<p>Rajasthan Royals (RR) thrashed Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by 61 runs in their opening game of the ongoing Indian Premier League 2022 season to get their campaign off to a winning start. The Royals produced a sensational batting effort as they posted a huge total of 210 runs on the board, batting first at the MCA Stadium in Pune before restricting SRH on 149/7 to clinch a comfortable win.</p>

<p>SRH skipper Kane Williamson had won the toss and opted to bowl first, a decision which backfired immensely as Sanju Samson &amp; Co. took the SRH bowling attack to the cleaners. After a brilliant opening stand of 58 runs between openers Jos Buttler (35) and Yashasvi Jaiswal, skipper Samson took charge and played some sensations shots across the ground.</p>

<p>Samson looked unstoppable as he notched up a quickfire 55 off 27 balls laced with three fours and five sixes. Devdutt Paddikal (41) and Shimron Hetmyer (32) also played crucial cameos as RR didn't take the foot off the peddle and went on to post a big total.</p>

<p>Trent Boult and Prasidh Krishna were the picks&nbsp;of the bowlers for RR as the duo combined to run through the SRH top-order. Both Boult and Krishna picked up a couple of wickets apiece while leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal bagged a three-wicket haul to ensure SRH never had a chance in the run-chase.</p>

Updated IPL 2022 points table after Rajasthan Royals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad clash

<p>A new-look and re-energised Rajasthan Royals attacked from the outset and inflicted on Sunrisers Hyderabad a 61-run hammering to begin their campaign in IPL-15 on a rousing note here on Tuesday.</p>

<p>RR got the better of SRH in every department after skipper Sanju Samson led from the front with a scintillating 27-ball 55 to power his team to an imposing 210 for six.</p>

<p>Smarting from the pounding in the first half of their opening fixture, SRH failed to pose any serious threat to RR after a disastrous start to their innings, which saw them slip to 9/3 and then 29/4.</p>

<p>In the end, Kane Williamson's (2) team was stopped at 149 for seven, with the captain himself enduring a bad day in office.</p>

<p>SRH wouldn't have got even that many had it not been for Aiden Markram's unbeaten 57 and Washington Sundar's 14-ball 40, the latter somewhat making up with the willow after his forgettable outing with the ball.</p>

<p>SRH's top-order batting was in stark contrast to Samson and Devdutt Padikkal (41 off 29 balls; 4x4; 6x2), who added 73 runs for the third wicket off 41 balls, before Shimron Hetmyer used his brute power to clobber 32 in only 13 deliveries and take RR past 200.</p>

<p>Samson's six-hitting prowess was on display as he struck five maximums and three boundaries, sparing no bowler during his entertaining stay in the middle.</p>

<p>Later Hetymar smashed three sixes to pile on SRH's misery. A clinical show by the bowlers, led by leg-spinner Yuzvedra Chahal (3/22 in 4 overs), then completed the task for RR.</p>

<p>Chasing an improbable 211, Sunrisers lost key batter Williamson after a diving catch by Padikkal before Rahul Tripathi (0) became Prasidh Krishna's second victim of the day. It became 9/3 as Trent Boult trapped Nicolas Pooran (0) in front of the wicket.</p>

<p>To make matters worse, Chahal removed two more batters in Abhishek Sharma and Abdul Samad in quick succession, as Sunrisers lost half their side for 37 runs and stared at a heavy defeat.</p>

<p>But Markram, Romario Shepherd (24) and Sundar, who got 24 runs in the 17th over, delayed the inevitable and reduced the margin of defeat.</p>

<p>During the final over, pacer Nathan Coulter-Nile injured himself while landing and was taken off. Put into bat, Royals opener Jos Buttler got a life on zero courtesy a no ball. Buttler (35) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (20) then gave the side a flying start, adding 58 runs to lay the foundation for a big total.</p>

<p>Buttler was brutal on Umran Malik, hammering him for two fours and two maximums in the fourth over, as RR collected 21 runs.</p>

<p>The two openers then struck a six each off Sundar (0/47) in the next over as RR raced to 52 for no loss in five overs.<br />
Jaiswal however perished in the seventh over, holing out to Markram off Shepherd. While Buttler, who hit three fours and as many sixes, was dismissed at the start of the ninth over as RR slipped to 75 for two.</p>

<p>Showing intent straightaway, Samson started with a four and a six over long-off and hit another maximum over fine-leg, taking on the SRH attack with gusto.</p>

<p>While Samson found the fence at will, Padikkal too got into the groove and began attacking in the 12th over when he pulled T Natarajan for a maximum.</p>

