0.1 oh, hello, and goodbye! Abhishek goes after it first-ball, and Abhishek bites the dust! Banged in on middle and leg. Nips away a touch and Abhishek hares down the track. Throws the kitchen sink at it but only manages a slice. The ball lobs a mile up and Bishnoi does the rest at deep backward point. Stunned silence in Hyderabad! 0/1

6.5 Head falls, and Parag's ploy to bring himself on has worked a charm! Slowed up on a length just outside leg. Head skips down but is cramped for room. Not to the pitch of the ball either, meaning that he gets no power on his lofted stroke. Chips it down Ferreira's throat, and RR continue to tighten the screws! 55/2

13.2 skewed straight up, and there is a slight collision. Catch taken eventually, though! Back of a length outside off. Kishan has a mow across the line and loses his shape completely. No distance at all on it. The bowler and the keeper both go for it. They bump into each other but Sandeep keeps his palms clasped around the ball. Another marvellous Kishan knock, but he has to go with more than six overs left in the innings! 143/3

15.5 straight to extra cover, and Deshpande's impressive IPL continues! Back of a length and hung up wide outside off. Klaasen has to reach out significantly but in that process, he cannot generate the power or the elevation he wants. Picks out Parag to perfection, and Klaasen is livid with himself as he storms off! 162/4

18.3 nicked and gone! Nitish's party is over, and Archer has another wicket! Seems like a slower ball, bashed into the track outside off. Nitish swings at it with abandon and gets a healthy edge that is gobbled up by Jurel. No celebration from Archer. An air of frustration if anything, and the ground turns silent again! 195/5

19.4 more confusion in the middle, and a run-out has finally occurred! Full toss wide outside off. Arora swings at it and misses. This time, Verma scampers down for the single, only to be sent back. Deshpande receives the throw from his keeper and under-arms it into the stumps, with Verma stranded! 209/6

1.4 plonked to deep backward point, and RR are falling apart like a deck of cards! This is banged half-way down. Gets up very high but Jaiswal still tries to carve it over point. Off the bottom half of the bat and like Pretorius earlier, he could not have picked out the sweeper better. RR in all sorts, and that is probably putting it mildly! 2/4

0.2 goes straight up, and Hinge has outwitted the 15-year-old! What a dream start for Hinge. His first game in the IPL. And he bashes this into the track on middle and leg. Sooryavanshi looks to swipe it over cow corner but the ball gets big on him. Off the top edge and Arora snares the chance with minimal fuss. SRH in dreamland, and Hinge, hailing from Nagpur, has left his mark on the IPL off just his second ball! 1/1

0.4 chopped on, and this is a debut from beyond his wildest dreams! Hinge, who had never bowled in the IPL before, now has two wickets in four balls. Easy game, ain't it? Back of a length outside off. Jurel has a tentative poke at it and the ball cannons off the inside edge into his stumps. Hinge is off on a celebratory run, and RR have been rocked twice in succession! 1/2

0.6 three in the over! Goodness gracious me - you cannot write this script! Hinge has arrived on the IPL scene, and he is making this his stage! Full on the pads. Pretorius looks to help it on its way but he can only find the sweeper at deep backward square leg. Hinge cannot believe what he has just done. This is fantasy and then some. RR three down in the first over, and SRH are all over them like a rash! 1/3

2.6 slashed to slip, and Hinge's day of days keeps getting better! Full, wide and enticing the drive away from the body. Parag cannot fight the urge to have a pop at it and gets a thick outside edge that nestles into slip's palms. Hinge has four. SRH has five. And RR are on the mat! 9/5

15.3 has Jadeja nicked it?! SRH think so but the umpire is unmoved! SRH go upstairs! Shortish just outside off and this zips through. Jadeja shapes for the cut but is cramped for room. There seemed to be a noise in real-time as the ball passed the bat. And UltraEdge confirms it. A clear spike off the toe-end, and Jadeja has to go back to the shed! 129/7

14.6 does him all ends up, and Ferreira is outta here! Beautifully-disguised slower ball, pitching on a back of a length just outside off snd decking in. Ferreira has no clue about it and has an ungainly swipe across the line. Misses it completely and hears the rattling of his stumps soon after. RR six down now! 127/6

16.5 popped tamely to short third, and Sakib's slower ball is causing all sorts of problems! Another dipping delivery, on a fullish length outside off. Archer shapes for the reverse-ramp but has no pace to work with. Simple pop off the bat and Hinge, Sakib's fellow debutant, hands the latter his third wicket! 140/8

18.6 sliced to extra cover, and that will be that for the RR juggernaut! The streak has been broken, and two unheralded, uncapped debutants have brought the Royals crashing down to earth! Full toss on middle and leg. Deshpande has a swing at it and does not get any of it. Kishan is stationed at extra cover to complete the formality, and that is confirmation of a statement win for SRH in front of their fans! 159/10

16.6 this goes a mile up, and Sakib has four too! What a night to be a debutant. What a night to be an SRH fan! Off-pace on a length outside off. Bishnoi goes for broke without gauging what Sakib is doing. A massive miscue and Kishan, running in from extra cover, snaffles it up. RR nine down, and the two debutants (Hinge and Sakib) have combined for eight wickets! 140/9
