SRH vs RR, IPL 2023: Umran Malik, Abdul Samad try but can't help Sunrisers much as they lose by 72 runs
- Karen Noronha

The Sunday doubleheader begins with Match 4 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 pitting Rajasthan Royals (RR) against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).
The Hyderabad team is being led by Bhubneshwar Kumar in the absence of designated skipper Aiden Markram, who is unable to play due to international obligations. The other Proteas players Heinrich Klaasen and Marco Jansen also won't be able to attend the initial game.
On the other hand, Sanju Samson as always will be leading Rajasthan. The franchise will be aiming to snap its lengthy trophy drought this year after only winning the competition once,
SRH vs RR: Sunrisers lose by 72 runs
The final overs were spectacular with the J&K boys Umran Malik and Abdul Samad firing across the park.
In the final over, they scored 23 runs, but RR won't care much as they picked up a huge win!!
But not to forget, the two lower-order batters contribute towards the NRR.
SRH vs RR: WICKET - Chahal sends back Bhuvneshwar
That's a fourth for Yuzi!!
Bhuvneshwar backed away for a big hit and played the wrong line which saw him lose his stumps in the process.
Bhuvneshwar b Chahal 6(10)
SRH vs RR: WICKET - 3-fer for Chahal, Sunrisers 81/7
Adil Rashid used his feet to try and hit the ball, but Chahal bowled it wider and slower through the air.

SRH vs RR: Rajasthan Royals get 203 on board
Massive score by RR!
A very good Powerplay from Buttler and Jaiswal as both batters tore into the SRH attack.
However, just when it looked like Buttler would go on attack mode, he was undone by Fazalhaq Farooqi. Jaiswal, later slowed down and Samson took charge.
All three batters scored 50+ runs and cameo by Shimron Hetmyer (22*) was enough to put 200+ runs on the board.
Fazalhaq Farooqi and T Natarajan got 2 wickets each while Umran Malik got one to his name.
SRH vs RR: WICKET - Impressive catch by Abhishek Sharma at the ropes
Superb balancing act with the left-foot from Abhishek at deep mid-wicket!
A back of a length delivery outside off and Samson swiped and nearly got it all the way. BUT Abhishek was there on the edge of the cushions and took a clean catch but juggled on his left-foot beautifully to not touch the skirting.
Samson c Abhishek Sharma b T Natarajan 55(32) [4s-3 6s-4]
SRH vs RR: 50 for Sanju Samson
