Rajasthan Royals’ Royal Victory Over Punjab:-
By entering the den of lions, the royals have had a royal victory. Yes, when Rajasthan Royals scored 206 against Punjab, many had this hope that if it was any other team, they would have said that they lost the match, but if it is Punjab, then it is possible because Punjab is the team that had chased 200 plus seven times in the past years when it was at the bottom, which is much more than other teams and therefore all eyes were on the power play, but in the power play itself, time changed, emotions changed, circumstances changed and it was decided .
Power Play Sets the Tone for the Match:-
This match was not of the King but of the Royals because the Royals had scored 89 in 10 overs, so the King was not effective in Punjab today. When four wickets fell for 43 runs in the first six overs, it became clear there that the match was over, whatever was left was done in the end after the partnership because Punjab neither had a good start nor a good end.
Punjab’s Collapse: No Recovery After Early Setback:-
It was because in the beginning four wickets fell for 43 and before the end there was a glimpse that 131 runs in 14 overs and five balls, Maxwell is playing, then the whole story changed, two wickets fell in two balls and after that from 131 for 30 to 151 for nine the match was over, Bhai Sahib, only 155 were made in 20 overs, where is your 31 for 131 that was made for four wickets.
Jofra Archer: A Game-Changer in Rajasthan’s Bowling Attack:-
Rajasthan bowled brilliantly in the beginning in front of Punjab, the first over was dangerous and after that in the last five overs only 24 runs were given and behind this whole story was Jofra Archer, that Jofra Archer who was sleeping comfortably in Rajasthan’s batting, yes he was sleeping, he was sleeping with his face covered and people thought how is he so relaxed but then someone said that Jofra Archer woke up and sucked violence and actually there was violence because when Rajasthan came to bat after Rajasthan, people expected that They have batting, they have Priyansh Arya who bats well, they have Prabhu Simran, Iyer, Steynis, Vadra, Klein Maxwell, Shashank, Suryansh, even Marco Jason, it can happen after such a long batting.
Rajasthan’s Bowler Dominance Seals the Victory:-
Jofra Archer’s first over, he comes and clean bowls him and it is a scene worth watching, after this, on the second ball, Shreyas Iyer comes and slaps him with the same force, the four was fun, then Shreyas Iyer hits another four to Jofra and Shreyas Iyer hits 10 runs in the next four balls, it seems that Iyer made the match, bowled on the first ball, four on the second ball, then dot, then four, then double, the match was at its peak But then Jofra Archer bowls at the speed of 151 kmph, Shreyas Iyer does not feel the air and gets clean bowled, clean bowled, the match is set right here bhai sahab because if you are chasing 206 and after that two wickets fall in your first over, then the match is over and it was over, the match was actually over, for me the match was over there to a great extent because after this pressure comes and under that pressure Prabhu Simran got out, under that pressure Marco Stanis got out, by the way Rajasthan Royals will be very happy because they have different types of bowlers.
Bowler like Jofra Archer who bowls at 151 kmph and another one like Sandeep Sharma who manages with 120 but both are impactful, while Jofra Archer took three wickets for 25 runs in four overs, Sandeep Sharma gave just 21 runs in four overs, just 21 runs and took two wickets for 21 runs, meaning 206 has to be chased and in that one bowler If the team is conceding runs at an economy rate of five, then your victory is certain, Guru and this is the reason why Rajasthan Royals won this match.
Sanju Samson Creates History as Rajasthan’s Winningest Captain:-
Did you win? Many people must have lost today because most people’s hopes are on Punjab, but this is also the specialty of princely states that they turn the match around. Never mind, tomorrow’s match is Hyderabad’s match with Gujarat. You just need to tell whether Hyderabad will be able to beat Gujarat.
