- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.1 Bhuvneshwar Kumar has a first wicket in IPL 2024! He will be a relieved man. Was a back of a length ball outside off. He looks to go down the ground but the ball gets big on him. He ends up slicing it straight up and mid-on settles under it comfortably 25/17.1 And gets a wicket first ball. Gaikwad saw his chance to score some runs but failed in the execution. Was a gentle length ball on middle stump. The CSK captain tries to get under the ball, fails to do it and as a result does not get a decent connection. The ball finds the inside half of the blade and long-on takes a simple catch 54/214.6 Taken by backward point and Unadkat ends Rahane's misery. Slower offcutter bowled at 105kph outside off. Was fuller in length as Rahane looked to go over cover. Gets it off the cue end of the bat and Markande takes a good catch behind him 127/413.4 Soft dismissal and captain Cummins has the big fish! Slower bouncer outside off. He stays legside of the ball, deceived by the pace of the ball. He can only bunt it to backward point who takes the easiest of catches 119/319.3 Straight to long-on! Fuller on the stumps, he gets under the ball but does not get the elevation. Long-on takes a simple catch 160/5Extras2 (lb 1, w 1)TOTAL165/5 (20 Overs, RR: 8.25)Fall of wickets: 1-25 (Rachin Ravindra, 3.1 ov), 2-54 (Ruturaj Gaikwad, 7.1 ov), 3-119 (Shivam Dube, 13.4 ov), 4-127 (Ajinkya Rahane, 14.6 ov), 5-160 (Daryl Mitchell, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR9.4 Ravindra almost messes it up! It was coming straight to him but he fumbled and managed to keep it in in the second attempt. And Head CANNOT believe what he has done - found the fielder perfectly. Theekshana tossed it up outside leg, the offspinner, the hit-me ball. Head obliged but not in the desired manner 106/22.4 End of the Abhishek Sharma show! The loud roar may not indicate that this is a home game for SRH. And Chahar is pumped up. Should have had a wicket in the opening over, but does so after taking a battering. Bowls it on a length outside off, Abhishek goes for a lofted shot over cover but slices it off the outer half. Jadeja runs to his right from backward point takes it reverse-cupped with a dive. Chahar exults 46/113.6 LBW appeal, given! Markram looks at the non-striker, who immediately asks him to go for the review. Has that turned a bit too much? Moeen tosses it up and lands it on a length outside off, Markram goes for the reverse sweep but misses because of the spin. Three reds and huge cheers in Hyderabad. Should make the list of soft dismissals for Markram, having looked at complete ease upto this point 132/315.4 Moeen and Dhoni appeal for lbw. You could almost not hear it. And next scene, they signal for DRS. Tossed up full on middle and leg, Shahbaz goes for the reverse sweep. Looks to have missed it. Did it pitch in line? Did it miss the bat? Replays taking time to load. No bat involved. And three reds again! Moeen strikes twice in two overs. Shahbaz looked unusually jittery this over 141/4Extras6 (b 3, lb 1, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL166/4 (18.1 Overs, RR: 9.13)Fall of wickets: 1-46 (Abhishek Sharma, 2.4 ov), 2-106 (Travis Head, 9.4 ov), 3-132 (Aiden Markram, 13.6 ov), 4-141 (Shahbaz Ahmed, 15.4 ov)

Having shackled CSK on a slow pitch, Sunrisers breezed to their target with 11 balls remaining
Ruturaj Gaikwad, the anchor at the top weighing CSK down
CSK's captain is playing to the CSK template - or idiosyncrasy, if you like - but he might just be taking it too far
Abhishek: 'We knew we had to take the powerplay on'
"As the ball got older, it got slower and slower and we couldn't capitalise at the end, plus they used the conditions really well," Ruturaj Gaikwad says
Sixes set to fly again as Sunrisers welcome CSK to Hyderabad
The match will be played on a different pitch to the one that hosted SRH vs Mumbai, but don't bet against another run-fest
How CSK put opposites together to become an IPL batting behemoth
By ensuring that they pair left-right combinations and spin hitters with pace hitters, CSK have significantly raised the ceiling of their line-up
