What's next on the menu? The base stays in South India, as next up, we move back to Chepauk. Chennai Super Kings will go up against Kolkata Knight Riders, with the Knight Riders yet to register their first win of the season. That game will be played on Tuesday, 14th April, and the first ball is scheduled to be bowled at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). But our buildup begins well in advance, so do mark your presence for that as well. Until then, we sign off. Cheers!

The rookies rule in Hyderabad - An evening that well and truly belongs to Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain. SRH are back to winning ways and lift themselves up to the fourth spot with a lot of positives to look upon for their next assignment. They will now meet the Chennai Super Kings at home on Saturday, 18th April at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). As for the Rajasthan Royals, despite a heavy defeat, they remain crowned at the top. They will next face the Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens on Sunday, 19th April, at 3.30 pm IST (10 am GMT).

The captain of the Sunrisers Hyderabad - Ishan Kishan says he is definitely happy with the win and the 2 points, adding that this is the kind of performance they expected from their bowlers, who came in and enjoyed themselves. Kishan also highlights the hunger among the young bowlers, noting that they have been working hard with the bowling coach, Varun Aaron. He adds that their performances in the practice matches were encouraging and that they carried that form into the game. On the batting unit, he says the players are in good form and backs Abhishek Sharma's natural approach, adding that if he gets going, he can take the team to a strong total. Kishan also mentions that as a captain, he felt there was some miscommunication in the earlier games when he was keeping, and time was lost in conversation with the bowlers, which influenced his decision not to take the gloves in this game.

PLAYER OF THE MATCH - No surprises here. It's Praful Hinge who wins the award for his fantastic spell of 4/34, including 14 dots. He says this debut was something he had quite literally manifested. Reveals that as far back as last year, he had visualised making his IPL debut and taking four to five wickets, adding that he is a firm believer in the power of manifestation. Reflecting on his journey, Hinge shares he began playing cricket at the age of 13 without even knowing what leather ball cricket was, and had to ask his father to take him to an academy. He dedicates the award to his family, acknowledging the countless sacrifices they made along the way. On his favourite wicket of the night, he, without any hesitation, picks Sooryavanshi's wicket, saying he is in terrific form and that he had actually told a few people beforehand that he would get him out on the first ball with a bouncer. He further adds that a conversation with bowling coach Varun Aaron helped him draw the plan, and it paid off perfectly. On his physical condition, Hinge says he is feeling fine and takes a moment to thank the MRF Pace Academy for looking after him well during his time there.

... Time for the post-match Presentation ...

One of the stars with the ball is up next - SRH's Sakib Hussain says that every player dreams of such a debut. On when he found out he would be playing, Sakib reveals that bowling coach Varun Aaron had informed him a day in advance, giving him the time to prepare and settle his nerves. He credits Aaron, saying he had been working closely with him over the last few months and that all the credit for his performance belongs to his coach.

Reflecting on the defeat - The captain of the Rajasthan Royals, Riyan Parag, credits the way the two debutants bowled for SRH, saying they were outstanding. He admits there were a few miscalculations from their side but adds that they will treat it as a blip and not dwell on it too much. Riyan feels bowling second might have been the better option, though he acknowledges that it is easy to say that in hindsight. He explains that with the new ball, there was some stickiness with the shine on, but once it wore off, it slowed down. Parag says he has not seen much of the debutants in domestic cricket, though he has played against Sakib Hussain before. Mentions that they started really well with the ball, and not bowling Ravindra Jadeja was a split-second decision against Ishan Kishan. Riyan points out that even after being 9/5, getting to 159 shows the depth in their batting. He signs off by saying it is just a blip and they will move on as they head to Kolkata.

The Ishan Kishan show in Hyderabad - Sunrisers Hyderabad crossed 200 once again, though it was far from a collective effort from the top. Abhishek Sharma was gone off the very first ball, with Head departing soon after, leaving the innings in need of a foundation. Kishan provided exactly that, taking time to settle before unleashing a stunning 91 that gave SRH the platform they needed. Klaasen, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Salil Arora then chipped in through the back end to push the total past the 200-mark. Rajasthan Royals will look back at the final five overs with some frustration, having conceded 62 in that stretch. Their overseas pacers, Archer and Burger, were impressive throughout, but Tushar Deshpande and Sandeep Sharma leaked 107 runs in their collective 8 overs, ultimately costing the side in the death overs.

