In a spectacular display of batting, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's near-century off just 29 balls powered Rajasthan Royals to a formidable score of 243 for eight against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL Eliminator. The innings, held on Wednesday, showcased Sooryavanshi's explosive form as he fell just shy of setting a new IPL record for the fastest century.

Sooryavanshi and Yashasvi Jaiswal shared a crucial 125-run partnership for the first wicket, laying a solid foundation for the innings. Later, Dhruv Jurel contributed a swift 50 off 21 balls to maintain the momentum. However, the remainder of the batting lineup struggled to capitalize further. Meanwhile, Praful Hinge was the standout bowler for Sunrisers Hyderabad, claiming three wickets for 54 runs.
