Jaipur: A good bowling effort followed by some valuable top-order contribution with the bat helped Rajasthan Royals seal a comfortable seven-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in an Indian Premier League (IPL) tie at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, here on Saturday.
Ajinkya Rahane (39), Liam Livingstone (44 off 26) and Sanju Samson (48 unbeaten off 32) contributed effectively while Steven Smith also chipped in with 22 runs to help their side cross the line with five balls to spare.
For Hyderabad, Shakib Al Hasan, Rashid Khan and Khaleel Ahmed picked a wicket each.
In the meantime, David Warner, who has played last IPL game on April 29, holds the Orange Cap with 611 runs in 11 matches while DC's Kagiso Rabada is at top of Purple Cap with 23 wickets in 11 matches.
Like Warner, South Africa pacer Rabada may also have to leave India if CSA decides the date of their preparatory camp soon.
