Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, 1st Match, Indian Premier League 2026 - Player Highlights

Abhinandan Singh to Ishan Kishan, out Caught by Phil Salt!! Phil Salt, you beauty! It needed something special to get rid of Kishan tonight and he has produced just that. A one-handed screamer running across at the point boundary when the ball seemed destined for the ropes. Full toss outside off, Kishan reaches out, opens the face and slices it in the air. It's well wide of Salt who charges to his right before reaching out one-handed at full stretch. Incredible work. Ishan Kishan c Phil Salt b Abhinandan Singh 80(38) [4s-8 6s-5],
