Right, then! We've come to the end of an epic contest. Hyderabad move to 2nd place, leaving Punjab one below them. Not much to worry about for the visiting team, but there are areas they would like to work on, the batting to be precise. So, anyway, we move on to the next one. Tomorrow, Delhi will take on Kolkata at the Feroz Shah Kotla at 2000 local (1430 GMT). Do tune in for that. Catch you folks then. Cheerio!
Ankit Rajpoot is declared as the Man of the Match. His team might have lost, but picking up a 5-fer is a massive feat in a T20 game. Rightly deserved.
The tourists would be quite disappointed with themselves, especially Ankit Rajpoot, who took a 5-fer and bundled out Hyderabad to a below par score. The openers provided a solid start, but nobody followed suit after. They have themselves to blame. All that was needed was some sensible batting, given the asking rate wasn't much. But they went for the needless big shots and threw their wickets away, thereby losing a match they should have won. If you think only big chases are entertaining, then these last few games should surely change your mind.
A wonderful, wonderful performance from Hyderabad. They've defended another low score, that too in consecutive matches. Just goes to show what a good bowling unit can do for you. Working wonders in this Indian T20 League season. With a below par total to defend, they didn't get off to the best of starts with Gayle and Rahul adding 55 between them. And it seemed things were over then itself. But, from the point Rashid dismissed Rahul, Hyderabad slowly crawled back into the game. The runs got clogged up, the wickets followed and eventually, they got the win. Unreal display, nobody could have guessed they would be able to pull this off with the kind of batting line-up Punjab possess.

Basil Thampi To Ankit Rajpoot OUT!
OUT! BOWLED 'EM! Thampi is right on the money and he steers his side to a stunning victory. HYDERABAD WIN BY 13 RUNS! What an effort. Full ball on the stumps, Rajpoot goes across the stumps to scoop this over short fine leg but misses it altogether. And since that's happened, the stumps have been rocked. Brilliant.

Basil Thampi To Mujeeb Ur Rahman
Well bowled! Yorker on leg, tailing back in, Mujeeb makes room to work it on the leg side but it's too good for him. Off his pads and away towards short third man. Leg bye taken.
Basil Thampi to bowl the final over. 14 to defend for him.

Siddarth Kaul To Ankit Rajpoot
Precious dot. That could have easily hit the stumps. Not sure how it's missed. Gosh! Fuller and slower just outside off, Rajpoot clears his front leg and misses his shot. It goes agonizingly close past the off stump.

Siddarth Kaul To Ankit Rajpoot
FOUR! Streaky runs but it's all the same for the away side. It will take it. The game is not over by any means. Full on the stumps, Rajpoot swings to go over the leg side and gets an inside edge past the leg stump. It runs away to the fine leg fence, beating the fielder chasing after it. 15 to win off 7 now.

Siddarth Kaul To Ankit Rajpoot
Slower delivery outside off, on a length, Ankit looks to go big on the leg side with a heave but misses. Mujeeb is alert, he quickly sets off, calls his partner through and a bye is stolen.

Rashid Khan To Ravichandran Ashwin OUT!
OUT! It's taken this time! Leave it to Kane Williamson to get it done. Man is the perfect captain. Always leads by example. Flighted right up there, Ashwin swings and balloons it towards extra cover. Williamson runs and takes a safe catch after getting under the ball.

Rashid Khan To Ankit Rajpoot
In the air for a long, long time... but it's fallen safe somehow! Rajpoot swings hard at this full ball and it goes in the mid-wicket area. Nobody there, a single is taken.

Dropped! Fuller ball on the stumps, Rajpoot gives it everything he's got. Only manages to sky it towards mid on where Nabi is positioned. He moves back, gets under the ball can't keep a hold of it. Single taken.

Siddarth Kaul To Barinder Sran OUT!
OUT! Sran is run out! Slower one again, touch fuller in length outside off. Sran swings and gets a bottom edge behind towards the slip cordon and sets off. Saha is quick to get to the ball, sees Sran is stranded in the middle of nowhere as he's sent back and hits the bull's eye at his end. Another wicket down.

Siddarth Kaul To Ravichandran Ashwin
Good fielding from Rashid Khan. Great with the ball and now stupendous in the field. Length ball well outside off, Ashwin cuts it through point. The Afghan in the deep moves to his left and makes a good sliding stop. Keeps the batsmen to just two.

Siddarth Kaul To Barinder Sran
Short of a length delivery around off, Sran awkwardly plays this towards mid off. Wants the single when there is none, is rightly sent back.
