Won by 8 wickets Vs CSK.

- What a turnaround by Kane and his men, a total dominance.

After 8 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 72/1 ( Kane Williamson (C) 16 , Rahul Tripathi 7)

Williamson collects a single off the first delivery. Sharma then holes out to the fielder at long on while looking to wrap things up in style, going for a slog down the ground only to get caught by Anuj Rawat. Single off the fourth and fifth deliveries before Tripathi finishes things off with a six over the backward square-leg fence, sealing a nine-wicket win for Hyderabad inside eight overs!

OUT! Sharma perishes just three short of a well-deserved half-century. Looks to get the Sunrisers past the finish line with a flourish, going for a slog down the ground, but ends up offering Anuj Rawat a sitter in front of the boundary. SRH 64/1
 

Sharma c Rawat b Patel 47(28)

After 7 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 63/0 ( Abhishek Sharma 47 , Kane Williamson (C) 14)

Spin introduced on the other side of the powerplay with Hasaranga replacing Harshal. Williamson dances down the pitch and smashes the ball down the ground for a four off the first ball, bringing the equation down to single figures. Seven from the over, with SRH just one hit over the fence away from a huge win.

After 6 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 56/0 ( Abhishek Sharma 46 , Kane Williamson (C) 8)

Now Williamson helps himself to his first boundary, opening the face of his bat and placing it between slip and gully for the ball to run away to third man. Abhishek later collects back-to-back fours, bringing up the fifty partnership with Williamson in the process. Just 13 more needed for SRH at the end of the powerplay.

After 5 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 42/0 ( Abhishek Sharma 37 , Kane Williamson (C) 3)

Harshal Patel introduced. FOUR! Sharma continues to produce those gorgeous strokes as he moves into the 30s, this time slapping the ball in front of square, and follows it up with an authoritative aerial drive over extra cover! Thick edge off his bat flies towards short third man, where it lands just short of the fielder. Single to Abhishek off the fourth followed by consecutive dots. Nine from the over. SRH need just 27 more to win from 90 balls.

After 4 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 33/0 ( Abhishek Sharma 28 , Kane Williamson (C) 3)

Leg bye added to the total in the second delivery of Hazlewood’s second over, before Abhishek collects his third boundary of the evening, this time with a confident pull off a short-of-length ball from Hazlewood in the third delivery. Makes it two boundaries in three balls with a slash behind point off another short ball from the Bendemeer Bullet. Abhishek keeps the strike with a single off the last ball.

After 3 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 23/0 ( Abhishek Sharma 19 , Kane Williamson (C) 3)

SIX! Slapped over extra cover by Abhishek Sharma as the southpaw collects the first maximum of the innings right after collecting the first four. Follows it up with short-arm pull past the keeper for his second boundary of the evening. 12 off Siraj’s second over, with Sharma and Williamson collecting a single each as well. Less than 50 left to score for the Sunrisers now.

After 2 overs,Sunrisers Hyderabad 10/0 ( Abhishek Sharma 8 , Kane Williamson (C) 1)

Josh Hazlewood steams in from the other end. Starts off with three dots before banging one short that Sharma pulls towards the cow corner region, getting enough time to push for a third. Skipper Williamson then gets off the mark with a single off the following delivery. Sharma ends the over with a boundary, the first of the innings.

After 1 over,Sunrisers Hyderabad 2/0 ( Abhishek Sharma 1 , Kane Williamson (C) 0)

Siraj starts off with three dots before Abhishek scampers towards the non-striker’s end for a quick single in the fourth after working the ball through the leg side. Wide conceded by the Hyderabadi Siraj in the final delivery of the over.

Going through the lowest point of his career, is VK

Virat Kohli deserves a much needed break from some matches. A little rest should rejuvenate him.

