Buttler started his Indian premier league 2023 with a bang. The Englishman smashed 50 runs in just 20 balls. Stakes and Hopes are always high on Buttler after his record-breaking season in IPL 2022. Rajasthan Royals fired with both the openers scoring 85 off the first powerplay.
Buttler gave the Royals the start that was needed. The top 3 of Rajasthan Royals scored 50+ which set a strong base for the middle order to go big.
Twitterati reacted to Jos Buttler’s fireworks vs Sunrisers Hyderabad:
Twitterati was quick to react to Buttler’s 54, many feel that Buttler will break the 973 record of Kohli. If Buttler wants to break this humongous record of 973, he should keep going with the same intent.
Even in the previous season, Kohli’s record of 973 looked in danger. Buttler will look to retain his orange cap this season, the fans are more curious to see if Buttler can break the record of most runs in a single edition
Buttler will have competition from the young guns this season, Ruturaj and Shubman looked fabulous in the first match. Apart from the record for most runs in a season, Buttler will leave no stone unturned to help Rajasthan clinch the second trophy in IPL.
The Rajasthan Royals team looked sorted vs Hyderabad with a variety of players available in each department. Rajasthan Royals dominated Sunrisers Hyderabad throughout the match, and Hyderabad never had an upper hand in the match. Rajasthan Royals made it a one-sided contest.

Boult takes in the first over
Boult went all guns in the first over striking twice with a maiden over. Sunrisers Hyderabad managed to get only 131 losing 8 wickets in 20 overs. Rajasthan Royals lost finals in previous season with Buttler getting orange cap. Rajasthan Royals fans will need Buttler to do the same as last season for them to reach finals, above all this clinch the IPL Trophy.
