Onto the next one - That wraps up a batting spectacle filled with big hits and plenty of runs. Despite the defeat, Royal Challengers Bengaluru still head into the playoffs with two chances to reach the final, while Sunrisers Hyderabad finish with a morale-boosting win. The action in the Indian Premier League 2026 now moves to the Ekana Cricket Stadium, where Lucknow Super Giants face Punjab Kings in a crucial clash. Punjab need a win to stay alive, while the hosts will play for pride. It will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), but do join us early for all the build-up. Until then, goodbye and take care!
PLAYER OF THE MATCH - Ishan Kishan wins the award for his brilliant knock of 79 off 46. He says that he is taking one match at a time and not complicating things for himself. Adds that he just feels a bit more confident while playing against RCB. Mentions that he looks to understand the pitch and play every ball on its merit, and it is working out for him. Kishan shares that even when he was leading in the absence of Pat, he was looking to win the games then and keep SRH in the hunt for the playoffs, and when Pat came in, it gave the side one of its best bowlers and an undoubted skipper who knows how to win key moments and carry the team ahead. Ishan ends by saying that skipper Pat and the support staff are the reason behind the side's aggressive approach, as they have backed the entire team in playing the natural way.
The victorious skipper of Sunrisers Hyderabad - Pat Cummins says that it was pretty impressive to get to the score. Adds that there were some excellent batting performances and the bowlers did a fine job as well. Mentions that they threw everything at them to try and get into the top-two spots, but it wasn't to be. Cummins mentions that it is still a big win. Praises the bowling attack and says that he has also learned a few things from them. Shares that having the likes of Malinga and Sakib is a captain's dream. He ends by saying that they still have 5-6 days before the Eliminator, they will know who they will play in a couple of days, and prepare according to the team and conditions.
Presentation Time...
A chat with one of SRH's quicks - Sakib Hussain says that the plan was to bowl according to the understanding of the deck. Sakib mentions that Varun Aaron (Bowling Coach) said that the ball was sticking into the pitch, and he bowled slower cutters based on that input. Sakib says that Virat's wicket was a dream wicket for him. He reckons that he is looking to improve every time and the spirit of the side is really high and everyone is looking to give their 100 percent.
The captain of Royal Challengers Bengaluru - Rajat Patidar says the top five batters played really well for SRH and dominated his bowling unit. Rajat mentions that the pitch did not slow that much in the second innings, but the opponents bowled really well. Patidar shares that their priority was to stay at the top, but they gave away a touch too many runs for the liking of this deck. Rajat reckons that the slower bouncer and variations into the deck were the way to bowl on this track, and SRH did that perfectly.
Hyderabad gain momentum at the right time - Sunrisers Hyderabad will take plenty of confidence from this bowling performance heading into the playoffs. They struggled to contain the scoring in the Powerplay, but Eshan Malinga and Sakib Hussain struck crucial blows by removing both the openers. Although wickets dried up in the middle overs, the bowlers adjusted smartly to the conditions, mixing up their pace and reducing the boundary flow to halt Royal Challengers Bengaluru's momentum. Once it was confirmed that SRH would finish third, Pat Cummins tossed the ball to Travis Head, who even chipped in with a wicket, as Hyderabad wrapped up a comfortable win in the end.
SRH batters run riot - Earlier in the game, Sunrisers Hyderabad piled on a massive total courtesy of blazing fifties from Heinrich Klaasen and Abhishek Sharma, while Travis Head and Nitish Kumar Reddy chipped in with quick cameos. However, it was Ishan Kishan who top-scored with a blistering 79 off 46 balls. It was a tough night with the ball for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, as all three frontline pacers conceded over 50 runs each, with only Rasikh Salam managing a couple of wickets. Krunal Pandya and Suyash Sharma picked up one each, but barring the last couple of overs, RCB struggled badly to contain the flow of runs.
RCB settle for top spot - Royal Challengers Bengaluru came out with aggressive intent in the Powerplay, with Venkatesh Iyer blazing away to a 19-ball 44, although Virat Kohli struggled to find fluency as they reached 75/2 in the first six overs. However, the momentum dipped in the middle phase and the focus gradually shifted from chasing the target to securing a top-two finish. Devdutt Padikkal chipped in with a handy cameo, while Rajat Patidar and Krunal Pandya stitched together an 84-run stand, with the skipper bringing up a classy half-century. Tim David then provided the late fireworks to ensure RCB finished the league stage at the top of the table, despite ending well short of the target.
SRH crush the defending champions - Sunrisers Hyderabad sign off from the league stage in style with a massive win over the defending champions, making it even more special in front of their loyal Orange Army. However, despite the 55-run victory, they finish third on the table and will now head into the Eliminator. Meanwhile, Royal Challengers Bengaluru will take on Gujarat Titans in Qualifier 1 and will want to quickly move past this heavy defeat before that crucial clash.