A significant date for RCB fans

23/4/2022 - RCB 68 for 10

After 16.1 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 68/10 ( Josh Hazlewood 3 , )

OUT! Siraj is the last man to fall, skieing the ball towards cover where Williamson pulls off a superb catch running backwards, as Bhuvneshwar grabs the remaining wicket of the innings. With that, RCB have been bundled out for 68 — exactly five years since their infamous 49 all out against KKR!

Siraj c Williamson b Bhuvneshwar 2(4)

After 16 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 68/9 ( Josh Hazlewood 3 , Mohammed Siraj 2)

Natarajan flattens the stumps again, this time sending Hasaranga back to the dugout and collecting his third wicket. Mohammed Siraj is the last man in for the Royal Challengers, and he’s off the mark right away with a single. Three runs and a wicket from the over. Bangalore one wicket away from getting bundled out now.

BOWLED! Natarajan strikes for a third time today, once again sending the stumps flying around! Hasaranga swings his bat looking to take the aerial route over midwicket, but misses it completely. Timeout signalled after the dismissal. RCB 65/9

Hasaranga b Natarajan 8(19)

After 15 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 65/8 ( Wanindu Hasaranga 8 , Josh Hazlewood 2)

Jansen returns. Hasaranga and Hazlewood collect a single each before the former crouches low and goes for a lovely extra cover drive for a welcome boundary in the fourth delivery. He keeps the strike with a single off the last ball. Jansen signs off with 3/25.

After 14 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 58/8 ( Wanindu Hasaranga 2 , Josh Hazlewood 1)

Hasaranga gets off strike with a single off the first delivery. Hazlewood then is left to fend the remaining deliveries of Malik’s final over of the evening, each of which goes for a dot. Malik sings off with 1/13.

After 13 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 57/8 ( Wanindu Hasaranga 1 , Josh Hazlewood 1)

Natarajan removes Patel off the first ball of this over, sending the off stump into a cartwheel, as Bangalore lose their eighth wicket. Both Hazlewood and Hasaranga collect a single each to get off the mark later in the over.

OUT! Another peach of a delivery from Natarajan that sends the off-stump into a cartwheel. The left-arm seamer slanted this across to the right-handed Patel, the ball nipping away after pitching between middle and leg, and getting just about enough movement to beat Patel’s outside edge and clip the top of off. Bangalore two wickets away from getting bundled out now! RCB 55/8

Patel b Natarajan 4(8)

After 12 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 55/7 ( Harshal Patel 4 , Wanindu Hasaranga 0)

Testing over from Malik, in which he gives away just two off it, including a wide. Malik successfully appeals for caught-behind in the third delivery, but Hasaranga takes this upstairs right away, and it turns out to be a case of the ball hitting the top of the pad. Nothing on LBW either.

After 11 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 53/7 ( Harshal Patel 3 , Wanindu Hasaranga 0)

Good over from Suchith with just four coming off it, including a brace to Harshal Patel off the first ball. Wanindu Hasaranga, meanwhile, is yet to get off the mark at the other end.

After 10 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 49/7 ( Harshal Patel 0 , Wanindu Hasaranga 0)

Just two runs and a wicket from Malik’s second over of the evening, as RCB find themselves seven down with just 49 on board at the halfway stage. Serious trouble for du Plessis’ side and they’ll need a miracle from the tail-enders if they are to even cross 100 from here.

OUT! Further trouble for the Royal Challengers with Shahbaz caught-behind off Malik’s bowling in the speedster’s second over of the evening. The umpires take this upstairs to check if it’s a clean catch or not, and ultimately rule it in favour of the bowling side. Third dismissal for Pooran in a space of two overs. RCB 49/7

Ahmed c Pooran b Malik 7(12)

After 9 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 47/6 ( Shahbaz Ahmed 5 , Harshal Patel 0)

Outstanding over from Suchith to push the Royal Challengers on the backfoot again just when the partnership between Prabhudessai and Shahbaz was starting to worry them. Gives away two runs in the first delivery before getting Prabhudessai stumped and Dinesh Karthik caught-behind in the next five.

