In the ninth match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022, Rajasthan Royals (RR) thrashed Mumbai Ind🐽ians (MI) by 23 runs at Dr DY Patil Sports Acade𓆏my in Mumbai on Saturd🔯ay.

Chasing a big total of 194, opener Ishan Kishan and youngster Tilak Verma batted exceptionally well to take Mumbai close to what could be a memorable victory. Kishan smashed 54 off 43 balls, while Tilak sco💮red 61 from 33 deliveries, but after their dismissals, MI lost track and fell 23 runs short of the target.

For Rajasthan, spinner Yuzvendra Chahal almost picked up a hat-trick by dismissing two wickets on consecutive balls in the 16th over. But Karun Nair, at slips, dropped a cat✅ch to deny Yuzvendra his maiden hat-trick i♔n the lucrative league.

Earlier, Jos Buttler smashed his first century of the ongoing fifteenth season and second overall in the cash-rich league. The opening batter took the MI bowl💟ing attack to the cleaners, smashing five sixes and 11 fours en route to his 68-ball 100.

Captain Sanju Samson (30 off 21) and Shimron Hetmyer (35 off 14) also chipped in with valuable cont💜ributions as Rajasthan posted a massive 193/8 on the board in their allotted 20 overs.

  • Jos Buttler: 124 vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, 2021
  • Jos Buttler: 100 vs Mumbai Indians 2022

“Obviously a great feeling and nice to contribute. I’m a bit nervous as it is hard to tell if it is a good score or not with the short boundary on one side. Mumbai always attack me with Bumrah, he’s one of the best bowlers in the world, and I find him hard to attack, and that (Thampi) over the leg-side boundary was short, and I decided to target that,” Buttler was quoted as saying after the f𒁃irst innings.
