SRH Batting Struggles Despite Cameos
After opting to bat first, SRH had a shaky start as Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan departed early. Travis Head led the charge with a quick 47 off 28 balls, but wickets kept falling at regular intervals. Aniket Verma provided late fireworks, smashing 36 off 13 balls, while skipper Pat Cummins hit 18 from just four deliveries.
Shardul Thakur was LSG’s standout bowler, picking up 4/34 in his four overs. Prince Yadav, Ravi Bishnoi, Digvesh Rathi, and Avesh Khan took one wicket each as SRH finished at 190/9 in 20 overs.

Chasing 191, LSG lost Aiden Markram early, but Mitchell Marsh (52 off 31) and Nicholas Pooran (70 off 26) dismantled the SRH bowling attack. Pooran’s explosive knock, laced with six fours and six sixes, ensured LSG stayed ahead in the chase.
Pat Cummins picked up two wickets, but SRH’s bowlers struggled to contain the run flow. David Miller (13) and Abdul Samad (22 off 8) finished the job, sealing the win with 23 balls to spare.
