Sunrisers Hyderabad pacers Prafull Hinge and Saqib Hussain have remained in the limelight following their IPL debuts. In the match played against the Rajasthan Royals, Prafull and Saqib enjoyed a dream start to their IPL careers. Both debutants claimed four wickets each and played a pivotal role in securing a 57-run victory for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Following this win, the Hyderabad team climbed to the fourth spot on the IPL 2026 points table, while the RR team retained the number one position despite suffering their first defeat of the season.
While both Hyderabad pacers garnered significant headlines, Prafull stole the spotlight, having claimed three wickets in his very first over—including dismissing Vaibhav Suryavanshi for a ‘golden duck.’ The reaction of SRH owner Kavya Maran following Vaibhav’s dismissal on the very first ball was a sight to behold, and the video of the moment has gone viral.
Kavya Maran’s Reaction to Vaibhav’s Duck
Indeed, Vaibhav Suryavanshi—the 15-year-old batting sensation who has been tormenting veteran bowlers throughout IPL 2026—fell victim to a ‘golden duck’ on this occasion. Against Sunrisers Hyderabad, he failed to even open his account on the very first ball and made an immediate return to the pavilion. Prafull Hinge dismissed him via a catch taken by Salil Arora.
When Vaibhav stepped out to open the innings, he intended to play a magnificent shot to ensure a brisk start; however, Prafull delivered a hard-length delivery. Vaibhav attempted to play a pull shot, but the ball struck the upper edge of his bat and soared into the air. The moment the ball went airborne, Kavya Maran—seated in the VIP stands—sprang from her seat, and her reaction was truly captivating. She appeared to be almost praying that the catch would not be dropped—and, fittingly, that is exactly how it unfolded. Wicketkeeper Salil Arora stepped forward to take a safe catch; at that moment, Kavya Maran was overcome with joy, leaping in the stands to celebrate this crucial wicket.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Vaibhav’s early dismissal dealt a blow to the Rajasthan Royals, and the team was unable to recover. The result was that Sunrisers Hyderabad defeated the Rajasthan Royals by a margin of 57 runs. With this defeat, the Rajasthan Royals’ streak of four consecutive victories also came to an end.