A partnership to restore some pride - The ball got softer, the movement waned, and suddenly, batting felt a lot more hospitable. But RR had already lost half their side, and the hole they were in was deep. Jadeja and Ferreira refused to throw in the towel. Through the middle phase, the two dug in and batted with togetherness. A 118-run partnership, a valiant half century from Ferreira, and some composed batting through the spin overs gave RR's innings a spine it looked unlikely to have after that devastating opening burst. But just as hope flickered, it was snuffed out. Ferreira and Jadeja fell within four balls of each other, and with them went RR's last realistic chance of pulling a rabbit out of the hat. Both the debutants, Praful and Sakib, ended their spells with four wickets each and conceded just 58 runs across their eight overs, in what was a debut they will remember for life.

The City of Pearls unearths the gems - There are stories, and then there are fairytales. Tonight, Hyderabad wrote one in the first three overs. Praful Hinge, on his IPL debut, was thrown straight into the furnace against two of the most deadly openers this season. He came up trumps in style with a three-wicket first over. Sooryavanshi was beaten for pace, Jurel's off stump was flattened, and Pretorius was caught in the deep. Another debutant, Sakib Hussain, looked at Hinge and said, you are not alone, mate. Jaiswal, dangerous as ever, was his prey. Parag edged one to slip to become Hinge's fourth victim, and just like that, RR were 9/5.

Belter bites the batting giants - A graveyard for bowlers. That is what the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium has built its reputation on. A surface that has witnessed scores breaking all the mathematical possibilities. And if the pitch was not daunting enough, both sides had brought their most fearsome weapons to the party. JaiSoorya, the alliance of Sooryavanshi and Jaiswal, against Travishek, the Head and Abhishek combination, two of the most destructive opening pairs this season, all set to light up the night. But sport has a habit of tearing up the script. Two opening pairs that have habitually tormented bowlers for fun, that have made a mockery of totals and reduced attacks to rubble, could not fire at all.

SRH outbowl and outbat RR - Coming into this game, Rajasthan Royals were looking like an unstoppable force, having beaten the likes of CSK, RCB, MI and GT. But it all took two uncapped Indian bowlers to stop this ruthless juggernaut. This victory will taste a lot sweeter for the Sunrisers as there were a lot of question marks behind their bowling unit. Thin on experience, reshuffled and untested. But in the most emphatic fashion imaginable, those doubts just might have been silenced.

Eshan Malinga to Tushar Deshpande, OUT! c Ishan Kishan b Eshan Malinga.OUT! CAUGHT! The Royals are no longer unbeaten. A night to remember for the Orange Army. SRH hand RR their first defeat of the season with this 57-run win. Eshan Malinga attempts the yorker but it comes out as a full toss, on off and middle. Tushar swings at it. Slices it off the outer half towards extra cover, where Ishan Kishan settles under it and gobbles it up. Deshpande takes a chance as he reviews with the hope of the ball being above his waist. The third umpire is summoned for a check and he does not even need the Ball Tracker as the ball is below the waist to the naked eye. Malinga finishes with a couple of wickets, but the night belonged to the two debutants who got together and took down the league leaders.

Eshan Malinga to Nandre Burger, 1 run.Hits the bat hard, does Malinga. On a back of a length, on middle. Nandre pushes it to long on for a single.

Praful Hinge to Tushar Deshpande, Six!SIX! That has gone back many a mile! Praful Hinge will have to settle for a four-wicket haul on debut. Special effort regardless. Hinge goes wide on the crease on the around-the-wicket angle and bowls the slower, short ball, on middle. Tushar Deshpande waits on the back foot for the ball to arrive and dispatches it way over wide long on for a six. A night Praful will remember for life. 4-0-34-4 on his IPL debut.

Praful Hinge to Tushar Deshpande, 2 runs.Cannons the yorker in, on middle and leg. Tushar jams the bat down and shovels it wide of mid-wicket for a couple of runs. Praful Hinge has one ball left in his spell. Can he clinch the fifth wicket?

Nandre Burger is the last man in for RR. And Praful Hinge is back into the attack. 3-0-18-4. Can he complete the five-for on debut?

Sakib Hussain to Ravi Bishnoi, OUT! c Ishan Kishan b Sakib Hussain.OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Wicket number 4 for Sakib Hussain. Sakib says to his fellow debutant, if you can do it, I can do it just as well. Hussain's joy knows no bounds. Hussain rolls his fingers over the ball and dishes out the off-cutter, on a length, Ravi Bishnoi has a swing at it but can only sky it high up beside the strip on the off side. Sakib spots Ishan Kishan getting under it after moving to his right from cover and he leaves it for the captain. Kishan does the rest.

Another bites the dust. Ravi Bishnoi is the new batter in at number 10.

Sakib Hussain to Jofra Archer, OUT! c Praful Hinge b Sakib Hussain.OUT! CAUGHT! The two debutants combine, who have had a night to remember. Hussain sticks to the off-cutter, on a good length, on off and middle. Jofra Archer premeditates as he looks to angle the bat face and direct the ramp past short third. He has no pace to work with and he spoons it to short third, where Praful Hinge moves to his left and slides to take a good low catch.

