The Qualifier 2 between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) has started on a thrilling note, with both teams looking to start from the word go. Trent Boult emerged to the RR's clutch player as he removed three crucial wickets inside his first three overs, one of which was of the attacking Rahul Tripathi. 

The SRH number 3 batter played a blistering cameo of 37 runs off just 15 balls, where he went behind Ravichandran Ashwin and Boult to smoke five boundaries and two biggies. 

Tripathi caressed a Suryakumar Yadav-esque supla shot for a maximum off Boult. However, the New Zealand quick had the last laugh, using a slower bouncer.

The agony on the batter's face was evident as he was devastated with the shot he played after failing to pick the variation. Even the SRH owner, Kavya Maran, showed disbelieve as SRH lost Tripathi on 37.

After removing Abhishek Sharma in the first over and then Tripathi, Boult got better of Aiden Markram on a corker of a delivery.

Soon, SRH lost Travis Head and a couple more wickets as the RR bowlers initiated another middle-over collapse - just like they did against Bengaluru.

At the time of writing, Hyderabad's score is reading 130/6 after 15 overs, with Heinrich Klaasen and Shahbaz Ahmed in the middle.
