It was a dominating show from the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) after they crushed Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by five wickets at their home ground. All the predictions that projected SRH's victory went for a toss after Nicholas Pooran put the foot on the accelerator. LSG skipper Rishabh Pant made a daring move by deciding to bowl against SRH's fiery batting lineup on a flat batting surface.
SRH, who often gets a flying start, was stopped by Shardul Thakur as he struck with two early wickets of Abhishek Sharma (6) and Ishan Kishan (0). Post that, SRH's innings was held by a 61-run stand between Travis Head and Nitish Kumar Reddy. SRH achieved the competitive total of 191/9, despite losing wickets at regular intervals, thanks to the mini cameos from Heinrich Klaasen (26), Aniket Verma (36), and Pat Cummins (18). LSG's Shardul Thakur picked four crucial wickets that halted SRH from crossing the 200-run mark.
In response, Lucknow Super Giants lost Aiden Markram (1) early, but Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran took the charge and smashed SRH bowlers all around the park. Pooran's dominating show of 70 from just 26 balls left SRH in disbelief as the required came down to 7. SRH did scalp a few wickets in the middle, but the damage was already done by the LSG top order. In the end, Abdul Samad provided the final touch of 22 runs from eight balls, ensuring a five-wicket win in just 16.1 overs.
