Rahane got his fifty quite easily and it has been a low-scoring game. There was a solid opening partnership between Rahane and Sanju Samson. Thereafter, RR lost a few wickets but were never in danger of losing the game for they were in control. Earlier in the day, the Orange Cap had gone to David Warner and now it has been taken by Rahane. Steven Smith was the holder before this game. Live Scorecard: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royals
