Earlier, the experienced pair of Kyle Jamieson and Mitchell Starc hit Rajasthan hard as both openers fell cheaply.<\/p>\n
Wonderkid Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was bowled by Jamieson for four while Yashasvi Jaiswal was caught and bowled by Starc for six.<\/p>\n
IPL fans had been eager to witness 15-year-old Sooryavanshi face up to Starc after hitting Jasprit Bumrah, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood to, or over, the rope first ball when they have squared off this tournament.<\/p>\n
But they were denied their wish courtesy of Jamieson\u2019s breakthrough.<\/p>\n
Parag, with five sixes in his 90, and Dhruv Jurel (42) turned the innings around before Starc struck twice more to reduce the hosts to 168-5.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe way Starc bowled, I want to say that\u2019s why he\u2019s a legend – after three months, he\u2019s playing and putting in a performance like this,\u201d teammate Axar Patel said.<\/p>\n
The Australian quick sent down 12 dot balls in his four overs and finished with 3-40.<\/p>\n
\u201cNice to get the cobwebs out,\u201d Starc said. <\/p>\n
\u201cGood to get some running in the legs, get some training in. Nice return… <\/p>\n
\u201cI mean I\u2019ve been bowling for a period of weeks. Haven\u2019t bowled at a batter until three nights ago. In terms of ticking the boxes with the skills, I was in a position to do most of what I want to do.\u201d<\/p>\n
South African slugger Donovan Ferreira then hit six sixes and scored 20 off Kuldeep Yadav\u2019s 18th over, closing on 47 not out from just 14 balls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An opening partnership of 110 from 57 balls by Pathum Nissanka and KL Rahul paved the way for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":643851,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[2620,192351,1724,64,63,284078,89827,113342,311573,740,1950,297159,311576,311574,196033,311575,297894,1209,300600,151559,13849,275715,116751,31024,1948,197308,44087,311572,267139,12540,85,91929,76647,311571],"class_list":["post-643850","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-agence-france-presse","tag-ashutosh-sharma","tag-asia","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-australian-cricket-player","tag-australian-fast-bowler","tag-axar-patel","tag-captain-indian-cricket","tag-cricket","tag-cricket-news","tag-cricket-player","tag-cricket-revolt","tag-donovan-ferreira","tag-dot-balls","tag-illegal-dressing-room","tag-impact-sub","tag-india","tag-indian-cricket-player","tag-indian-opener","tag-indian-premier-league","tag-jaipur","tag-kyle-jamieson","tag-mitchell-starc","tag-pat-cummins","tag-rajasthan","tag-rajasthan-royals","tag-record-run","tag-riyan-parag","tag-southern-asia","tag-sports","tag-sunrisers-hyderabad","tag-turnaround-win","tag-wish-courtesy"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/643850","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=643850"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/643850\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/643851"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=643850"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=643850"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=643850"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
