Pant and KL Rahul are young leaders. They still have a lot of catching up to do. While Rahul’s captaincy acumen has come under a lot of scrutiny – especially when he was captaining Punjab Kings, and also during India’s recent tour to South Africa – Pant led Delhi Capitals to third place in the 2021 IPL.
Ahead of the all-important IPL mega auction, SunRisers Hyderabad decided to retain three players -- Kane Williamson, Abdul Samad and Umran Malik -- raising a few eyebrows with their choice of retentions. The team let go of superstars like David Warner, Jonny Bairstow, Rashid Khan and Jason Holder to name a few. They then went on to splash Rs 6.5 crore on Abhishek Sharma, a player who had been with the franchise. While their decision to put faith in youngsters under the leadership of New Zealand's premier batter was applauded by many, it is yet to bear fruit in IPL 2022.
Lucknow Super Giants' (LSG) pacer Avesh Khan provided his team breakthroughs in both the powerplay as well as in the death overs to deny 2016 champions Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) any chances of a comeback here on Tuesday. It eventually scripted Lucknow's 12-run win in the IPL 2022 match at the DY Patil Stadium. LSG scored 169/7 and went on to successfully defend the target, thanks to Khan's bowling spell (4 for 24). "Effort was to give wickets to the team because that's what the team wants from me. I wanted to take wickets in powerplay phase and slog-overs phase," said Khan at the post-match presentation ceremony.

IPL 2022 Live Score Updates Between Sunrisers and Super Giants:SunRisers Hyderabad will look to register their first win of the tournament when they step out to the field against Lucknow Super Giants at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Mumbai. SunRisers had last suffered a defeat against Rajasthan Royals while Lucknow Super Giants enter the contest having won their previous game against defending champions Chennai Super Kings. Hyderabad had conceded more than 200 runs against Rajasthan and the bowlers delivered quite a few no-balls. Then batters disappointed for Hyderabad and only Aiden Markram and Washington Sundar were the bright spots with the bat. On the other hand, Lucknow chased 211 against CSK and they have momentum with them. (LIVE SCORECARD)
Jos Buttler was in fantastic form during his knock for Rajasthan Royals (RR) against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their IPL 2022 campaign opener at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune, on Tuesday. The opener slammed 35 runs off 28 balls, which consisted of three fours and three sixes. Particularly in the second delivery of the fourth over, Buttler received special applause from SRH's Abdul Samad. The wicketkeeper-batter received a length delivery from Umran Malik and he straightaway ramped it over the opposition keeper, and it cleared the boundary for a maximum.
Rajasthan first team to defend total in this IPL after SRH horror show chasing 211Rajasthan Royals couldn't have asked for a better start to their campaign in IPL 2022. After a batting carnage led by skipper Sanju Samson (55; 27b, 4x3, 6x3) took them to the confines of 210 for six at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Tuesday, they dished out an impeccable bowling effort to carve out a 61-run victory. AS IT HAPPENED | SCORECARD | POINTS TABLEJust as the wayward Sunrisers Hyderabad attack allowed the Royals to run away with the match, their batsmen floundered in the wake of excellent bowling first up by Trent Boult and Prasidh Krishna, whose fourth over wicket maiden, clearly killed the contest as the Sunrisers were restricted to 149/7, thanks in the main to the 55-run seventh wicket stand between Aiden Markram (57; 41b, 4x5, 6x2) and Washington Sundar (40, 14b, 4x5, 6x2). Prasidh's Karnataka teammate Devdutt Padikkal (41; 29b, 4x4, 6x2), who was equally effective with the willow earlier, was ready for the opportunity at slip after Samson spilled a Kane Williamson catch and Rahul Tripathi was undone soon as Sunrisers got off to a poor start made worse by Nicholas Pooran failing to bother the scorers.
Rajasthan Royals started their Indian Premier League campaign with a thumping 61-run victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad in Pune on Tuesday.
