SRH vs RCB Live Score: SRH 11/0 (3) – Abhishek, Tripathi give Hyderabad sedate start

Wayne Parnell partners Siraj with the new ball and Tripathi is really struggling to put bat to ball as a pre-meditated scoop nearly missed the stumps. Parnell went wide and finally, the batsman is off the mark with a boundary through the covers.

Top start from Siraj and the bowler has pitched the new ball in the right areas, not providing any width to the batsmen. Abhishek is off the mark with a single but Tripathi is yet to get off the blocks having faced four deliveries.

Right then we are all set for the final game at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium and this should be a cracker of a contest with the visiting side receiving a bit more support than the home side. All in readiness as Abhishek Sharma and Rahul Tripathi will open the innings. With the ball, it will be Mohammed Siraj who will be steaming in at his home ground. Here we go!

Royal Challengers Bangalore wins toss, opts to bowl first vs Sunrisers Hyderabad

“Square boundaries are mid-60s on either side (meters). Curator says this is his favourite wicket of the block and I can see why. It’s absolutely even and there’s not a blade of grass out of place. It’s a little bit on the drier side though. There has been quite a bit of water put into it but with the weather overhead in the last couple of days being so hot, it’s just a bit dry. As you can see there’s a bit of surface cracking but I wouldn’t be too worried about that. Important for openers to cash in against the new ball.”

The all-important toss is coming up in around 20 minutes and the home skipper will hope the coin lands in his favour.

Anuj Rawat, V. Vyshak, Siddarth Kaul, Manoj Bhandage, Shahbaz Ahmed
