Rajasthan Royals Had Posted A Target Of 154 Runs:
In Match 40 of the IPL 2020 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) defeated Rajasthan Royals (RR) by eight wickets. After the Hyderabad-based franchise was handed a target of 155 runs, Manish Pandey and Vijay Shankar scored unbeaten half centuries to help SRH get across the line.
In an innings comprising of four boundaries and eight sixes, Manish scored 83 runs off 47 deliveries. Shankar has accumulated 52 runs from 51 shipments, hitting six fours. Jofra Archer, the English pacer, took two wickets. RR finished earlier with a total of 154 runs for six wickets to lose. Sanju Samson was the highest run-scorer, accumulating 36 runs off 26 deliveries.
The rest of the batsmen, with a lack of acceleration at any point, struggled to make their presence felt. Opener Ben Stokes scored a 32-ball 30 at the top of the order, looking incredibly awkward. The pick of the bowlers for SRH, accounting for three wickets while conceding 33 runs, was Windies all-rounder Jason Keeper. Furthermore, Rashid Khan and Vijay Shankar picked up a wicket each.