OUT! What an over this is turning out to be for the left-arm spinner! Suchith gets rid of the in-form Dinesh Karthik this time, getting him caught-behind. Except the umpire initially ruled it a wide. SRH opt for the review, and UltraEdge confirms contact between the ball and DK’s glove. RCB 47/6

Karthik c Pooran b Suchith 0(3)

OUT! Suchith strikes just when the fifth wicket stand is starting to look dangerous from SRH’s perspective. Prabhudessai dances down the track looking to smash the ball over the bowler’s head, but misses completely. Pooran whips the bails off in a flash. RCB 47/5

Prabhudessai st Pooran b Suchith 15(20)

After 8 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 45/4 ( Suyash Prabhudessai 13 , Shahbaz Ahmed 5)

Umran Malik introduced in the eighth over, and he’s clocking speeds in excess of 90 mph right away. Prabhudessai collects three in the third delivery after guiding the ball through the midwicket region. Malik later ends up bowling a second bouncer in the over, the umpire signalling a no-ball and a free hit after the second one. Ahmed makes the most of the free hit with an expansive drive towards the cover fence for a boundary. Eight off the over.

After 7 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 37/4 ( Suyash Prabhudessai 10 , Shahbaz Ahmed 1)

Jagadeesha Suchith introduced after the powerplay. Starts off with a wide down the leg side, followed by a couple of dots. Prabhudessai and Shahbaz collect a single each. The former then collects three off the last delivery after working the ball through the square leg region. Six from the over.

After 6 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 31/4 ( Suyash Prabhudessai 6 , Shahbaz Ahmed 0)

Jansen gets a third over now, and starts off with a wide. Prabhudessai, meanwhile, collects his first boundary with an aerial drive over the diving Williamson at cover, following it up with a single. Six from the over. RCB reach 31/4 at the end of the powerplay. Shahbaz Ahmed, meanwhile, is the new batter at the crease.

After 5 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 26/4 ( Suyash Prabhudessai 1 , Shahbaz Ahmed 0)

Natarajan replaces Bhuvi, and he too is off to a top start as the Tamil Nadu left-arm seamer removes Maxwell in the second delivery, with Bangalore losing their fourth wicket with just 20 on board. Could’ve started off with a wicket-maiden had he not conceded five wides in the final delivery.

OUT! Superb catch by Williamson at mid off as the wickets continue to tumble for the Royal Challengers, this time Glenn Maxwell heading back to the dugout after getting off to a promising start. Maxwell looked to take the aerial route down the ground, but hardly got any timing on it. Natararaj strikes in his first over of the evening! RCB 20/4

Maxwell c Williamson b Natarajan 12(11)

After 4 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 20/3 ( Glenn Maxwell 12 , Suyash Prabhudessai 1)

Maxwell fights back against Jansen in the seamer’s second over of the evening, collecting a couple of boundaries. Flicks an overpitched delivery through the square leg region in the second ball and follows it up with a lovely drive through the cover region two balls later. Collects a single off the fifth. Nine from the over.

After 3 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 11/3 ( Glenn Maxwell 3 , Suyash Prabhudessai 1)

Excellent second over from Bhuvi, with just three coming off — all of them in the form of singles. RCB No 5 Suyash Prabhudessai, meanwhile, is off the mark and will hope to mount a rescue for his team along with Maxwell.

After 2 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 8/3 ( Glenn Maxwell 1 , )

WHAT A START FOR MARCO JANSEN! The South African left-arm seamer strikes thrice in his first over — uprooting the off stump to send his compatriot du Plessis packing and removes Kohli for a second golden duck of the season the very next delivery. Anuj Rawat nicks the ball to the slips to depart for a two-ball duck off the last delivery. Glenn Maxwell, meanwhile, is up and running, batting on 3 at the end of the dramatic over.