Their story is also the same. If they go on Myway Highway, then they will reach the moon, if not till evening, then the story is the same because if we remove Delhi from this IPL, then all the other teams have lost one match each. At least Delhi is the only one team which is saying that the kingdom is run from Delhi only and the fort of Delhi has not yet cracked, otherwise all the forts have cracked.
Shane Warne vs. Sanju Samson: A Debate for the Ages:-
All the teams have lost at least one match and many are also making a comeback like Rajasthan Royals made a comeback. They lost the first two matches and made a comeback in the next two matches.
It was amazing because the SRH that we are talking about for tomorrow’s match that will SRH defeat Gujarat, the same SRH had made life difficult for Jofra Archer. He had hit 76 runs in four overs,and IPL.
Punjab’s Lost Streak and Rajasthan’s Growing Strength:-
That was the most expensive over in the history of IPL because in that match only one ball of Jofra Archer was a dot and today Jofra Archer was amazing, he was wonderful, Priyansh on the first, Ayre on the second, this was Sandeep Sharma, was amazing, Teeshna was amazing, four overs, 24 runs, two wickets, if your three bowlers bowl 12 overs and keep the economy below six,think you win the match there and this is the reason why Sanju Samson won the match, Rajasthan Royals won the match and Sanju Samson created history with this, history of winning the maximum number of matches .
Looking Ahead: Can Hyderabad Defeat Gujarat?:-
While captaining Rajasthan, Sanju Samson became the captain who has won the maximum number of matches for Rajasthan in the history of IPL, he broke the record of The Great Shane Warne, Late Shane Warne, Late Shane Warne had won 31 matches for Rajasthan Royals and that record was broken by Sanju Samson, currently he has become the number one captain of Rajasthan with 32 wins, Rahul Dravid sahab has won 18 matches, so this is their whole story, Rajasthan lost the opening matches of the season After losing two matches, they defeated CSK and after that defeated Punjab by 53 runs and after losing two matches, Rajasthan Royals is currently back.
Jaiswal was very effective today. Riyan Parag was tremendous. Almost everyone from Dhruv Jurel down the order was tremendous. Nitish Rana may have got out but he also showed strength. So as a team, I believe Rajasthan Royals looked like a better team.
The IPL: A Tale of Ups and Downs:-
However, who is the greater captain between Sanju Samson and Shane Warne is a debatable topic because Shane Warne captained only 55 matches and won 30 matches. Sanju has captained 62 matches, so this is more. This is also a difference. Steve Smith captained Rajasthan. He won 15 matches, Rahane won nine.
Riyan Parag’s Key Contribution:-
All of them were captains, but Iyer’s record got broken. Iyer was winning matches continuously. Today, he The record was broken; even in batting today his performance was not up to the mark and the record of captaincy was also broken and that too because of Jofra Archer because Iyer could have become number two in the list of captains who have won the most consecutive matches; he is still number two but he could have officially become number two if he had won today because Gambhir had won 10 matches in a row in 2015; Rajasthan had won eight matches in a row in 2009; RCB had defeated them, otherwise the trophy would have been theirs that year too; in 2009 also RR was playing against the amazing Rajasthan Royals, RCB was playing against them and RR was very close to winning the trophy that year too because it had won eight matches in a row and RR was very powerful that year.
Final Thoughts: Royals Reign in Punjab:-
Iyer had also won eight matches, although this is a continuation from last year’s captaincy, but still that winning streak of Iyer was broken today and it was broken on a 151 km ball from Jofra Archer and Riyan Parag, must compliment him , 12 runs in 14 balls but then 31 runs in the last 11 balls. Now here also the question is whether Tilak Varma could have done this yesterday because when Riyan Parag was playing after scoring 12 in 14, everyone was angry but a big player often changes gears, accelerates and the same thing happened here, Riyan Parag scored 30 in 11, so whether this acceleration could have happened in the last match as well, that is a debatable topic but what is not debatable is that Rajasthan Royals have defeated Punjab and they are saying that by entering the home of the Sardars, today the Sardars are royals.
