SRH vs RR Highlights, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Abhishek, Shahbaz and Klaasen take Hyderabad to final

IPL 2024 highlights, Qualifier 2 SRH vs RR: Abhishek Sharma took two wickets while Shahbaz Ahmed took three as part-timers helped restrict Rajastthan to 139 and win the game by 36 runs for Hyderabad

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) beat Rajasthan Royals (RR) by 36 runs to win Qualifier 2 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 and book a ticket to the final at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). This win on Friday will take SRH to the final on Sunday, May 26. 

Needing 176 to win the match, Rajasthan were pushed to the wall by part-time left-arm spinners Abhishek Sharma and Shabz Ahmed who together in their eight overs gave away just 47 runs and took five wickets to derail the Royals. Dhruv Jurel's fifty was the saving grace for the Men in Pink and Blue. 

Asked to bat first, Hyderabad just could not get going as only Heinrich Klaasen (50), Rahul Tripathi (37) and to an extent Tarvis Head (34) could contribute greatly to take the team to a decent total of 175. For Rajasthan, Trent Boult and Avesh Khan took three wickets each while Sandeep Sharma bowled excellently well to dismiss both Head and Klaasen and finish with figures of 2/25 in his four overs. 

Earlier RR skipper Sanju Samson won the toss and decided to bowl first 

Hyderabad made two changes in their playing 11 with Jaydev Unadkat and Aiden Markram replacing Shahbaz Ahmed and Viyaskanth Vijaykanth. For Rajasthan, there were no changes in their winning playing 11 combinations.

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Hyderabad win by 36 runs, reach finals

 

Over Summary: 0 4 0 0 0 1; RR 139/7 after 20 overs

Trent Boult (0), Dhruv Jurel (56); T Natarajan 3-0-13-1

 

Just a four and two dot balls and then there is a bouncer and another dot ball and the match ends in a tame fashion with just a single as Hyderabad won by 36 runs and moved to the final where they will take on the Kolkata Knight Riders. 

 

11:15 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Fifty for Jurel

 

Over Summary: 4 4 0 0 Wd 1 0; RR 134/7 after 19 overs

Trent Boult (0), Dhruv Jurel (51); Pat Cummins 4-0-30-1

 

That only man who had any plans at all to play the Hyderabad spinners gets to his fifty in style with back-to-back fours. 44 needed off nine balls now. 

 

Dot again. He is just not getting the length to hit a six here. 

 

Review for a wide and it has been called a wide. 42 needed off 7 and that would not be possible on six legal deliveries. Hyderabad are going through here. 

 

11:09 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: 52 needed off 12 to win

 

Over Summary: 0 1 0 W 0 0; RR 124/7 after 18 overs

Trent Boult (0), Dhruv Jurel (42); T Natarajan 2-0-8-1

 

That would be it then. Just a single from the first three balls. Samson would be pulling his hair for opting to bowl first. 

 

Wicket!! Wicket number seven goes Powell gets caught at deep mid-wicket and it is match over for Rajasthan. 

 

11:06 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Natarajan gets Powell

That would be it then. Just a single from the first three balls. Samson would be pulling his hair for opting to bowl first. 

 

Wicket!! Wicket number seven goes Powell gets caught at deep mid-wicket and it is match over for Rajasthan. 

 

11:04 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Jurel hit on the throat

Was that a slower one from Natarajan that went through the grill of Jurel who is down, but gets up immediately? It is a dot ball. It hit him on the throat. 

11:02 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Just 10 off the over after first ball six

 

Over Summary: 1 6 0 1 1 1; RR 123/6 after 17 overs

Rovman Powell (6), Dhruv Jurel (41); Pat Cummins 3-0-20-1

 

Six!! This was a brilliant fielding effort from Rahul Tripathi as he nearly saved six runs, but his feet were just touching the boundary cushions. 

 

After the six only two off the next three balls. Rajasthan need a boundary and they need it right now. It did not come and only 10 off that over. 

 

10:59 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Jurel brilliant

 

Over Summary: 1 0 4 1 1 4; RR 113/6 after 16 overs

Rovman Powell (4), Dhruv Jurel (33); Abhishek Sharma 4-0-24-2

 

This is brilliant batting from Jurel as he hits two fours and gets 11 runs from the over to keep Rajasthan in the game.  

 

10:56 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Jurel doing well

 

Over Summary: 0 0 0 1 4 4; RR 102/6 after 15 overs

Rovman Powell (2), Dhruv Jurel (24); Shahbaz Ahmed 4-0-23-3

 

Three dots in a row to Powell. This is devastating and sad at the same time from Royals. Gets a single off the fourth one. 

 

Four!! Finally, some life in the game as Jurel brings in the reverse sweep and hits a four. 

 

Four!! This is brilliant from Jurel. 

 

10:48 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Abhishek Sharma gets his second, Hetmyer out

 

Over Summary: 0 1 1 W 0 1; RR 93/6 after 14 overs

Rovman Powell (1), Dhruv Jurel (16); Abhishek Sharma 3-0-13-2

 

Hetmyer never looked confident enough to hit a ball as he wasted a full toss at the start of the over and then got bowled. Rajasthan are six down and now only Powell and Jurel can see them through, if they can.  So far, getting 83 off 36  seems almost impossible. 

 

10:44 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Six from Jurel

 

Over Summary: 0 N 0 1 1 1 6; RR 90/5 after 13 overs

Shimron Hetmyer (3), Dhruv Jurel (15); Aiden Markram 1-0-10-0

 

Finally, Jurel brings some life into the game with a six off Markram. Remember there was a no-ball in this over and Hetmyer lost a review on the free-hit trying to review a ball not given wide. 

 

10:42 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Shahbaz Ahmed with double-wicket over

 

Over Summary: W 0 0 W 0 1; RR 80/5 after 12 overs

Shimron Hetmyer (1), Dhruv Jurel (8); Shahbaz Ahmed 3-0-14-3

 

This is as poor batting as it gets as Riyan Parag, being nowhere near the pitch of the ball plays the shot and gets caught in the deep. Next up, Ashiwn gets caught behind and Shahbaz Ahmed changes the game with just one run and two wickets from the 12th over. 

 

10:32 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Just six from the over

 

Over Summary: 1 1 2 2 0 0; RR 79/3 after 11 overs

Riyan Parag (6), Dhruv Jurel (8); Abhishek Sharma 2-0-10-1

 

It is not only the dot balls but the brilliant fielding efforts that is adding up to the pressure on the Royals. Just six off the over despite three boundary shots. 

 

10:30 PM

SRH vs RR LIVE SCORE UPDATES, IPL 2024 Qualifier 2: Just three from the over

 

Over Summary: 0 1 0 0 0 2; RR 73/3 after 10 overs

Riyan Parag (5), Dhruv Jurel (3); Shahbaz Ahmed 2-0-13-1

 

Now two young Indian batters Parag and Jurel are in the middle and they are playing a lot of dot balls as pressure is mounting on them. This is an excellent fielding in the deep from Hyderabad fielders.
