Speaking of the action of the ongoing second IPL 2025 game between Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad. RR won the toss and asked SRH to bat first, the hosts are displaying sensational and blistering batting in the first innings. They have smashed 184 runs for the loss of just 2 wickets in only 13.1 overs, with Ishan Kishan and Nitish Kumar Reddy there in the middle.

Ishan Kishan has scored swashbuckling 65 runs off just 29 balls, with six fours and four sixes, alongside Nitish Reddy’s 19 runs off just 10 balls, with three fours. Earlier in the innings, Travis Head also smashed 67 runs off just 31 balls, with nine fours and three sixes following Abhishek Sharma’s 24 runs off just 11 balls, with five fours.
