For once, David Warner didn’t score a half-century – he managed a 32-ball 37 against Rajasthan Royals – without hitting a single boundary – but in the process, he breached the 600-mark in the run charts and extended his lead in the top of the table.

Jonny Bairstow, who has left the Hyderabad camp, remains No.2 in the run charts with 445 runs. The only other representative from last night’s teams was at No.10 – Ajinkya Rahane, who scored a 34-ball 39, is now just two runs away from No.9 Quinton de Kock.

Among the bowlers, the big news was the ascent of Shreyas Gopal, the leg-spinner. He took a 2/30 to move up to No.3 in the charts with 15 wickets. There was no other Hyderabad or Rajasthan player in the top 10 of the bowling charts. The list is still dominated by Delhi Capitals’ Kagiso Rabada, who has 23 wickets to No.2 Imran Tahir’s 17.
