After dropping points in their previous match to CSK in Chepauk, Lucknow Super Giants returned to winning ways by defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad with 5 wickets  in hand at their home stadium for their second victory during the Indian Premier League 2023. LSG chased down the deciding total in just 16 overs as SRH posted 121 runs for the cost of 8 wickets throughout their 20 overs.

At the Lucknow Ekana Cricket Stadium, SRH chose to bat first after winning the toss. Mayank Agarwal, who attempted to put the pressure on Krunal Pandya off the last delivery of the third over but instead gave the ball to Marcus Stoinis between covers, was the first victim for the visitors. He got the wickets off Anmolpreet Singh as well as Aiden Markaram in the next over to give his side the advantage.

Despite taking their time, Washington Sundar as well as Rahul Tripathi managed to collect a large number of dot balls. They might suffer during the remainder of the game as a result of the dot balls, which might lead to a poor total.

However, the dependable batsman Rahul Tripathi took care of putting the bowlers under strain in the last overs. However, Yash Thakur, a young player, claimed the decisive wicket during the 18th over when Amit Mishra grabbed a wonderful catch. Abdul Samad’s heroic effort ultimately assisted SRH in scoring a pathetic score of 121/8 in 20 overs.

LSG lost Kyle Mayers with the score at 35 runs after 4.3 overs while trying to chase down a modest total. Bhuvneshwar Kumar removed Deepak Hooda in the following over after grabbing a catch with his own delivery. Following that, captain KL Rahul with Pandya set up a 55-run stand for their third wicket. 

Who bowled the fastest delivery of the match?

After smashing four fours plus a maximum while scoring 34 runs off 23 balls, Pandya was out. Umran Malik produced the fastest ball of the match to get the in-form all-rounder out and the speedometer recorded a delivery of around 149,3 kmph. Rahul was eliminated after having scored 35 points off of 31 and four goals. Despite that, Nicolas Pooran hit a six to end the game, which LSG won with four overs remaining after scoring 127 runs with the loss of five wickets.
