It was yet another high-scoring match in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 as Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) chased down Rajasthan Royals’ (RR) target of 229 in Jaipur on April 25 (Saturday). They did so with ease, claiming victory by five wickets with nine balls to spare. RR were sloppy with their catching and, as a result, could not contain the batters, who made the best of their opportunities.
RR sank to a new low as SRH have registered the highest successful chase against them in the IPL.
