RR's young batter, Yashasvi Jaiswal, showcased his mettle under pressure, leading Rajasthan Royals' innings with flair against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) during Qualifier 2 of the IPL 2024 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on May 24.

Chasing a target of 176 runs, which was set by SRH despite being restricted by Trent Boult and Avesh Khan, Jaiswal's performance was crucial.

Opening for RR, Jaiswal began aggressively, targeting SRH's ace bowler, Bhuvneshwar Kumar. The defining moment came in the 6th over, where Jaiswal dismantled Kumar’s bowling, hitting back-to-back boundaries and amassing 19 runs in the over. 

The sequence of 6, 4, 4, 4 highlighted his attacking prowess and set the tone for the chase.

Jaiswal’s explosive start was instrumental, especially after Tom Kohler-Cadmore's early departure. Partnering with Sanju Samson, Jaiswal's batting ensured RR maintained a steady run rate. 

His precise shots, including a powerful drive past mid-off and a sharp cut past backward point, were testimony to his skill and composure.

At the time of writing, Rajasthan Royals are at 63 for 1 in 8 overs, with Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sanju Samson at the crease, on 42* and 9* respectively.
