Irfan: "SRH would miss a batsman like Markram on tacky surfaces like this. "
Kemuel Bruce: "Badoni and pooran looked like they were batting on a complete different pitch than their teammates "
Here's the man of the hour Ayush Badoni: The wicket was on the slower side and I wanted to take it deep by playing cricketing shots and not throw my wicket. The wicket was on the slower side. You can't go from ball one. Mostly the bowlers were bowling short deliveries and I was trying to play the shots square. It is a good score if the dew does not come in. I think the bowlers can defend it. No dew at the moment.
9.12pm LSG first 13 overs: 73 for 4. LSG last seven overs: 92 for 0. What looked like an innings going nowhere has ended on a big note and it was all down to Ayush Badoni and Nicholas Pooran. The duo added 99 off just 52 balls to take the side to a competitive 165 for 4. LSG had a torrid time at the start managing just 27 in the powerplay. But Badoni (55* off 30) and Pooran (48* off 26) have lifted their hopes. Can SRH chase this down? Join Andrew Miller in a bit to find out.
Abhishek Sharma is the Impact Player and he comes in for T Natarajan. Cummins to bowl the last over
