Rajasthan captain Sanju Samson won the toss and decided to bat first surprising everyone. His decision was justified by Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal. Both scored 72 runs in 7 overs. Even after Buttler’s dismissal, Jaiswal continued his form to complete another half-century.

Yashasvi continued his innings while other batsmen were getting dismissed from one side. He took care of all the bowlers to complete his first IPL century off 53 balls. Interestingly, he plays domestic cricket for Mumbai on this ground.

He scored 124 runs off 62 balls with the help of 16 fours and 8 sixes before being dismissed in the last over. This was the best knock by any uncapped player in the IPL. This record was previously held by Paul Walshty. He scored 120 runs for Punjab in 2011.
