Ishan Kishan's electrifying century proved to be the difference as Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) defeated Rajasthan Royals (RR) by 44 runs in the second match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium here on Sunday.

It was a completely entertaining run-fest which saw 528 runs being scored in 40 overs of the match as bowlers endured a tough day in Hyderabad. Earlier, Kishan slammed his maiden IPL ton on his SRH debut to steer the side to 286/6, the second-highest total in IPL history.

Chasing the gigantic target of 287, Rajasthan suffered a chaotic start as they lost opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (1), captain Riyan Parag (4), and Nitish Rana (11) in the first five overs. However, Impact Substitute Sanju Samson and Dhruv Jurel provided the much-needed juice to Rajasthan's innings. The duo kept the run-rate ticking nearly around the required run rate and stitched a 111-run partnership for the fourth wicket.
