SRH vs RR LIVE Scorecard, IPL 2025 LIVE: SRH Star Takes Stunning Catch As Yashasvi Jaiswal Departs; RR 1 Down vs SRH

SRH vs RR LIVE: Samson goes BANG

6, 4, 4! Sanju Samson is off the mark in style. Breaks loose against Mohammed Shami, RR have piled up 16 in the first over. This is the perfect star, but they need a lot, lot more of this. Simarjeet Singh will bowl the next over, having come on as an Impact Sub.

RR 16/0 (1)

SRH vs RR LIVE: Here comes Samson!

As expected, Sanju Samson has opened the batting with Yashasvi Jaiswal. RR’s original captain enters as the Impact Player. Great start, smashes a 6 off Mohammed Shami in the first over. Pitched short, hooked away for a maximum.

RR 8/0 (0.4)

SRH vs RR LIVE: Samson expected to enter

Sanju Samson is set to bat in the second innings. His captaincy was missed out on the pitch by RR, but can he ease the pain with a fiery knock with the bat? Him and Jaiswal will need to make a bulk of the runs.

SRH vs RR LIVE: Stunning batting

Ishan Kishan was expected to strengthen an already incredible batting lineup, and he’s made his mark straight away. Ignored by India, dropped from central contract, could this be his season to make his way back into national selection? Wow, what a knock.

SRH 286/6 (20)

SRH vs RR LIVE: Deshpande on a hattrick!

Sunrisers Hyderabad are only 9 runs away from the IPL record total, but things have gone a little bit awry here. Two wickets in two balls for Tushar Deshpande in the final over. Aniket Verma and Abhinav Manohar depart in consecutive balls.

SRH 279/6 (19.3)

SRH vs RR LIVE: CENTURY ISHAN KISHAN

ISHAN KISHAN, you beauty! What a stunning century on his debut for SRH. 6, 6, 2 to get to the landmark. A ton in just 45 balls for the stylish left-hander. A knock of high, high class. Rs 11.50 crore, worth its weight in gold.

SRH 273/4 (19)

SRH vs RR LIVE: OUT!

Heinrich Klaasen is gone. Sandeep Sharma strikes in his last over. The South African marauder has done his job, and taken SRH towards that 300-run mark. 34 off 14 balls, job well done. Ishan Kishan now needs his century.

SRH 258/4 (18.2)

SRH vs RR LIVE: Huge unwanted record for Archer

4-0-76-0! Jofra Archer has conceded the most runs ever by a bowler in a single spell in IPL history. Bought for a whopping Rs 12.50 crore by RR, and it has been a disastrous start for the English pacer. 

SRH 256/3 (18)

SRH vs RR LIVE: 4, 4, 4! 250 UP!

250 UP FOR SRH! We still have 15 balls left! Heinrich Klaasen slams three boundaries on the trot, Jofra Archer is being tonked all around the park here. Devastating batting by the men in orange. Sunrisers Hyderabad are here. IPL 2025 favourites.

SRH 251/3 (17.5)

SRH vs RR LIVE: Uh oh, Archer warned

Jofra Archer with a very loose delivery to start the over. Completely loses control of his delivery, ends up bowling a beamer at Ishan Kishan. Warned by the umpire straight away. No-ball called as well.

SRH vs RR LIVE: Can Kishan get his century?

Ishan Kishan is eyeing a stunning century, SRH are gunning for 300. Both are within reach, with three more overs to go. Remember, SRH hold the IPL record total of 287. That is only 54 runs away.

SRH 233/3 (17)

SRH vs RR LIVE: HUGE SIX

Oh dear, that’s sailed into orbit! Sandeep Sharma was bowling an excellent over, but Klaasen has undone all that hard work. 4 runs off the first 4 balls, but then Klaasen is handed one short and wide, and he sends that into the second tier.

SRH vs RR LIVE: 24 balls, 81 needed

300 is definitely not out of the question for SRH. Ishan Kishan is well set, Heinrich Klaasen is one of the best hitters in the game. 81 runs needed in 24 balls to make history. It is a long shot, but certainly possible for this mighty batting lineup.