Sakib Hussain to Jofra Archer, Wide!Wide! Brings out the off-cutter and it spins back in sharply. It starts on the leg stump line and keeps going down leg. Archer misses the glance.

Sakib Hussain to Jofra Archer, No run.Oh, nearly another for Sakib! A well-disguised off-cutter, on a good length, on middle. Archer does not pick the change of pace and is early into the heave across the line. The bounce takes the ball over the stumps.

Eshan Malinga to Tushar Deshpande, No run.Around leg, on a length. Deshpande is beaten for pace on the flick and gets hit on the pads.

And with Jadeja go the hopes of RR, fully. Tushar Deshpande is the new batter in at number 9.

Eshan Malinga to Ravindra Jadeja, OUT! c Salil Arora b Eshan Malinga.OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! SRH get the review right and Eshan Malinga has his first wicket of the night. Pushed across off, on a hard length. Jadeja arches back and looks to run it down to deep third but misses. The ball passes close to the toe end of the bat before going through to the keeper, Salil Arora. Arora is pretty confident and Ishan Kishan sends it upstairs. The UltraEdge comes up with a big spike when the ball is near the toe of the blade and the on-field decision is reversed.

Eshan Malinga to Jofra Archer, 1 run.Very full, at the toes. Archer jams it out through wide mid on for a single.

Eshan Malinga to Ravindra Jadeja, 1 run.Angled across on a shorter length, Ravindra Jadeja punches it wide of cover, to his right for a single.

STRATEGIC BREAK! It has been the night of debutants for SRH. One did most of the early damage, and the other has just snuffed out any real threat of the Royals pulling off a heist with the wicket of Donovan Ferreira. The Sunrisers should close it out from here. As for the Royals, how Jadeja goes about the remainder of the game is now more about ensuring the net run rate does not take a big hit. Jofra Archer joins Jadeja out in the middle.

Sakib Hussain to Donovan Ferreira, OUT! b Sakib Hussain.OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! Number two for Sakib on his debut and he has his arms aloft, looking at the heavens in relief. A nicely masked slower ball, on a back of a length and just outside off, with a slight nip back in. Ferreira has absolutely no read on it and throws his bat across the line in an ungainly swipe. Misses it by a mile and the ball goes under his bat to rattle the furniture behind. End of a valiant knock from Donovan Ferreira. Rajasthan Royals are 127/6.

Sakib Hussain to Donovan Ferreira, 2 runs.IN THE AIR... FALLS JUST SAFELY! Length ball at 114.4 kph, in the channel outside off.

Eshan Malinga to Ravindra Jadeja, Four!FOUR! Crashed through the gap! Just 111.7 kph, short and outside off. Jadeja has to generate his own power here because of pace off. Stands tall and absolutely bludgeons it through the covers for four.

Eshan Malinga to Ravindra Jadeja, Wide!WIDE! Over-the-head bumper, dug into the pitch, outside off. A little too high and Jadeja lets it be.

Eshan Malinga to Ravindra Jadeja, 1 run.Full and outside off, slower too. Jadeja bunts it to the cover region for a single.

Eshan Malinga to Donovan Ferreira, Leg bye.Some hint of reverse on this one! Speared full and swinging in on leg, Ferreira has a big swing and misses completely. Takes it on the back leg and picks up a leg bye through square leg. There is a loud appeal for LBW, but the umpire shakes his head. Probably doing a bit too much to miss the leg pole. And confirmed by the Ball Tracking.

Eshan Malinga (1-0-8-0) has been brought back into the attack.

Nitish Kumar Reddy to Donovan Ferreira, 1 run.12 runs off the over! Reddy takes pace off, on a length, around off. Donovan Ferreira has a swipe across the line, and it goes off the inner half to deep mid-wicket for just a single. The 100-run stand comes up!

Nitish Kumar Reddy to Donovan Ferreira, 4 runs.OVERTHROWS! And more worryingly, a misfield while backing up the throw in the deep. Low full toss outside off, pushed straight to Ishan Kishan at extra cover, who spots Jadeja wandering and has a shy at the bowler's end. The backing up on the leg side is not ideal as the deep square leg fielder sprints and slides across to his left, but lets it through to the ropes.

Nitish Kumar Reddy to Donovan Ferreira, No run.Deceives the batter by a pace off ball, outside off, on a length. It doesn't rise much and beats Donovan Ferreira on an ambitious pull shot as it goes underground.

