RR vs SRH Highlights: Ishan, Abhishek hit fifties, Cummins shines with ball as Hyderabad crush Rajasthan in Jaipur

Ishan Kishan wins the Player of the Match award for his 74 off 31 balls knock.

"I think as a wicket-keeper, you have to do the same job. Keep it simple. Good wicket to bat on, wanted to restrict them below 230 and we did that. Fun, leading the side of seven games, and then Pat coming back and giving us that extra bowling power. Thinking about batting and wicket-keeping more than leadership. It's just that you have to keep on watching ball, you have to play your game. I think it was pretty quick [first Jofra ball], happy to get six off it. Fortune favours the brave. I think we were pretty calm, most important thing is have a good powerplay.

With 10 points and a superior net run rate, Sunrisers Hyderabad swap positions with Rajasthan Royals and reach 3rd in the IPL 2026 Points Table. Rajasthan Royals slip to fourth position with 10 points.

Unbeaten Punjab Kings remain at the top with 13 points in 7 matches. The defending champions RCB occupy 2nd spot with 10 points, but with a superior net run rate than SRH and RR.

"Dropped a few too many catches. Quality players like Abhishek, can't drop quality batters. Could have been better on the field. We've got to be clinical. Fielding plays a major part in that. We've got a day's break. Mentally refresh and come back the next day. We left 10-15 [runs] on the table. To be honest, they bowled well in the 18th and 20th. Executed their yorkers. Would've liked another 15 runs. [On Bishnoi's late introduction] There were two lefties, I thought me and Don had better chances to get wicket. Wicket was not spin-friendly, I just had to manage four overs.. Didn't really go to plan. Different venues, different games, different ways to approach it. Don't know how Chandigarh will go."

Salil Arora smashes Nandre Burger for a huge six over deep mid wicket to finish the game in a style. No late drama in Jaipur as Sunrisers Hyderabad chase down a 229-run target without any trouble.
