    14.4 no need for any review this time! Avesh sticks to nailing the wide yorkers and that prompts Head to do something different. Walks across and looks for the lap. Gets a good piece of it but deflects it straight into middle stump. Middle stump is flat on the ground, and Head has to walk back after a 44-ball 58! 131/3
    4.1 Avesh gets Abhishek! Banged into the track on off. Abhishek tries to help it over the deep square leg fence but does not free his arms fully. It is not a full swing of the bat either, and all he does is pick out the sweeper to perfection. Avesh has a smile on his face, and this is just reward for a tidy start by RR! 25/1
    5.1 and Sandeep into the wickets! Length ball that pitches on middle and off, and nips back in a shade. Anmolpreet tries to flick it away but cannot keep it down. A tame chip towards Jaiswal at mid wicket, who dives forward and completes a smart catch! 35/2

    13.3 stumps everywhere! Natarajan with the breakthrough! Very similar to what happened with Travis Head. This is a yorker outside off. Jaiswal tries to lap it away and gets into position. Gets bat on it but only manages to smash it into his stumps. Middle and leg stump are left in a mess, and that might be the window of opportunity SRH were after! 135/3
    0.2 the slip is in play straightaway! Bhuvneshwar rips out Buttler again! Back of a length just outside off. A hint of movement away from the batter. Buttler wafts at it and gets a thick outside edge that flies towards Jansen. He gobbles up the chance, and that is just the start SRH would have wanted! 1/1
    0.5 cleans him up with an absolute jaffa! Bhunveshwar Kumar at his absolute best! Fullish ball that starts just outside off and boomerangs back in. Samson does not get to the pitch and goes searching for it. Does so in front of his pad and leaves a massive gap. The ball zips through and flattens middle stump! 1/2
    15.5 straight to long on! Cummins takes out Parag, and is there a twist in this tale!? Full just outside off. Parag, sitting back in his crease, looks to go downtown. This one, though, is just full enough to prevent him from getting under it completely. Jansen makes no mistake on the fence, and both of RR's set batters have been dismissed in quick succession! 159/4
    17.4 Hetmyer falls! Low full toss slanted into leg stump. Hetmyer's eyes light up and he tries to smash the cover off the ball. Cloths it, though, and long on completes the catch well inside the fence. Are SRH still in this, somehow? 181/5
    19.6 huge appeal, and the finger goes up! Bhuvneshwar Kumar has won it for SRH, and they have come back from the brink to upset the table toppers! Full toss zinged into middle and leg. Powell has a swing across the line and misses. Gets pinned on the back leg and the slow, dreaded finger of Anil Choudhary goes up. Powell is disconsolate and he has reviewed but it is immaterial. Even if he is deemed not out, they will not get any runs. The Ball Tracking graphic comes up, and it only confirms what we all knew. Powell is out, and that is that. What drama in Hyderabad. The Rajasthan Royals don't know where to look. They do not know what has hit them. SRH don't know how they have done this. This is a comeback and some, and a tale those at the ground will tell the next generation about! 200/7
    18.1 the Sunrisers Hyderabad are alive! And the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad is alive too! Half-volley on the pads. Jurel steps across his stumps and tries to shovel it over deep square leg. The bottom hand comes off ever so slightly, though, and he arrows it to Abhishek, who tracks the ball and holds on to the chance! 182/6
