However, Kishan rose to the occasion with a breathtaking display of sensational batting. He bludgeoned 91 runs off 44 deliveries to bring SRH back in the game.
Heinrich Klaasen contributed heavily with a much-needed 40 from 26 balls. Their partnership helped Sunrisers Hyderabad recover strongly and post a magnificent total of 216/6 in 20 overs.

Debutant bowler Praful Hinge made an unforgettable impact, ripping through RR's top order with a remarkable spell. He dismissed Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Dhruv Jurel, Lhuan-dre Pretorius, and Riyan Parag in a stunning spell that saw four wickets fall in 11 deliveries.
Another debutant, Sakib Hussain, further compounded Rajasthan’s woes by claiming the key wicket of Yashasvi Jaiswal early in the innings. Amid the collapse, Donovan Ferreira played a spirited knock of 69. And Ravindra Jadeja also contributed with 44, but their departure put RR on the backfoot as they were bowled out for 159 in 19 overs.
