Krunal Pandya stole the show tonight [Source: IPLT20.com]
This concludes our coverage for the tenth league-stage match of the IPL 2023. Stay tuned for our upcoming live blogs. Till then, bye bye, take care.
Pooran finishes things off with a six! LSG win by five wickets. They lost the previous game narrowly and have bounced back remarkably. Krunal Pandya is the star of the day.
Rashid strikes again and now Romario Shepherd departs! Is there a twist in the tale? I don't think so.
Meanwhile, KL Rahul has been adjudged LBW and it's three reds in the DRS. The skipper, who anchored the innings brilliantly, has to walk back to the hut. Only 8 needed to win for LSG.
It hasn't been a great day for the SRH owner Kavya Maran
But Anmolpreet Singh's poor keeping has gifted some crucial extra runs to LSG. They are only two hits away from a clinical victory.
Umran Malik strikes and a wicket falls against the run of play for LSG! Krunal Pandya returns the pavilion after playing a match-winning cameo.
Only 26 more needed with 48 balls to spare. It's going to be an easy win for Lucknow Super Giants.
Krunal Pandya is dealing in boundaries. After scalping three wickets, he has contributed 27 runs with the bat. What a spectacular all-round show it has been.
Meanwhile, Umran Malik has been brought into the attack. Is it too late? I think he should've come a bit earlier.
It has been a magnificent partnership between Krunal Pandya and KL Rahul. Both have looked rock-solid and determined to help their team go past the finish line.
The situation of Harry Brook 😂
Time for a bowling change, T Natarajan comes into the attack.
Meanwhile, Krunal has smacked a huge six off Adil Rashid. SRH's defeat seems to be on the cards now.
Edged, but Pooran couldn't hold on to that. KL is riding his luck.
Debashish: KL Rahul looks at his absolute best. All he needs to do is play through and finish the game for his side.
We're done with the power play and LSG are 45/2.
Wait, What? Bhuvneshwar Kumar strikes! You heard it right, Bhuvneshwar Kumar has finally got a wicket and it's Hooda who has to go back. Can Hooda's wicket trigger a collapse?
Hooda goes down the ground and Hooda goes out of the ground! Huge six to start the sixth over. LSG are well on course for a well-deserved victory.
First wicket for SRH and it's Kyle Mayers who has to go back to the dugout. Short delivery from Fazalhaq Farooqi and the Caribbean batter hits it straight to the mid wicket.
LSG have raced to 35 in 4 overs. Will somebody change the game for SRH or the hosts will hunt down the total without breaking a sweat? Let's see. 👀
Aiden Markram has decided to have a bowl. But Rahul is in mood to dispatch everything to the fence, as he greets him with a fabulous sweep shot.
Debashish: This has been a positive start by the LSG openers. It seems like they have read the pace of the wicket pretty well.
Spin introduced straightaway by Markram. Washington Sundar has been brought into the attack. Can he have a similar impact like Krunal?
Rahul starts off with a glorious cover drive. As gorgeous as it can be. LSG are off to a quick start. Meanwhile, Fazalhaq Farooqi has stepped in as SRH's impact player for the game.
We are back for the chase. Kyle Mayers and KL Rahul to open and Bhuvneshwar Kumar opens the attack for SRH.
Finally, SRH manage to hit a six and it's Abdul Samad who has done it for them. Two Clean strikes from the Jammu boy takes SRH to 121 for 8 at the end of 20 overs. Not enough, surely. But their bowlers at least have something to defend.
After taking a fabulous catch, Mishra has dismissed Sundar and Adil Rashid. SRH are in deep trouble, placed at 108 for 7.
Abdul Samad enters and starts his innings with a powerful pull for four! Can he take SRH past 130?
What a grab by Amit Mishra and Yash Thakur removes well-set Rahul Tripathi, who tried to play a cheeky shot there but Mishra ji had other plans.
Take a bow, Amit Mishra!
Sundar and Tripathi are playing a nice brand of ODI cricket, but they must realise that it's a T20.
Finally some respite for SRH fans, Rahul Tripathi smacks Amit Mishra for a four over his head. 15 overs are done and the Orange army should aim at finishing things on a high note now.
Meanwhile, LSG have opted for a review for caught behind and it's nothing in the snicko. So, they lose their review.
Debashish: Puff of dust coming out of Lucknow's deck 👀 Irrespective of what SRH post, I reckon it will be a tough chase for LSG against the SRH spinners.
Here comes Amit Mishra, the spin wizard. Let's see if he can exploit these conditions.
We are past the halfway mark and SRH have managed only 60-odd runs. More importantly, they have lost 4 crucial wickets.
Surprise, Deepak Hooda comes into the attack ahead of Amit Mishra.
No, no, no... Ravi Bishnoi ensures Brook goes back to the dugout for 3. Back-to-back failures for the English sensation. As it seems, he has failed to adhere to the Indian conditions.
In comes Harry Brook, can he emerge as SRH's saviour tonight?
Oh, what a ball to greet Markram! Krunal Pandya knocks over Aiden Markram with a peach. First ball duck for the SRH skipper and I can see the Lucknow crowd going berserk. What a sensational spell this has been from Krunal Pandya.
But not this time! Krunal Pandya pleads for a LBW and the umpire declares Anmolpreet out. However, he has opted for the review. But it's umpire's call on hitting and Singh has to depart. His topsy-turvy 31-run knock comes to an end. Krunal Pandya does the trick for LSG once again!
In the airrrrr, but it falls in no man's land. Anmolpreet survives, yet again. He is riding his luck.
Debashish: Considering the two-paced nature of the surface, I reckon the set batters must capitalise on their starts, as batting won't be easy for a new batter on this deck.
Here comes LSG's trump card, Ravi Bishnoi.
End of the power play and LSG are 43 for 1. Anmolpreet Singh has played some glorious shots and looks in good touch.
Ultra-edge: No bat involved, Pitching: Outside off, Impact: in line, but wickets missing. Anmolpreet survives, so does SRH's first review!
Appeal and the umpire has raised his finger! Anmolpreet has been given LBW and he has decided to review it.
First signs of aggression from Rahul Tripathi, as he clears his front leg and scoops Yash Thakur for a four! Let's see how the youngster responds to this.
Pandya is making a statement here. He has stuck to the basics and prevented the SRH top order from capitalising on the power play. But Anmolpreet has decided to take him on and smokes two consecutive boundaries. The Punjab batter looks in rhythm tonight.
Debashish: We are into the fourth over and the ball has started keeping low 👀. That sight would've made spinners from both sides happy.
And Krunal strikes! First wicket for the left-arm spinner. Mayank Agarwal, what have you done? What a loose shot to get out, he must be kicking himself.
First signs of spin, as Krunal Pandya has been introduced into the attack, but Mayank greets him with a boundary.
Debashish: The SRH openers are looking to negotiate the new ball. Interesting times ahead. Anmolpreet Singh breaks the shackles, smacks the first six of the game as we speak.
Steady start from Mayers with the ball, conceded only five runs. 👏
So, here we go! Anmolpreet Singh and Mayank Agarwal are out to open the batting for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Kyle Mayers to start the bowling for LSG. Let's go.
