Anmolpreet Singh and Abhishek Sharma gave Sunrisers Hyderabad a decent start in the 215-run chase against Rajasthan Royals in the IPL 2023 encounter in Jaipur. The pair added 51 before Yuzvendra Chahal provided the hosts with the first breakthrough in the form of Anmolpreet Singh, who departed for 33(25). Abhishek carried on and went to score 55(34) before getting out to R Ashwin. Henrich Klaasen and Rahul Tripathi are batting in the middle. Meanwhile, Jos Buttler, who struggled in recent outings, roared back to form as he smashed a 59-ball 95 to power Rajasthan to a staggering 214/2 in 20 overs after they opted to bat. Buttler’s knock featured ten 4s and four 6s and he found great support from his skipper Sanju Samson, who returned unbeaten on 66(38). Together the duo added 138 runs for the second wicket after Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal gave Rajasthan an explosive start.