Nitish Kumar Reddy to Ravindra Jadeja, 1 run.Oh, nearly a run out! Good length outside off at 116.1 kph, this is chopped in front of backward point. Jadeja is keen for a quick single but is sent back by his partner. The throw hits the stumps directly but Jadeja has just got his bat down in time. The ball deflects away to deep square leg and they scamper through for one.

Nitish Kumar Reddy to Ravindra Jadeja, Four!FOUR! PUNISHED! Short and at a gentle pace, on the body. But doesn't trouble Jadeja as he stands tall and pulls it to the right of deep mid-wicket. Sakib Hussain rushes across, dives to his right, but the ball stays out of his reach.

Harsh Dubey to Donovan Ferreira, Four!FOUR! Misfield from Abhishek and that takes FERREIRA TO HIS MAIDEN IPL FIFTY! Another half-tracker outside off from Dubey, and Ferreira is onto it in a flash. Gets right on top of the bounce and slaps it hard through cover-point. The deep cover fielder dives to his left but cannot cut it off. A fine knock from the Proteas all-rounder so far, but the job is far from being done, and he knows it too. Keeps the celebration calm and collected.

Harsh Dubey to Donovan Ferreira, Four!FOUR! Bisects the fielders to perfection! A bit too short, on middle. Donovan Ferreira is quick to jump on the back foot and pulls it to the leg side, beating the long on and deep mid-wicket fielders for a boundary.

Shivang Kumar to Donovan Ferreira, 1 run.Flat and slightly fuller than the previous ball, outside off. Donovan Ferreira drags it down to long on for a run. A productive over for the Rajasthan Royals. 13 runs from it. They need 134 more runs from 54 balls.

Shivang Kumar to Donovan Ferreira, Six!SIX! BANG! Slightly fuller and on off, Donovan Ferreira gets under the ball, ends up slicing it a bit, but the sheer muscle power is enough to sail the ball over long off for a six.

Shivang Kumar to Donovan Ferreira, No run.BEATEN! Completely misses it. Full and a deceptive googly, around off. Donovan Ferreira fails to pick the wrong'un and swooshes hard at it to smash downtown, but misses as the ball spins past the outside edge. Salil Arora failed to gather the ball, and it popped out of his gloves. Well, well, there was a sound, and the UltraEdge confirms the outside edge.

Halfway crossed. RR's 70/5 meets SRH's 89/2 after 10 overs. Shivang Kumar to continue. An interesting battle awaits us. Shivang vs Ferreira.

Harsh Dubey to Ravindra Jadeja, Wide!Wide! Flirting with the tramline on a good length. Ravindra Jadeja makes the leave. The bowler and the keeper are not happy with the wide call but with only one review left and given the match situation, SRH do not take the review.

Harsh Dubey to Ravindra Jadeja, No run.Oh, that could have so easily gone back onto the stumps. Pushed through, on the fuller side. Jadeja stays back to a full ball and looks to cut it away. Ends up chopping it down beside him on the off side.

Spin from both ends now as Harsh Dubey replaces Nitish Kumar Reddy.

Shivang Kumar to Ravindra Jadeja, 1 run.Quick single! On middle and leg, on a nagging length. Jadeja hops back and drops it beside the strip on the leg side before setting off for the run. The keeper, Salil Arora, moves across to his right, turns around and has a shy at the batting end but his throw is a loopy one and it balloons well over the stumps. Ferreira was in any way.

Shivang Kumar to Donovan Ferreira, No run.Short and turning away, that is punched off the back foot, but not in the gap as Ishan Kishan makes the stop at extra cover.

STRATEGIC BREAK! Looks like whatever swing was on offer has waned away now as the ball has gotten softer. The Royals will definitely feel the sting of losing too many wickets way early. But you cannot simply take the credit away from the way Praful and Sakib have bowled on their debut. Though Jadeja and Ferreira have somewhat steadied the sinking ship for the tourists, needing 159 from 72 balls, is still a mountainous ask. Also, the fact that this is the last recognised batting pair for RR. The Sunrisers will aim to break this stand as quickly as possible and expose one end to completely boss the game. Shivang Kumar (1-0-11-0) to continue after the break.

Nitish Kumar Reddy to Donovan Ferreira, 1 run.Attacking the front pad, on a length. Ferreira brings his bat out in front and clips it to wide long on for a single.

Nitish Kumar Reddy to Ravindra Jadeja, Wide!Wide! Reddy sprays it beyond the tramline on off. Jadeja lets it go.

Nitish Kumar Reddy replaces Eshan Malinga.

Shivang Kumar to Donovan Ferreira, Four!FOUR! Uppish but in the gap! The 50 is up for RR. From around the wicket, on a good length, turning back in, on off. Donovan Ferreira looks to force it away on the off side but the ball kicks up a bit to catch a thickish outside edge. It flies wide of short third to his right for another four.
