PBKS vs SRH Highlights:
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) held on for a thrilling two-run victory over Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the 23rd match of the ongoing IPL 2024. Chasing 183 for victory, PBKS fell short, finishing their innings at 180/6.
PBKS's chase began poorly, losing three wickets – Jonny Bairstow, Prabhsimran Singh and Shikhar Dhawan – for just 20 runs inside the powerplay. Sam Curran and Sikandar Raza steadied the ship with a 38-run stand, but a stunning catch by Pat Cummins sent Curran back for 29.
Raza (28) and Jitesh Sharma (19) couldn't capitalize, leaving PBKS reeling at 114/6 in the 16th over. Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma attempted a repeat of their heroics against Gujarat Titans (GT), but fell short. They needed 29 runs from the final over bowled by Jaydev Unadkat and managed 26.
Earlier, Nitish Reddy's brilliant half-century helped SRH recover from a shaky start. Batting first after Shikhar Dhawan (winning captain) elected to field, SRH posted 182/9 in their 20 overs.
Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head got SRH off to a decent start with a 27-run opening partnership. However, Arshdeep Singh struck twice in the fourth over, dismissing Head and Aiden Markram. Sam Curran then sent back Sharma in the fifth over, leaving SRH at 39/3.
Reddy and Rahul Tripathi steadied the innings with a 25-run stand before the latter was dismissed by Harshal Patel for 11. Heinrich Klaasen couldn't provide much support, departing for just 9 runs, leaving SRH at a precarious 100/5 in the 14th over.
However, Reddy anchored the innings, sharing a crucial 50-run stand with Abdul Samad. Arshdeep Singh provided a double breakthrough in the 17th over, dismissing both Reddy (64) and Samad (25). Shahbaz Ahmed and Jaydev Unadkat then helped SRH cross the 180-run mark.
