Explosive Start, Then a Collapse

Rajasthan started their chase of 230 with a bang, thanks to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. He even hit the very first ball from Mohammed Siraj for a six and didn't spare Kagiso Rabada either. But after reaching 38 runs in just 2.5 overs, the wickets started to fall. Siraj got the first breakthrough, dismissing Vaibhav for 36 off 16 balls with a bouncer.

Soon after, Yashasvi Jaiswal, who was captaining the team instead of Riyan Parag, was out for just 3 runs, caught off a short ball from Rabada. Shimron Hetmyer (6) also fell to the same short-ball trap by Rabada. Then, Rashid Khan completely broke the back of Rajasthan's batting. He sent Dhruv Jurel, Ravindra Jadeja, Donovan Ferreira (4), and Shubham Dubey (15) back to the pavilion. Jason Holder then cleaned up the tail, dismissing Dasun Shanaka (16), Jofra Archer (5), and Tushar Deshpande (1) to end the match.
