That's all from us at ESPNcricinfo. Enjoy the Live Show that will dissect every moment of this game. See you tomorrow for more cricket. Bye bye!

Presentation coming up soon.

Travis Head is Player of the Match: On a bit of a roll there. Enjoyable, boys are on a roll. (Assessing conditions early) When you're in good form, just trying to keep it simple. Reacted to the ball. (Batting with Abhishek) First time we saw spin in the powerplay last game, and seeing how aggressive he is against spin, we try to let him do his thing against spin. He did it today too. (Head bowling offspin?) I think out of everyone I'm the worst bowler. Markram might pip me. [smiles]. Nitish and Shahbaz also gave some handy overs. Good to have so many options. (Head's last 12 months or so) Things have been coming together after a couple of years. Hard work. But also been playing a lot of T20s. Nice to be batting high up at the batting order too."

Winning captain Pat Cummins: Good record here. Another great game of cricket. You saw there wasn't much in the powerplay for both sets of bowlers. After that it slowed down, but overall a great batting wicket. (No dew in chase?) Yes little bit of grip out there, that may be a factor. (On batters teeing off) Part of me is excited and elated, part of me is worried that I'll have to bowl there [smile]. Really happy how we closed out the bowling. Everyone was disciplined in the field."

11.15pm Sunrisers Hyderabad continue to utterly dominate with the bat. Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma's 125-run stand in the powerplay blew Delhi Capitals away and pretty much set the result in stone. Sunrisers slowed down, but finished strong. Capitals started strong, scoring 88 in their powerplay, and were going above the required rate after around eight overs. But in the end, that start was too much to recover from. And Sunrisers go second on the table with another win in a high-scoring affair. Jake Fraser-McGurk was incredible for Capitals, though, smashing 65 off 18 while Abishek Porel also impressed with a 22-ball 42. Pant then played an odd innings, and could not get going for the longest time.

Here's what losing captain Rishabh Pant has to say: "[On bowling first] The only thought process behind that was we thought there would be some dew but it didn't come. I thought if we could restrict them to 220-230 we would be in with a chance. [On their bowling] I think powerplay was the difference. We were just catching up throughout the match. That was the massive difference. Hopefully we will come back with more thought process and clear mindset. [On FMCG] He's been batting phenomenal, he is coming nicely for us. That is what you want. Sticking together as a time at the hardest time. We have to look at the areas we can improve and come back in the next game."

Bhuvneshwar Kumar: "(Rate that bowling performance) When defending those many runs, you either go for plenty or you get wickets. We accepted that we'll go for plenty of runs when defending those many runs, but the plan was to keep executing. (Own form) Feeling good. Not among the wickets but the way I want to execute it is happening. Just a matter of time. (Natarajan's season) Amazing. We know how good he is at yorkers. He keeps working hard, silent guy, goes unnoticed a lot. We know how important he is for Sunrisers. (SRH's batting in 2024 - impressive?) For so many years, this is the first time where our batting is clicking so much. As a bowling unit, happy to take the back seat. They are ruining us (smiles), when we defend 180 or so, it'll feel like less. (They play same way in nets?) Yes, same, especially Head and Abhishek, playing same way. Batters sometimes play opposite in the nets, but they play the same way. (How will the IPL be won - will it be bowling?) Bowling is something .... somebody says batting wins your sponsorship, but bowling wins you championship. The way we are bowling right now looks bad on the scorecard but it is pretty good for us."

Mukesh Kumar faces the hat-trick ball

While smashing a six out of the ground is something batters love to see in cricket, strikers in football love nothing more than hitting the top corner of the net. FC Goa captain Brandon Fernandes scored an absolute golazo to steer his team into the ISL semifinals. Here's the breakdown of that wondergoal.

Natarajan to Kuldeep Yadav, OUT, yorker searing into his toes. Kuldeep misses the flick, and it hits his boot. Umpire swift to raise his finger for the LBW and Kuldeep reviews. Replay shows three reds - crashing into leg stump. And that is also Natarajan's best figures in T20 cricket!

Pranali: "On a scale of Virat Kohli to Virendra Sehwag, how big of a bowling option does Abhishek Sharma present ?" -- better than Sehwag. I doubt Sehwag would've bowled much in today's era of T20 cricket

Strestha: "This may seem harsh but Lalit Yadav has not shown any talent the last 4 years. DC needs to move on. Also Pant is not back to the form he was in, understandbly. He will not be in my team if I was selector. He needs time" -- DC have a balance problem with the lack of Indian batters. This has been affecting their balance bad