SRH 219/3 (16)

IPL 2025 LIVE: 4 more! Chance?

Ishan Kishan chips it over the 30-yard-circle, gets 4. Chance for RR there? Stand-in-captain Riyan Parag was at mid-off, and gave a half-hearted jump to try and catch that one. He’s not having a great first game as RR captain.

SRH 214/3 (15.3)

SRH vs RR LIVE: Now reverse sweep!

Ishan Kishan goes for the reverse sweep now, gets 4 more. Everything he’s trying is working out here. Up to 75 now. 12 runs come off the over, but the big wicket of Reddy as well. Theekshana completes his spell – 2/52.

SRH 208/3 (15)

IPL 2025 LIVE: Reddy OUT!

Good full delivery by Theekshana, Nitish Reddy tries a helicopter shot but picks out Yashasvi Jaiswal at mid-wicket. Third wicket down for SRH, but don’t expect the runs to stop! Heinrich Klaasen is up next.

SRH 202/3 (14.3)

SRH vs RR LIVE: 200 up!

TWO HUNDRED for SRH. 14.1 overs. Scintillating display of power-hitting. Nitish Reddy gets a thick outside edge, picks up another boundary. Doesn’t matter who comes in to bowl, they’re travelling for runs and runs aplenty here.

SRH 202/2 (14.2)

IPL 2025 LIVE: 6 more, Reddy

Nitish Reddy says ‘Don’t forget about me’! Length ball by Farooqi, Reddy flicks it over the deep square leg region for six. Slower one by the Afghan pacer, no problem for Reddy whatsover. SRH now on the doorstep of 200.

SRH 192/2 (13.5)

SRH vs RR LIVE: 250 in sight, 6 more!

250 is well in sight for Sunrisers Hyderabad. They have Heinrich Klaasen and Abhinav Manohar to come in next, don’t forget! Ishan Kishan continues the party, meanwhile. SIX MORE! Farooqi under the pump now, first ball back sent to the stands!

SRH 184/2 (13.1)

IPL 2025 LIVE: One more 6!

Ishan Kishan is breaking loose! Hammered once again, over extra cover. This is one flat, but powerful, and goes the distance. Jofra Archer is coming in with express pace and Kishan is using it to perfection.

Kishan up to 59 off 28 now!

SRH 178/2 (13)

SRH vs RR LIVE: 50 for Ishan Kishan!

SIX, SIX! Jofra Archer comes in with pace and bounce and Ishan just helps it over, behind the keeper’s head, all the way. The next one is pumped away over extra cover for another big one. 50 for Ishan Kishan in just 25 balls, celebrates with a flying kiss!

SRH 168/2 (12.2)

SRH vs RR LIVE: Not a bad over

Tushar Deshpande is mixing up his deliveries, bowling some wide outside off-stump, some slower ones, making Ishan Kishan stretch. 9 runs come off the 12th over. SRH still well on top.

SRH 156/2 (12)

SRH vs RR LIVE: 150 up!

150 up for the Sunrisers Hyderabad. It has come at blistering pace. 11.3 overs is all it has taken for the men in orange. Led by Travis Head’s incredible fifty, but Abhishek, Kishan and Reddy have all played their part.

SRH 151/2 (11.3)

IPL 2025 LIVE: Nitish Reddy charging!

Nitish Reddy hammers another one! Short delivery by Jofra Archer, Reddy with a powerful hit over the in-field in the extra cover region. The 21-year-old has made a cracking start, and will now need to shoulder the responsibility with Ishan Kishan, as SRH eye 200+.

SRH vs RR LIVE: Nitish Reddy is in!

Nitish Reddy has been promoted to No. 4 by SRH, and he has started off with a bang. Short delivery by Deshpande, Reddy swats it down the ground. Powerful shot by the all-rounder. 

10 overs done, SRH 135!

