Rajasthan Royals bowler Trent Boult once again delivered a double-wicket maiden as he dismissed Delhi Capitals' Prithvi Shaw and Manish Pandey off successive balls. This is the second time in three matches that Boult has bowled a double-wicket maiden in IPL 2023.

Chasing a target of 200, DC subbed in Prithvi Shaw for Khaleel Ahmed as Impact Player but Shaw failed to score a single run and was caught by RR skipper Samson behind the wicket. The catch itself was a blinder and with the latest failure, Shaw is now under a lot of pressure to come good. Have a look at his wicket here:

Manish Pandey came to the crease to replace Shaw and lasted just one ball as Boult trapped him LBW. DC skipper Warner, however, cajoled Pandey into taking a review but to no use. The next batsman, Rilee Rossouw, was dismissed almost too as the ball just moved past his outside edge.

Rossouw played the last ball from Boult with much deserved respect as the bowler walked away after putting his team on top. Earlier, DC won the toss and put Rajasthan in to bat first. The decision from Warner proved to be wrong instantly as Royals opener Yashasvi Jaiswal ripped apart DC's Khaleel Ahmed for five fours in the first over itself.

Jaiswal's opening partner Buttler too joined the party in the second over as he smashed Capitals' South African pacer Anrich Nortje for three fours in the over, taking Rajasthan to 32 in two overs with all runs coming in boundaries - eight to be precise. Both Jaiswal and Buttler scored a fifty each - 60 off 31 and 79 off 51, respectively.

Apart from the openers, Shimron Hetmyer played a nice cameo of 39 not out off 21 as Rajasthan finished 199/4 in their 20 overs. For DC, Mukesh Kumar took wickets while Rovman Powell and spinner Kuldeep Yadav chipped in with one each.

IPL 2023: RR's Samson takes SCREMAER to dismiss DC's Shaw as Boult bowls double-wicket maiden again - WATCH

England's Jos Buttler hit a scintillating half-century to help the Rajasthan Royals hammer Sunrisers Hyderabad by 72 runs in their opening match of the Indian Premier League on Sunday. Buttler's 22-ball 54 led the team's batting onslaught as they posted 203-5, and then their bowlers restricted hosts Hyderabad to 131-8 in the first match of the day.

Leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal returned figures of 4-17 after pace spearhead Trent Boult struck twice in his first over.

Buttler and his opening partner Yashasvi Jaiswal -- who also made 54 -- had provided an explosive start to last year's runners-up and the inaugural&nbsp;IPL&nbsp;champions.

Skipper Sanju Samson also joined in the charge with his powerful 55 before he departed in the 19th over and Shimron Hetmyer finished off the innings with his unbeaten 22.

Buttler was the leading batsman in the last&nbsp;IPL&nbsp;season with 863 runs including four centuries, and he then led England to a T20 World Cup triumph in 2022.

He reached his fifty in 20 balls before being bowled by Afghanistan left-arm pace bowler Fazalhaq Farooqui inside the sixth over.

Samson soon took charge then with Jaiswal for company as they piled on the runs.

Hyderabad were never in the chase after Boult bowled Abhishek Sharma for a duck and then Jason Holder clung on to a superb catch at slip to send back Rahul Tripathi.

Wickets kept tumbling, including Harry Brook (13) and Glenn Phillips (8). Getting in big-hitter Abdul Samad as an "impact player" only reduced the margin of loss as he hit an unbeaten 32.

The impact player, who can only be an Indian unless the team has fewer than four overseas players in their XI, is chosen from one of five substitutes listed with the team.

IPL 2023: Openers, Chahal four-for help Rajasthan Royals rout Sunrisers Hyderabad by 72 runs

Sunrisers Hyderabad and India pacer Umran Malik, who has already made a name for himself with his express speed, showed his skills once again in the match against Rajasthan Royals. In match four of the IPL 2023, on April 2, Umran delivered a corker of a ball to shatter the stumps of Royals' Devdutt Padikkal.

Umran charged in fast and bowled a good-length ball at 149 km/h and beat Paddikal by pace and hit bulls-eye on the middle-off stump, uprooting them.

Paddikal also acknowledged the quality of ball on a pitch where batsmen murdered the bowlers at will. Have a look at the wicket here:

Earlier, Sunrisers Hyderabad won the toss and asked Royals to bat. Rajasthan, however, made SRH pay for their decision as they reached their highest score ever in the powerplay for the loss of a single wicket. Openers Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal took the SRH bowlers to cleaners, scoring 85 in 5.4 overs, before Buttler got out on the fifth ball. He scored a blistering 22-ball 54 before going back.

Skipper Sanju Samson came in next and played in the similar fashion, adding 54 runs for the second wicket with Jaiswal. The second wicket, Jaiswal, fell in the thirteenth over after scoring 37-ball 54. A bit of brakes hit Royals innings after Umran knocked Paddikal with a peach but Samson kept going at the other end, scoring 32-ball 55.

By the time Samson went back in the 19th over, Rajasthan were sitting pretty at 187/5. Shimron Hetmyer then played a cameo of 16-bll 22 in the final overs to take Rajasthan past 200.&nbsp;

For Sunrisers, Fazalhaq Farooqi and T Natarajan picked two wickets each but were expensive. Umran Malik was only other to take a wicket as Rajasthan finished their innings at 203/5.
