CSK vs SRH: Match Summary

 

The Sunrisers Hyderabad got off to a great start in their chase of a mediocre target of 155. The opening pair of captain Kane Williamson and Abhishek Sharma added 89 for the first in 12 overs. Though the start was not as fast, they covered up quickly and were on the required run rate trail by the time Williamson got out on 32 off 40 balls. 

 

Abhishek on the other end was not perturbed by the dismissal one bit and continued with his crunching shots which were a treat to the eyes. He added 66 off just 30 balls with Tripathi before being removed by DJ Bravo when only 10 runs were required for victory. Tripathi and Nicholas Pooran completed the formalities as the target was chased down with 14 balls to spare and eight wickets in hand. 

 

Earlier in the day, after being asked to bat first, Chennai Super Kings didn’t have a good start and lost both its openers Robin Uthappa and Ruturaj Giakwad with only 36 runs on the board in the first 31 balls.

 

Moeen Ali and Amabati Rayudu paired up for a 62 runs stand in 50 balls. But just when it was required for them to tee off, they perished in pair and took Shivam Dube along, leaving two new batters in MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jaje at the crease. Dhoni couldn’t play more dots as he was caught at deep fine leg early and in the last two overs, Ravindra Jadeja and Dwayne Bravo hit some lofty shots to the team to 154/7 in 20 overs.

CSK vs SRH Player of the Match: Abhishek Sharma

 

Abhishek Sharma, who was almost dangling on an axe for not being able to perform in the first two games, played a brilliant inning to not just shut his critics, but also give himself some confidence that the management was right in backing him. The Punjab born left-hander hit 75 of just 50 balls, a knock that included five fours and three sixes to get his team over the line. He was rightly adjudged as the Player of the Match.

CSK vs SRH Highlights: Hyderabad win by 8 wickets, register their first points on board

Sunrisers Hyderabad registered their first victory in the Indian Premier League season 2022 as they defeated the Chennai Super Kings by eight wickets at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. Abhishek Sharma was the hero of the match for the Sunrisers as he scored a brilliant 75 off just 50 balls to chase down 155 very easily with 14 balls to spare. 

 

Apart from Abhishek, Rahul Tripathi with the bat (39* off just 15 balls) and Washington Sundar and T Natarajan with the ball did a brilliant job to get SRh the first two points and get the ball rolling in the 10 team show in which Chennai still needs a win after the first four matches to open its account.

Chennai vs Hyderabad Live Score: Bizzarre no-ball from Jordan

 

After getting whacked for a six off his first ball, Chris Jordan here has knocked the bails at his own end in his run-up and gone for four towards fine leg off that every delivery, meaning that it would be a no-ball and at the same time, the next ball would be a free hit as well

 

And this over is getting worse with each passing ball as so far, Jordan has given away 18 runs off the first five balls and with a ball to be bowled and on the last ball he has given a single to make it a 19 run over and now just 11 required off the last three overs

Maheesh Thekkshana has been hit for four by Abhishek Sharma, although it came off a leading-edge as it went above the short-third-man, apart from that, he has been remarkable at his IPL debut as he has given away only 12 runs off his first 11 balls overall, meaning that, apart from that four, just 8 off 10 balls in the powerplay, that’s some bowling.