SRH 135/2 (10)

IPL 2025 LIVE: HEAD OUT!

TRAVIS HEAD IS GONE! The rampage ends at last. Tushar Deshpande has done the trick. Slower ball, wide outside off stump, Head has to reach out for it. Doesn’t get the connection, sends it straight to Shimron Hetmyer at mid-off. Deshpande is pumped. 

SRH 130/2 (9.3)

SRH vs RR LIVE: 4,000 T20 runs for Head!

Travis Head brings up a big career milestone. 4,000 T20 runs in his career. He’s done it at a stunning strike rate of nearly 150. Gets to the landmark with a big hit of Deshpande, one bounce into the fence. 

SRH vs RR LIVE: Tushar Deshpande into the attack

Tushar Deshpande replaces Nitish Rana. No more overs for the part-time spinner. Deshpande was hugely impressive for CSK in the middle and death overs, but can he deliver for the men in pink? Bought for Rs 6.5 crore in the mega auction.

IPL 2025 LIVE: Decent over by Sandeep

Decent over by the wily old fox Sandeep Sharma. 8 runs come off the 9th over, the best one of the day so far. Travis Head does get a boundary, but Sandeep mixing up his deliveries, putting in some slower ones to keep the Australian guessing.

SRH 123/1 (9)

IPL 2025 LIVE: 50 for Travis Head!

IPL 2025 has begun, and Travis Head has arrived. The mighty Australian starts off the season with a superb half-century. 21-ball 50 for the opener. Rajasthan Royals have been forced to rethink their tactics now, part-timer Nitish Rana handed the ball. 

SRH vs RR LIVE: Ball hits Sandeep on the chest

Yashasvi Jaiswal with a throw from the deep, and it hits bowler Sandeep Sharma in the chest. He had no idea. Jaiswal is quick to apologise, but Sandeep is not happy. Ishan Kishan continues the fun, though, ends the powerplay with a boundary!

SRH 106/1 (7)

SRH vs RR LIVE: 100 up for SRH

100 up for Sunrisers Hyderabad. It has come in just 6.4 overs. Rampage, and then some, dished out by the men in orange. Travis Head is on the verge of a half-century. Abhishek broke loose early on, and Ishan Kishan has continued the run flow.

SRH 101/1 (6.4)

IPL 2025 LIVE: What a start for SRH

We all expected Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head to be demonic this season, but it has started right from Game 1. 94 in the powerplay. A huge warning sent out to the rest of the teams. Can SRH pile up 300 today for the first time ever?

IPL 2025 LIVE: NO BALL!

94 in the powerplay! Theekshana thought he’d ended the over well, but the last ball is a No Ball! Head makes Theekshana pay, picks up another boundary! He is up to 46 off 18 balls, and the fifty is in sight. 

IPL 2025 LIVE: More boundaries! Ishan Kishan!

Can we get 100 runs in the powerplay? Ishan Kishan has started off the 6th over with two boundaries. Four boundaries for him in just 8 balls left. Now Head will conclude the powerplay.

SRH 87/1 (5.3)

SRH vs RR LIVE: Travis Head BANG!

4, 6, dot, 4, wide, 4, 4, 4! 23 OFF THE OVER! Travis Head is on fire! Did you expect anything else? Jofra Archer into the attack, and Head is having him for breakfast, lunch and dinner. 33 now off just 13 balls. SRH are up to 74 already!

IPL 2025 LIVE: 4, 4! Ishan Kishan joins the fun

Ishan Kishan is now making an impact! The left-hander has come in at No. 3, and has picked up two more boundaries off Theekshana. Looks like there is just one message from the SRH dressing room: go and hit!

SRH 55/1 (4)

SRH vs RR LIVE: ABHISHEK OUT!

OUT! Massive wicket for Rajasthan Royals! Abhishek Sharma departs in the powerplay! Maheesh Theekshana strikes, and RR’s tactic to deploy a spinner in the powerplay has worked! Cuts, finds the fielder at cover.

SRH 45/1 (3.1)