<p>Samson was again brutal on Sundar, striking him for two successive sixes in the 16th over as RR marched on.<br />
SRH removed Paddikkal and Samson in quick succession, but a lot of damage had been done by then, before Hetmyer compounded the bowling team's woes with his massive hits as RR scored 123 runs in the back 10.</p>

IPL 2022: Sanju Samson, Prasidh Krishna star as Rajasthan Royals thrash Sunrisers Hyderabad by 61 runs

<p>Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)&nbsp;got off to the worst possible start in their run-chase against Rajasthan Royals (RR) in match number five of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Tuesday (March 29). SRH lost their skipper Kane Williamson cheaply on just 2 off 7 balls in the second over after a controversial decision from the third umpire.</p>

<p>After Rajasthan Royals posted a huge total of 210 runs on the board riding on brilliant knocks from their captain Sanju Samson (55), Devdutt Padikkal (41) and Shimron Hetmyer (31), SRH were looking to get off to a flyer in the run-chase. However, SRH were left reeling on 9/3 inside 4 overs in the Powerplay after losing three wickets in quick succession.</p>

<p>Indian pacer Prasidh Krishna drew the first blood for RR in the second over when he managed to get a nick off Williamson's bat which flew straight towards RR wicket-keeper Samson. Samson failed to pluck the catch as the ball slipped out of his gloves before being caught by Padikkal at slips.</p>

<p>However, the on-field umpires referred to the third umpire to review the catch and the replays clearly showed that the ball had touched the ground before going into Padiikkal's hands. But to everyone's shock, the third umpire gave the decision in the bowling team's favour as Williamson was asked to head back to the pavilion.</p>

<p>The third umpire's decision left many irked on social media as fans lashed out at the third umpire terming the decision a 'horrible' one. Check out some of the reactions -</p>

IPL 2022: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals - Head to head record, trivia, stats and squads

<p>Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will be looking to start afresh when they lock horns with Rajasthan Royals (RR) in their opening game of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Tuesday (March 29). Sunrisers Hyderabad had a disappointing campaign in IPL 2021 last year as they finished at the bottom of the table after managing only three wins in their 14 league matches.</p>

<p>SRH had sacked David Warner as their captain midway through their campaign in IPL 2021 before appointing Kane Williamson as their permanent skipper. Warner was released by the franchise along with ace spinner Rashid Khan as SRH retained only three players ahead of the IPL 2022 mega auction last month. They retained Williamson along with two uncapped Indian talents - Umran Malik and Abdul Samad to build a squad from the scratch.</p>

<p>SRH spent big at the mega auction and roped in some big names like Nicholas Pooran, Marco Jansen, Aiden Markram and Romario Shepherd among others. They also bought back their pace duo of the experienced Bhuvneshwar Kumar and yorker specialist T Natarajan.</p>

<p>The one-time champions further bolstered their squad by also roping in the likes of Washington Sundar, Rahul Tripathi and Kartik Tyagi among others, who are all expected to play a key role for the franchise this season. While Tripathi is likely to open the batting with Williamson, Sundar will strengthen the middle-order.</p>

<p>SRH also paid big for uncapped Indian all-rounder Abhishek Sharma, who can be destructive with the bat on his day and can also be handy with the ball. He is one of the strong contenders to open the batting with skipper Williamson but SRH might opt for Tripathi to bat at the top with Sharma in the middle order. Pooran and Markram can take the no.3 and 4 spot respectively followed by Sharma and Samad as finishers.</p>

<p>Sundar in the lower-middle order will allow SRH to bat deep and have a solid depth in their bowling department. Romario Shepherd can be the other&nbsp;all-rounder in the side and a lot will depend on his form with the bat. Bhuvneshwar is expected to spearhead the pace attack consisting of T Natarajan and Kartik Tyagi. Though Malik was one of the payers retained by SRH, he might have to wait for his chances.</p>

IPL 2022: From injuries to national team commitments - Player availability for all teams

<p>Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) pacer T Natarajan has been breathing fire in the nets ahead of the start of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. Natarajan, who recently recovered from an injury, has joined the team's training session and is looking forward to doing well in the upcoming season. Natarajan was bought by SRH for a sum of Rs 4 crore (INR 40 million) after being released last year.</p>

<p>The left-arm pacer had missed the majority of IPL 2021 last year due to a knee injury. He later underwent surgery for the same and will be making his comeback in IPL 2022. Natarajan managed to ply only two games for SRH last season where he picked up two wickets before being sidelined. He will be looking to make a strong comeback for the side this year.</p>

