Rajasthan Royals beat Sunrisers Hyderabad
Vishakhapatnam, Apr 16 (IBNS) Rajasthan Royals sealed a 6-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in an Indian Premier League match here on Thursday.
Chasing a target of 128 runs, Rajasthan Royals' opener Ajinkya Rahane shined with the bat as he scored 62 off 56 balls, hitting 9 fours during his knock.
The match went right down to the wire as the contest was not over till the very last ball of the Royals' innings.
But, James Faulkner(6 off 5) and Stuart Binny(16 off 14) held their nerve to see their team through to the finishing line.
Ravi Bopara picked up two wickets for Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Earlier in the match, the Sunrisers were restricted to a low total of just 127 runs as Dhawal Kulkarni took two wickets by giving away 9 runs in his 4 overs.
None of the Sunrisers Hyderabad batsmen were able to cross the 30 run mark.
Eoin Morgan(27) and Naman Ojha(25) showed some promise but were dismissed very soon.
It was the most low-scoring match of IPL 2015 till now.
