Time to sign off - That wraps up an action-packed anniversary day of the IPL, with no shortage of action. Earlier in Bengaluru, in a contest that ebbed and flowed, DC crossed the line against RCB, with David Miller redeeming himself in style. Another double-header awaits on Sunday, 19th April. First up in Kolkata, the Knight Riders take on the Rajasthan Royals as they hunt for their first win. That match will begin at 3.30 pm IST (10 am GMT). Later in the evening in New Chandigarh, the only unbeaten side in the competition, the Punjab Kings, face the Lucknow Super Giants. The first ball will be bowled at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). We look forward to your company then. Until next time, take care and cheers!
The captain of the Sunrisers Hyderabad - Ishan Kishan says it is lovely to have a group of young bowlers coming up with their own plans. He adds that watching Praful, Sakib and Shivang improve day by day in training makes it important to trust them. Kishan feels that they were 30-40 runs short and admits that they need to be better with their shot selection. Kishan also says they are not focusing on the points table at the moment, instead looking to keep their heads down and take it one match at a time.
PLAYER OF THE MATCH - Eshan Malinga wins the award for producing impressive figures of 3/29 from his 4 overs. Malinga says that they had a good bowling plan as a team, and they knew how to play at this kind of pitch, and it was all about executing. Adds that Ishan Kishan kept on asking him about what type of deliveries he was going to bowl, so that the field could be set accordingly. On getting some reverse swing at the death, Malinga says that it is very important for a good bowler to get it to reverse.
Time for the presentation ceremony...
SRH's batting recap - It was a quiet start to the game after SRH were inserted to bat, before Abhishek Sharma unleashed an assault and brought up a 15-ball fifty. Once he fell, Heinrich Klaasen was left to fight a lone battle, and he too departed after reaching his half-century. SRH were deprived of a late flourish as CSK produced a remarkable bowling display at the death. By Klaasen’s own admission at the halfway mark, they were about 10 runs short of a par total, but their bowlers stepped up admirably to seal the win.
SRH fought back and never looked back - Dewald Brevis and Sarfaraz Khan both fell while going for the big shots and will look back at those moments, as they could have taken it upon themselves to guide the team home. Matthew Short played the anchor role but could not see it through either. SRH pounced on the opening provided by Sarfaraz’s departure, with Ishan Kishan rotating his bowlers smartly to put the game beyond CSK's reach. The likes of Sakib Hussain, Shivang Kumar and Eshan Malinga did not disappoint, with Sakib putting behind him a tough start to fight back strongly.
Mhatre led the Powerplay charge - CSK lost Sanju Samson early, but Ayush Mhatre once again ensured they made the Powerplay count. Towards the back end, he pulled up with a hamstring issue and fell soon after, and so did Ruturaj Gaikwad. That lifted SRH’s spirits, but despite losing three wickets, CSK had raced to 76 in the Powerplay. That brought the required run rate down under 9, and it was about managing the chase from there.
A quick word with SRH's star all-rounder - Nitish Kumar Reddy says that everyone did a fine job, and it was a team effort, and thankfully, it came in a winning cause. On his bowling, he tried to bowl according to the situation and to his field. He reckons that it was a good pitch for the spinners but is happy with the way their seamers bowled. Reddy also adds that it was key to hit the top of off on this deck and on Shivang Kumar, NKR says that his mystery bowling is helping them a lot and hopes that he continues in the same way throughout the tournament.
The captain of the Chennai Super Kings - Ruturaj Gaikwad says that with how the Powerplay went with the ball, they were looking at 220 or 230, but the way they pulled things back with the ball was great to see. Adds that with just about 80 runs or so needed in the last 10 overs, all they needed to do was build a couple of stands. Gaikwad feels that the couple of overs after the 10th over mark changed things and gives credit to the SRH bowlers for the way they fought back. On the CSK bowling, he says that it is good to see how they are coming along in the last 2-3 matches, and it was good to see how they managed to cash in on the momentum. On Kamboj, he says that he is really glad to have him in the side, and his death bowling has really improved.
SRH get the job done - Back-to-back wins at home for the Sunrisers, and for the first time this season, they have secured consecutive victories. Both wins have largely come on the back of impressive bowling efforts. CSK fail to track down a 190-plus target once again in the IPL. It is their 10th successive unsuccessful attempt in a full 20-over chase, with the last such successful pursuit coming back in 2018.