<p>On Sunday, Sunrisers Hyderabad shared a clip of Natrajan bowling in the nets ahead of the new season. The left-arm pacer can be seen breaking a stump into two with one of his fiery deliveries in the nets. “When he isn't crushing your toes, he's breaking the stumps down," SRH captioned the post while sharing the video.</p>

T Natarajan breaks a stump into two as Sunrisers Hyderabad pacer breathes fire ahead of IPL 2022 - WATCH

<p>Indian all-rounder Washington Sundar has joined the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) camp ahead of the start of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. Sundar was roped in by SRH for a sum of Rs 8.75 crore (INR 87.5 million) at the IPL 2022 mega auction last month. Sundar is expected to be one of the key players for the Kane Williamson-led side in the upcoming season.</p>

<p>In a video shared by SRH on their social media handles, Sundar was welcomed by his SRH and Tamil Nadu teammate T Natarajan. Natarajan also put the spin all-rounder in a spot by asking him a cheeky question. The left-arm pacer asked Sundar if he was missing his former side Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)?</p>

<p>Sundar, who had joined RCB in 2018, spent four seasons with the franchise before being released last year. He was later picked by SRH in the auction. Having spent four years at RCB, the franchise probably holds a special place in Sundar's heart. However, the Indian all-rounder came up with a hilarious response when asked if SRH was better than RCB.</p>

<p>'It's your first time with Sunrisers Hyderabad. All these years you were with RCB. So do you miss RCB of is this better?" - Natarajan can be heard asking Sundar. "This is very good," Sundar responds before the duo breaks into laughter.</p>

<p>Former Australian cricketer Simon Katich has decided to resign from the post of assistant coach of Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) just days after the conclusion of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 mega auction. Katich reportedly decided to quit after the franchise ignored his pre-auction plans and decided to against it at the mega auction which took place in Bengaluru last week.</p>

<p>As per a report in <em>The Australian</em>, Katich's resignation came after Sunrisers Hyderabad went against his pre-auction plans. The report also adds that Katich was not happy with the way the franchise has been managed of late which is&nbsp;also one of the reasons behind his exit.</p>

<p>Sunrisers Hyderabad were in the news for all the wrong reasons last season after the franchise decided to sack David Warner from captaincy midway through the campaign and benched him for the remainder of the season. SRH was heavily criticised for their treatment of Warner, who remains an IPL great and is the first and only captain to have led the franchise to an IPL title.</p>

<p>Since the past year, SRH have had a major Australian exodus from the franchise with Warner leading the way. Apart from the former captain, the likes of Trevor Bayliss and Brad Haddin also left coaching roles in the team. Former Australian cricketer Tom Moody continues to serve as the head coach of the side.</p>

<p>Moody was present at the table for SRH along with the likes of Katich and&nbsp;Kaviya Maran, who is the CEO of the franchise. SRH spent big money on roping in the likes of Nicholas Pooran, Washington Sundar, Rahul Tripathi and Romario Shepherd at the IPL 2022 mega auction.</p>

Pre-auction plans ignored? Here's why Simon Katich resigned as SRH's assistant coach ahead of IPL 2022

<p>In the IPL 2021 final, the MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) faced two-time winners Eoin Morgan-led Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). In the summit clash, the Yellow Army rode on Faf du Plessis' 86, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Moeen Ali's cameos and Shardul Thakur-Josh Hazlewood's contributions with the ball to beat KKR by 27 runs, in defence of 193.</p>

<p>Talking about the KKR outfit, they were off to a forgettable start in the first leg of IPL 2021, in India. Being in the bottom-half, they revamped in style when the second and final leg kicked off in the UAE. Morgan &amp; Co. rode on Venkatesh Iyer, Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi, Varun Chakravarthy and few others to enter the finale, where they eventually lost to the Chennai-based franchise.</p>

<p>Recalling the finale, Tripathi -- who has now been sold to the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the IPL 2022 mega auction -- shared the chat he had with Dhoni after the game.</p>

<p>“I had a hamstring injury and therefore, I came in lower down the order. I couldn’t score runs (2), I was really struggling to run between the wickets. After I got out, Mahi bhai tapped on my back and said: “Koi nai, aj tumhara day nahi tha, But tune hundred percent try kiya”(It wasn’t your day, but you gave your hundred percent). I was feeling very down since we lost the final, but Mahi bhai came after the game also and spoke to me for a minute or so," Tripathi told&nbsp;<i>News18.</i></p>

<p>“I still remember when I was on my IPL debut, he (Dhoni) came and said, “jaise nets me khel rahe ho, bilkul waise hi khelo” (Play as you play in nets). He treats every player as his younger brother. He guided me throughout the tournament in 2017. Sometimes he scolded me as well. ‘Push hard….do this’. Like when I was playing for Rajasthan Royals and KKR, I used to consult him whenever I got time. “Kya kar rahe ho,”(What are you doing these days) he always used to ask me,” said the 30-year-old.</p>

<p>At the recently-concluded mega auction, Tripathi made heads turn with as many as three franchises joining a bidding war for him.

