9.20pm A new-look, explosive Royals side has racked up 210 for 6 in their 20 overs. It was an innings where momentum seamlessly switched from one batter to another. "Batting at No.4 was an interesting experience and I was just looking to execute my plans," Padikkal tells Star Sports. "RR has been a family and it's loveable. The pitch is a bit sticky and initially Bhuvi was swinging it. Hopefully, 210 should be enough."
The chasing side has dominated the IPL so far. Can Royals defend 210 this evening? Batting isn't SRH's stronger suit. Sreshth will take you through to the finish.