Praful Hinge To Anshul Kamboj
That's it, Praful Hinge has done it and Sunrisers Hyderabad win by 10 runs. Praful goes for the yorker at the toes again but errs on the fuller side. Anshul Kamboj clips the low full toss off his legs and towards deep mid-wicket for a single. Great comeback from Hinge, especially given how the first over of the chase went.
19.5

Praful Hinge To Noor Ahmad
Another fine delivery. Full and at the toes, Noor Ahmad jams it across through mid-wicket and picks up a single in the deep. A huge roar from the crowd as they are now certain that without any extras, the game is in the bag for the home side.
That should do it for SRH. Noor Ahmad comes out to bat. Don't count him out. Remember his final-over heroics in the T20 World Cup against South Africa?

Praful Hinge To Jamie Overton OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Should be the game for SRH, 13 needed off 2 balls. Two sixes to tie for CSK. Praful Hinge keeps his composure and nails another one in the blockhole, landing it just outside off. Jamie Overton hangs deep in the crease and looks to power it away but can't quite get under the flight of the ball. Ends up heaving it towards long off, where Liam Livingstone moves to his left and pouches it well.

Praful Hinge To Anshul Kamboj
That's a stellar comeback delivery from Hinge. A yorker right on the money, on leg stump and Kamboj can only jam it out to deep mid-wicket for a single. 13 needed now off 3 balls.
19.3
nb
Praful Hinge To Anshul Kamboj
No ball! Oh, deary me. That looks too high and it is given as a No Ball but SRH have reviewed it. Praful Hinge runs in and tries to angle across a yorker but the ball slips out of his hands and ends up going past the batter at around chest height. The third umpire confirms that Kamboj's waist height is 1.09 meters and the ball went past him at 1.24 meters. Free Hit loading...
19.2
lb
Praful Hinge To Jamie Overton
That's well bowled. Praful stays around the wicket and jams the yorker in on the pads. Overton fails to flick it away and the ball thuds into the pads before rolling away just past the strip into the leg side. The batters pick up a leg bye.

Praful Hinge To Jamie Overton
Good hustle from the batters. Full at the toes, ends up being a low full toss. Overton jams it down to long on and picks up a couple of runs.
Time for the final over. Praful Hinge to bowl. He has conceded 54 runs in his 3 overs so far. Can he redeem himself?

Nitish Kumar Reddy To Anshul Kamboj
Oh, that should have been a run-out, but Jamie Overton is left off the hook here. Slower ball, slightly back of a length. Kamboj swats it down to long on without much timing and the batters look for two. The throw comes in at the bowler's end but Reddy fails to dislodge the bails. 18 needed off the final over.

Nitish Kumar Reddy To Anshul Kamboj
WIDE! Oh, an extra and NKR can't get out of the over. Full and wide, sprayed beyond the tramline outside off.

Nitish Kumar Reddy To Anshul Kamboj
SIX! That's a big blow from Kamboj. NKR misses the straight yorker and serves a full toss on middle, Anshul Kamboj backs away and takes full toll as he swings it over long on for a biggie. 21 needed now off 7 balls.

Nitish Kumar Reddy To Jamie Overton
Full again, angled into the pads, hacked across the line to deep mid-wicket for one more.

Full-pitched delivery, pushed wide outside off, Anshul Kamboj slashes at it and slices it over the point region for a single.

Nitish Kumar Reddy To Jamie Overton
Just a single. Fuller in length, wide outside off, a bit slower too. Overton toe-ends the smack-drive to deep cover for a run.

Nitish Kumar Reddy To Jamie Overton
A low full toss, straight at the stumps. Jamie Overton drills it back but Nitish Kumar Reddy does well to get a big hand on it on the followthrough.
Nitish Kumar Reddy has been brought back with CSK needing 30 runs off 12 balls. So, the 20th over will have to be either Praful Hinge or Shivang Kumar, barring any surprises.

Eshan Malinga To Jamie Overton
Another misfield. Full again, on middle and leg, flicked away to the right of deep mid-wicket for a single but Ishan Kishan now fumbles and concedes an extra run.

Eshan Malinga To Jamie Overton
FOUR! Should have been stopped but that's a fine shot again from Overton. Attempted yorker, on leg stump, Malinga errs on the fuller side. Overton clips it firmly between long on and deep mid-wicket and it is Aniket Verma from the latter position, who runs across and gets to it but fumbles it over the ropes.