Sunrisers Hyderabad complete squad for IPL 2022: Pooran, Markram and Jansen among top signings for SRH

<p>Sri Lanka all-rounder Wanindu Hasarange drew quite a lot of bid in the ongoing IPL 2022 mega auction on Saturday (February 12). In the all-rounder's category, Hasaranga's name attracted many franchises as Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) competed for him before his former team Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) joined the race as the bidding war intensified.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Eventually, the Sri Lankan spin-bowling all-rounder went back to the Virat Kohli-Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)&nbsp;for a whopping INR 107.5 million (INR 10.75 crore) on Day 1 of the opening proceedings. The Sri Lankan's bid was interrupted in a freakish manner as auctioneer&nbsp;Hugh Edmeades led to a sudden halt to proceedings. It was a physical fall for Edmeades, which led to a stoppage in action&nbsp;as lunch break was taken.&nbsp;The auctioneer has been replaced by broadcaster Charu Sharma for the remainder of the opening day.</p>

<p>Coming back to Hasaranga, the Islander had a memorable run in the previous calendar year, accounting for most wickets in the shortest format in 2021 (36) and also contributing with vital runs down the order in limited-overs. The 24-year-old, who is the No. 1 ranked T20I bowler, had represented the Virat Kohli-starrer RCB franchise in the second and final leg of IPL 14.

IPL 2022 mega auction: No. 1 T20I bowler Wanindu Hasaranga bought by Kohli-starrer RCB for Rs 10.75 crore

<p>The IPL 2022 mega auction has started with a bang. The first slot featured the marquee players, such as David Warner, Shikhar Dhawan, Kagiso Rabada, Trent Boult, etc. Rajasthan Royals -- the winners of the inaugural season -- came into the mega auction with INR 620 million and have roped in the likes of R Ashwin (INR 50 million) and Trent Boult (INR 80&nbsp;million) whereas David Warner has rejoined his first-ever IPL franchise, i.e. Delhi Capitals (DC), for INR 62.5 million.</p>

<p>Warner, who represented the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) from 2014-2021, wasn't retained by the Orange Army ahead of the mega auction proceedings in Bengaluru. His fallout with the SRH team management was a big talking point in the previous season and, hence, Delhi made the most of it to re-buy the Aussie left-hander. Warner is the fifth-highest run-getter in IPL history, with 5,449 runs at 41.59 along with a strike-rate of&nbsp;139.96. He had earlier represented the Delhi camp -- when they were known as the Delhi Daredevils (DD) -- from 2009 to 2013.</p>

<p>Ashwin, on the other hand, has found a new base. Starting from Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to captaining the Punjab Kings (PBKS) and moving to the DC camp, Ashwin will now represent the RR camp. Meanwhile, Boult -- who played a key role in Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians' (MI) title-win in 2020 season -- has also joined Ashwin in the RR setup.</p>

<p>Both Ashwin and Boult will look to assist the young RR captain Sanju Samson in the IPL 2022 edition, to be held in India in March-May. Ashwin has 145 scalps whereas the New Zealander has accounted for 76 wickets in 62 IPL games.</p>

IPL 2022 mega auction: David Warner goes back to DC, Trent Boult and R Ashwin shift base to RR

<p>David Warner had a horrible IPL 2021 edition. Starting the season as the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) captain, the swashbuckling left-hander struggles for runs -- at an ordinary strike-rate -- whereas the Orange Army's string of losses led to his sacking halfway in the season.</p>

<p>When IPL 14 resumed with the final leg in the UAE, Warner got only a handful of chances before his failures led to his omission. Since then, he never managed to return to the playing XI before being released by the one-time winners ahead of the mega auction for IPL 2022.</p>

<p>Recalling his SRH omission, Warner told while speaking to Boria Majumdar, "If you are going to drop a captain and then not pick him in the team after what he has done, what message does that send to the young kids in the team? What message does that send to the rest of the group? What hurt me the most is that the other guys are now thinking, ‘oh, this could happen to me."</p>

<p>“At the end of the day, whatever happens, cop it cop it on the chin. If you want to have those conversations, just have them. It’s not hard. Don’t shy away from them. I am not going to bite. I am going to sit here and accept that for what it is because you are not picking me in the team."</p>

<p>For the unversed, Warner was a daunting force for the SRH franchise after joining them in 2014. Since 2014, the Aussie opener amassed over 500 runs every season for the franchise before having a forgettable run in IPL 2021 (with only 195 runs in 8 games).

