tonight are - Alex Hales, Ben Stokes, Shikhar Dhawan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Rashid Khan. Does this excite you? The teams that have chased have won all the three games so far. Will it remain the same? Let's see as the skippers are out there for the toss.

Hello T20 freaks! Welcome to match 4 of the Indian T20 League and it's a game between Hyderabad and the ones who are making their return after a 2-year hiatus - Rajasthan, the team that won the very first season. Both the teams have suffered an early blow due to the loss of their regular skippers. However, that shouldn't hamper them now as both the teams possess a strong unit.

End of Over : 15.5 SRH: 127/1

So, a lopsided game was on offer tonight, not something that we like. All the teams have played a game each now and the ones batting second came out victorious. On that stat, we take your leave but don't forget to join us for game 5 - Chennai vs Kolkata in the former's den on Tuesday at 2000 IST. Hasta La Vista. Cheers!

Man of the Match, Shikhar Dhawan says he enjoys playing a long innings as it benefits him and the team. Reckons that he is just implementing the things he's learned with the national team here and is happy he's able to pull it off. States that the fielding is one of their strong suits, which will help them as the tournament progresses.

Kane Williamson says his guys were brilliant all around and did exceptionally well with the ball. Adds all the bowlers played their part, took wickets and also the catches which was important. Mentions that the short ball plan was more due to the surface than the batsmen, but is happy either way it worked out. Applauds Shikhar Dhawan for his outstanding batting and executing his plans well.

Ajinkya Rahane says they thought the score they had on the board was low, as 150-160 would have been a good score. Credits Hyderabad for doing well with the ball. Adds that he and Samson got off to a good start, but then lost the plot in the middle overs. States that they needed partnerships which never came and that dropped catch by him, which in essence cost them the match, is something which is a part of the game, so he takes everything in his stride. Ends by saying that they will learn from their mistakes and work on it.

The only thing that didn't work for the hosts was Wriddhiman Saha opening. That's the only thing that can be faulted, otherwise everything else was on song. The skipper lent a good hand to Shikhar Dhawan and together they amassed an unbeaten 121-run stand, which also happened to be their best for the second wicket in the history of the tournament. The duo saw its side starting the season with a superb win without any fuss. Earlier in the day, their bowling and fielding as good as their batting, which more or less sealed the deal. Stick with us for the presentation.

A blockbuster start to the season for Hyderabad, clinical and dominating as it gets. Firstly, their bowlers with a disciplined effort restricted the opposition to a scanty 125 and then when they came out to bat, it was Shikhar Dhawan who just stole the show with an unbeaten 77, studded with 13 fours and a maximum. He was dropped on 0 by Ajinkya Rahane and boy, he made them pay big time as he just tore them apart. Not sure if that dropped chance would have made much of a difference but at least the mockery that the southpaw made, could have been avoided.

15.5 4

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. FOUR! Dhawan finishes it off in style! Nicely done. Back of a length around off, Shikhar stays back and connects the pull perfectly. He muscles it over mid-wicket and sends it across the rope for a boundary. With that, HYDERABAD WIN BY 9 WICKETS AND 25 BALLS TO SPARE!

Big appeal goes up, the umpire remains unmoved. Rajasthan, however, probably in a desperate attempt, decide to take the review. It goes upstairs and replays confirm it pitched outside leg. Everything ends there. Leg bye taken.

Review. For an lbw appeal against Shikhar Dhawan. Not sure why it's taken, it's clearly pitched outside leg. The replays will confirm that.

Direct hit! Shikhar Dhawan is the man in the spotlight but he looks confident he's in. Let's see now...

9.3 4

Ben Stokes to Shikhar Dhawan. FOUR! Classy from the southpaw! Full ball, outside off again, little bit of width and that's all Dhawan needs. He drives it through the covers and gets another boundary to his name.

7.3 1

7.2 4

Ben Stokes to Shikhar Dhawan. FOUR! Poor line again. Stokes sprays it down the leg side, Dhawan just helps it on its way and finds the fence, beating the fielder in the deep. All too easy for the hosts so far.

7.1 4

6.1 4

Shreyas Gopal to Shikhar Dhawan. FOUR! Not the ideal start for the spinner. Flatter, shorter and on off, Dhawan goes deep inside the crease and muscles the pull over mid-wicket. Nobody out there in the deep, so that will go across the rope easily.

Shreyas Gopal brought on to bowl.

