Presentation Time...

Nitish Kumar Reddy is up for a quick chat. He says that they will proud to win this game and they want to continue this momentum. Adds that it was about playing the normal game and put pressure on the fielders. Mentions that Noor Ahmad and Khaleel Ahmed bowled well, but they needed this win. Says that RCB won six out six last year to make it to the playoffs so they just to have to believe and see what happens.

MS Dhoni, the captain of Chennai Super Kings says they kept losing wickets and the pitch was slightly better in the first inning and the score that they got wasn't justified and they needed to bat better. Adds that in the second innings, the spinners found a bit more grip and turn but they eventually fell shot of 15-20 runs. Says they have to score runs in the middle overs, especially against spinners and will be one key area they will want to improve. Concludes that in a tournament like this, if the majority of the players aren't doing well, it gets very hard to string performances and make changes.

Chennai Super Kings, on the other hand, will be disappointed with their effort with the ball, although the real setback was not putting enough runs on the board. Khaleel Ahmed set the tone early with a decent opening spell and Anshul Kamboj followed suit, but a few costly overs and too many extras hurt their chances. Noor Ahmad and Ravindra Jadeja tried to apply the brakes in the middle overs with some tidy bowling, but it just wasn’t enough to defend the modest total and secure those crucial two points.

Earlier in the evening, CSK managed a below-par total despite a few quickfire cameos from Ayush and Dewald Brevis, while Deepak Hooda chipped in with some big hits towards the end. For SRH, it was Harshal Patel who stole the show with a superb four-wicket haul. Pat Cummins and Jaydev Unadkat backed him up well with two wickets apiece, while Kusal Mendis and Mohammed Shami grabbed one each to round off a clinical bowling effort from the Sunrisers.

Sunrisers Hyderabad were rocked early, losing Abhishek Sharma for a golden duck, but Travis Head and Ishan Kishan brought some stability to the innings. Just when things seemed to settle, quick wickets of Head and Klaasen tilted the pressure back on. Kishan, though, played a vital hand with a gritty 44, keeping the chase on track. The middle overs tested their nerves, but Kusal Mendis held firm with a composed unbeaten 32. He found solid support in Aniket Verma and Nitish Reddy, and together, they guided SRH to a much-needed victory.

Sunrisers Hyderabad breathe life back into their campaign! Not only do they stay alive in the playoff race, but they also register their first-ever win at Chepauk - and what a time to do it. On the flip side, Chennai Super Kings lose four games in a row at home for the first time in their history. It’s a tough pill to swallow for the yellow army, and there’s plenty to reflect on as they look ahead.

Khaleel Ahmed (2-0-14-1) comes back into the attack.
