This season, Sunrisers Hyderabad caused a huge decline in the hope of RCB to finish in the TOP 2. He plays his penultimate match of the season and Pat cummins’ the party turned ColidSport against the Rajat Patidar team, which did not come after a long break.
Ishan Kishan, who was terribly outside the IPL 2025, turned the hero for last year’s finalists and hit the unsurpassed 94 runs. Kishan’s shifts helped SRH to get a total of 231 runs, which later defended with the excellent second half of the show in their bowling shifts.
With the loss, RCB remained on 17 points and now can only get to 19 if they defeated Lucknow Super Giants, which takes place on the last day of the group phase, 27 May.
Although RCB reaches 19 points, they must hope for favorable results from Gujarat Titans and Panjaby kings who have dynamics on their side.
Kohli fire, but RCB loses
Only once a total of 200+ runs were persecuted on Ekana, and this appeared in the previous match on this terrain when SRH played LSG 19 May. Virat Kohli and Phil Salt, however, got the side to fly the start and hit 72 runs inside the powerplay.
The goal of Ekana was real where the dough could trust reflection and pace, the kind of playgrounds that he often did not see this season.
Kohli relaxed soon, even though he helped with some terrible field from Nitish Kumar Reddy. Nitish first badly judged a simple chance and let the ball walk through his head while he stood on a deep square leg. He then crossed the ball in the same place and gave away the border. Both cases came against Kohl and left Captain Srh forcibly shook his head.
It should be noted that 72/0 at 6 breaks does not necessarily reflect how well the Bowled Pat Cummins Bowled, especially Pat Cummins, will be well on Friday. Cummins will hit the helmets of both openers – Kohli and Salt, which forced a break in the game. On the other hand, he did not receive great support and runs flowed in the first 10 breaks of the game.
Nitish-Eshan comes a clutch
The match changed in the 15th and 16th and crossing, with Nitish Kumar Reddy and Eshan Malinga gathered this season. With RCB he required 69 out of the last 6 overs – a completely achievable goal with 7 goals in his hand – Reddy excited.
India versatile, which rose to meaning last year, bowed to a mixture of yorkers, outside-taeman supplies and fast ejectors and held far from the affected arch Patidar and Jitesh Sharma.
Nitish’s Over was the first without a boundary in the shifts, and it was pressure on RCB of the dough.
SRH doubled in the 16th place, with Eshan Malinga released Rajat Patidar despite an amazing escape. Patidar tucked the ball to the off side after he couldn’t hit the border from Malinga in 4 balls. This resulted in Malinga running, lifting the ball and ripping the throw to the end of the non-striker. He hit the ball into the stumps and got rid of Captain RCB, who scored only 18 out of 16 balls.
Two balls later Malinga bowed to a well -hidden slower ball and Romario Shepherd (0 out of 1) from her own bowling imprisoned and started to fall the team.
Panic followed when RCB lost 2 goals and scored only 11 runs in the last two breaks. This led to Jitesh Sharma playing in the next unscrupulous shot and in the 17th game.
This is where SRH believed that they had finished the match and made sure the match did not allow to slip again.
Ishan Kishan Clicks
SRH proved a score of 231 runs only because of the gravel of Ishan Kishan. Kishan bit the playground after the ball timed at the beginning of his shifts and slowly grew into the game. Kishan anchored shifts as people fell around him and made sure that SRH had passed around the 220-running brand, which they initially watched.
Kishan’s shifts were supported by Heinrich Klasen (24 out of 13), Aniket Verma (26 off 9) and Pat Cummins (13* off 6), who timed the ball better than him, but went out and tried to hit big shots. With Cummins, Kishan took a series of doubles in the last two breaks and helped his party to the 231-running goal.
This was Kishan’s first 50+ score since he hit a hundred in his first game for SRH. He stayed undefeated at the age of 94, but maybe shifts may have been too late this season. Kishan has always been said to be a sovereign dough, but in the last two years his temperament and work ethics have been questioned.
On Friday, Kishan showed that it is a first -class dough, although it is not at best, but probably must show this gravel more often next season.
Kishan’s shifts would put SRH into the dilemma – to keep him or drive him out of the team, given his high price tag.
