Sooryavanshi, Jurel dominate RCB bowlers, Rajasthan Royals pick comfortable win in Guwahati

Guwahati: After two back-to-back wins, Royal Challengers Bengaluru were considered one of the favourites to win the tournament. However, Rajasthan Royals handed them a reality check, as Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Dhruv Jurel played some phenomenal cricket at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati and got the job done for the hosts with 12 balls remaining. Chasing 202 runs, the match was expected to be a tight affair for Rajasthan, especially with Josh Hazlewood returning to the playing XI for RCB, but Sooryavanshi in particular had a different plan. He launched a scathing attack on the visitors, smacking a 15-ball half-century.…

For that, Hyderabad need to fix their batting unit. The opening duo of Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head havenโ€™t performed…

Phil Salt becomes first ever cricketer in IPL to register unwanted record with golden duck against Rajasthan Royals

Guwahati: Phil Saltโ€™s rough patch with the bat continued in the marquee clash against Rajasthan Royals at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. In the very first ball of the match, Jofra Archer got the better of him with a scorching bouncer. He hit the deck hard and Salt couldnโ€™t avoid it all and played it across but failed to time it. The ball went up in the air and resulted in an easy catch for keeper Dhruv Jurel. With that dismissal, Salt registered an unwanted record for the most first-ball dismissals in IPL history.