Time for Strategic break.

End of Over : 6 12 Runs SRH: 57/1

Ben Laughlin to Shikhar Dhawan. No ball! But it isn't one, the umpire has got this wrong. A lot of the heel was behind the line. Landed short outside off, Dhawan taps it down on the off side with soft hands. Free Hit coming up...

3.5 6

Jaydev Unadkat to Kane Williamson. SIX! Showing his class, is the evergreen Kane Williamson. What a player! Bumper on the stumps, the Hyderabad skipper moves inside the line, positions himself well and nails the pull over square leg to perfection. Rockets into the stands and picks up a biggie.

3.4 0

Jaydev Unadkat to Kane Williamson. Touch straighter in line, on middle and off, gets behind the line of the ball and blocks.

3.3 4

Jaydev Unadkat to Kane Williamson. FOUR! Scintillating shot from Kane Williamson! Picks up the length early as it's pitched a bit short, so he rises on his toes and cuts it beautifully past point to send it all the way.

2.6 wd

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. Wide! Way, way, way, way, way down the leg side. Dhawan doesn't even think about fiddling with that. I wouldn't have either to be honest, can't blame him. Clear wide signalled by the umpire.

2.5 6

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. SIX! Typical Shikhar Dhawan, that. Short ball, outside off, Dhawan knows exactly what he's going to do here. He stands tall and cuts it hard over third man and clears the fence with absolute ease. It's the first biggie of the night, believe it or not.

2.4 0

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. Marginally ahead of a length, quite close to off, cut hard, but straight to the man at point.

2.3 0

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. Play and a miss! Slightly fullish in length and moving away from off, Shikhar looks to slash this hard, but fails to make any kind of connection.

2.2 4

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. FOUR! Full and outside off, Dhawan crouches a little low and crunches the drive through the covers, for a boundary this time. Good shot.

2.1 2

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. Fuller in length and in the channel outside off, driven through the covers for a couple.

End of Over : 2 10 Runs SRH: 11/1

1.5 4

Jaydev Unadkat to Shikhar Dhawan. FOUR! Edged and over! Not where he exactly intended to play, but he'll accept the runs regardless. Short ball, cramped for room again but he flashes hard at this one. It takes a thick edge and flies over the slip cordon for a boundary.

1.4 0

Jaydev Unadkat to Shikhar Dhawan. Landed on a length around off, it straightens off the seam as Dhawan walks down the track. It beats the outside edge and goes into the keeper's gloves.

Kane Williamson is in at No. 3.

1.3 W

Jaydev Unadkat to Wriddhiman Saha. OUT! First strike for Rajasthan! Unadkat provides the breakthrough. Fuller on off, Saha looks to clear the infield but doesn't time it well. Lofts it high in the air, towards mid off, where Laughlin backpedals a bit and takes a good catch. The costliest Indian player this season lets out a huge roar and is all pumped up. Can Rajasthan pick up a few more inside the first six overs?

1.3 wd

Jaydev Unadkat to Wriddhiman Saha. Wide! Short ball on middle and leg, too short and Saha has nothing to do with that.

1.2 0

End of Over : 1 1 Runs SRH: 1/0
0.6 0

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. Dropped! That too, by one of the safest fielders around. Shortish just outside off, Dhawan is a little cramped for room as he plays the cut shot. Edges it behind towards first slip where Rahane is positioned. At a comfortable height, you'd usually back him to take it, but he puts it down somehow.

0.5 0

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. Short ball, well outside off, the southpaw doesn't have anything to do with that.

0.4 0

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. Full delivery outside off, with a hint of inswing, Dhawan drives this back down the ground, but can't beat mid off.

0.3 0

Dhawal Kulkarni to Shikhar Dhawan. Full and wide outside off, Dhawan goes for the big booming drive through the covers but mistimes it in the same region, towards the fielder.

0.2 1

Dhawal Kulkarni to Wriddhiman Saha. Off the mark with that. Fraction straight in line, Saha turns this with the wrists towards fine leg and crosses over.

0.1 0

Dhawal Kulkarni to Wriddhiman Saha. Short of a good length around off, shaping away, Saha opens the face of the bat and taps it down in front of backward point.

We are back for the chase. A score the hosts would back themselves to hunt down. It will be Shikhar Dhawan and Wriddhiman Saha to open the innings for Hyderabad, while Dhawal Kulkarni will take the ball first up. A slip in place for him, let's go...
