In IPL Cricket, Rajasthan Royals extended their winning streak, registering a fourth consecutive victory with a six-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati last night. Chasing a victory target of 202 runs, Rajasthan Royals produced a clinical chase, reaching the target comfortably in 18 overs for the loss of four wickets. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was declared Player of the Match.

Opting to bat first, Royal Challengers Bengaluru scored 201 runs, losing 8 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs. Rajasthan Royals have won the toss and have opted to field. Today, Punjab Kings will face Sunrisers Hyderabad at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, New Chandigarh. The match is scheduled to begin at 3:30 PM. In another match, Chennai Super Kings will take on Delhi Capitals at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai this evening. The match is scheduled to begin at 7:30 PM.

Just two teams remain unbeaten this season now – RR and PBKS. RCB came into the game high on confidence but were blown away by the sheer audacity of the 15-year-old at the top of the order. RR have started superbly this year, winning 4 in a row. Time to call them as favorites for this year’s title? Let’s wait and watch. Tomorrow is a Saturday and that means only one thing in the IPL – double-header time. We will be there nice and early. And it’s time to bounce here as I, Nikhil Jadhav,

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi | Player of the Match (translated from Hindi): (are you going to cut a cake tonight?) No, no sir, it’s not like that. Today we have to sleep a little early because we have to leave early tomorrow, we have an early flight, so we have to leave early. (on batting without fear) No sir, it’s not like that,

I just try to do what I do in practice, do the same, don’t try anything extra and back my natural game. (on having no fear against Bumrah and Hazlewood) At the back of the mind it stays that who is bowling, but I was trying to play the ball, not look at the bowler, and play the ball according to what it is, play my game. (who all are guiding you right now?) Sir, papa is one and also my coaches, here my guardian is Romi sir.

So all these people keep telling me that the journey is very long, this has just started, so you have to focus on your process and your work, you have to focus on the game without looking here and there. (on showing disappointment after getting out) Sir, if I stay on the wicket, then another 10-20 runs can be made, if we are chasing the target, then we can finish it two overs earlier, or if we set the target, then 10-20 runs can be made more. So I regret that if I am out by playing a loose shot, then the team is going minus, so I just get a little upset that I could have played longer
