Guwahati, 10 April. On Friday night at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, there was such a stormy rain of fours and sixes from the bats of the teenage sensation of Indian cricket i.e. Vaibhav Suryavanshi (78 runs, 26 balls, seven sixes, eight fours) and Dhruv Jurel (81 not out, 43 balls, three sixes, eight fours) that the defending champion Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) could not save itself and the Tata Indian Premier League His unbeatable sequence was broken in (IPL-19).

RCB reached 201 with captain Patidar’s half-century.

RCB, forced to bat first after losing the coin toss in the match which started late due to rain, scored a strong score of 201 runs for eight wickets with the help of captain Rajat Patidar’s half-century (63 runs, 40 balls, four sixes, four fours) and sporadic support from other batsmen.

Rajasthan achieved the target with 12 balls remaining

But 15-year-old Suryavanshi, along with Jurel, who was 10 years older than her, showed such an explosive style that the match reached its end with 12 balls remaining and Rajasthan Royals (RR), so far unbeaten in the current season, achieved their fourth consecutive win by scoring 202 runs for four wickets in 18 overs.

In the last match, Bumrah was Vaibhav’s target, this time Hazlewood was the target.

However, Yashasvi Jaiswal (13 runs, eight balls, two sixes), who made a fast start to the innings, became the victim of Josh Hazlewood (2-44) in the second over. But after that, ‘Player of the Match’ Vaibhav along with Jurel defeated the opposition bowlers in such a way that you don’t even have to ask. If seen, Suryavanshi is not hesitating at all in exposing the famous bowlers in this season.

While in the last match he insulted Jasprit Bumrah, this time it was Josh Hazlewood’s turn. It can be easily guessed that in the fourth over, he hit three fours and one six on consecutive balls of this experienced Australian pacer. In the sixth over, Jurel hit 24 runs against Abhinandan Singh including two sixes and three fours.

Vaibhav completes fifty in 15 balls, new record of 97 runs in powerplay

The result of this stormy batting was that Rajasthan’s first 50 runs came in just 23 balls, while Suryavanshi, who broke the runs at a strike rate of 300, equaled his own record by scoring a fifty in just 15 balls with the help of seven fours and four sixes. In this sequence, when the power play ended, 97 runs were left on the board, which was a new record of IPL.

Suryavanshi and Jurel scored 108 runs in just 37 balls.

Ultimately, the stormy century partnership of 108 runs in just 37 balls was broken in the ninth over, when Krunal Pandya (2-30) had Vaibhav caught at long on by Virat Kohli (2-129). However, as soon as Vaibhav returned, who scored his second fifty of the season, the three giants were out with a gain of just five runs in 10 balls.

Jurel made an unbroken partnership of 68 runs with Jadeja in 50 balls.

In these, Simron Hetmyer was returned by Pandya (zero) in the same over, while captain Ryan Parag (three runs) was dismissed by Hazlewood in the next over. But Jurel did not stop and he gave the team the floor with an unbroken partnership of 68 runs in 50 balls with Ravindra Jadeja (24 not out, 25 balls, one four).

Rajasthan’s top order remains intact with fourth consecutive win

Thus, unbeaten Rajasthan Royals have maintained their top position in the points table with maximum eight points from their fourth consecutive win. The interesting thing among these is that they have won three matches on their second home ground (Guwahati) and defeated Gujarat Titans at their home. This is the first defeat for RCB, which had won the first two wins at home (Bengaluru).

The biggest partnership of 45 runs in 17 balls between Kohli and Padikkal

Before this, if we look at RCB’s innings, Joffra Archer (2-33), Ravi Bishnoi (2-32) and their fellow bowlers could not develop even a single half-century partnership. After the return of Phil Salt (0) on the very first ball of Archer in the first over, the biggest partnership of 45 runs was seen between Virat Kohli (32 runs, 16 balls, seven fours) and Devdutt Padikkal (14 runs, seven balls, three fours) in a quick fashion in just 17 balls.

RCB had lost 6 wickets for 94 runs in 11 overs.

But in the third over, when Archer started walking Padikkal, wickets started falling at regular intervals and in the presence of Rajat Patidar, who came at fourth position, at one time the situation was such that six wickets of RCB had fallen for 94 runs in 11 overs.

RCB added 107 runs in the last 54 balls

It was fortunate that Patidar along with Romario Shepherd (22 runs, 11 balls, one six, two fours) and Venkatesh Iyer (29 not out, 15 balls, two sixes, one four) made quick partnerships of 31 and 41 runs, taking the score to 161 and then Iyer and Bhuvneshwar Kumar (nine runs not out, seven balls, one four) took the score to 161 off 17 balls. With the unbroken partnership of 35 runs, the score crossed 200. Overall, RCB added 107 runs in the last 54 balls. Apart from Archer and Bishnoi, Brijesh Sharma also took two wickets.