'What message does that send?' - David Warner recalls his SRH omission, makes glaring remark

"Introducing the new management/support staff of SRH for #IPL2022! Orange Army, we are #ReadyTo"ise!," read the franchise's tweet on Thursday.<br />
<br />
This will be Steyn's first coaching stint after retiring from all forms of cricket in August this year. He had made his commentary debut during the men's T20 World Cup in the UAE and Oman in October and November.<br />
<br />
Regarded as one of the greatest fast bowlers of all time, Steyn picked 439 wickets in 93 Tests at an average of 22.95 apart from picking 196 wickets in 125 ODIs and 64 wickets in 47 T20Is. Steyn, who has played 95 IPL matches while representing the now-defunct Deccan Chargers, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Gujarat Lions, and Royal Challengers Bangalore, took 97 wickets in the league.<br />

Just like Steyn, this will be Lara's first coaching stint in T20 franchise cricket.

He scored 11,953 runs in 131 Test matches at an average of 52.88, including 34 centuries, 9 double-centuries, and 48 half-centuries.<br />
<br />
He holds the record for highest individual score in first-class cricket (501 vs Durham in 1994) as well as the highest individual score in Test cricket (an unbeaten 400 against England in 2004).

Katich, who represented Australia in 56 Tests, 45 ODIs and 3 T20Is, had been an assistant coach for Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL from 2016 to 2019 before moving to RCB as their head coach until August 2021.</p>

IPL 2022: Sunrisers Hyderabad include Dale Steyn, Brian Lara and other big names in coaching setup

<p>Australian star batter David Warner has hinted at entering the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) mega auction ahead of the 2022 season after being released by Surisers Hyderabad (SRH). Warner had a fall out with SRH during IPL 2021 which culminated in his exit from the franchise as they decided to retain skipper Kane Williamson, and uncapped players Abdul Samad and Umran Malik.</p>

<p>Warner has been one of the best overseas batters in the IPL over the years and has notched up runs consistently one season after another. He is currently the top run-getter among overseas batters and the 5th highest run-getter overall in the history of IPL with 5449 runs from 150 matches at a stunning average of over 41.</p>

<p>The Aussie batter is also coming off a brilliant campaign for Australia in the recently-concluded T20 World Cup 2021 where he had notched up 289 runs in seven matches to bag the Player of the Tournament award. Considering his experience and recent form, Warner was expected to be picked by one of the two new IPL teams - Ahmedabad and Lucknow - who are both allowed to pick a maximum of three players from the pool of non-retained players ahead of the mega auction.</p>

<p>The two new teams can retain a maximum of two Indians and one overseas player. However, Warner has hinted that he will not be joining any of the two new teams and is likely to head into the mega auction. Replying to a fan on Instagram, he hinted at entering the upcoming auction.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Warner was sacked from captaincy by SRH midway through the IPL 2021 season after a poor start by the team in the first leg of the tournament. He was later dropped completely from the playing XI after the first game of the second leg of the season in the UAE and managed to make only eight appearances for the team.</p>

'Auction I guess': David Warner unlikely to be picked by two new IPL teams, hints at entering mega auction

<p>David Warner's fall-out with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 had sent shockwaves around the cricket fraternity. Warner was sacked from captaincy before being dropped from the playing XI as he endured one of his worst seasons in the IPL.</p>

<p>The star Australian batter has been released by SRH and questions are still being raised over the treatment handed out to him by the franchise. SRH are facing criticism from all quarters after their decision to retain captain Kane Williamson, and uncapped players - Umran Malik and Abdul Samad, while letting go of the likes of Warner and Rashid Khan.</p>

<p>Warner and Rashid have been two of the best players in the shortest format over the last few years and have been consistent performers for SRH ever since joining the franchise. While Warner's departure wouldn't have come as a surprise to many, SRH not retaining Rashid left many baffled.</p>

<p>With SRH still being criticised for not treating Warner well during his last season with the team, former India pacer Irfan Pathan has come up with a cryptic tweet on the saga. Pathan took to Twitter to state that SRH is the same franchise that had supported Warner when his country had banned him from playing cricket.</p>

<p>"Ppl who is questioning a franchise decision about a foreign player should also remember that the same franchise supported him when his own country banned him to play," Irfan wrote in a tweet.</p>

The Aussies had tampered with the ball during a Test match against Soth Africa and the incident was caught on camera.

<p>Warner didn't take part in the IPL in 2018 but returned to open the innings for SRH in the 2019 season. He had a memorable run at the top and notched up over 600 runs in the season.
