POTM Travis Head said:
"Lot of fun today. Nice to get this done in 10 overs. Abhi and I have had a few partnerships like this. Just concentrate on getting in good positions, watch the ball hard and try to maximise the powerplay. It is something I have been working on, it will be a big part in the Caribbean as well. It is important to go 360 in the modern game. The last 12 months, that's how they wanted me to play in the Aussie team, and that's what I've been told to do here as well. Nothing much that I have to change. I know how hard he works and how deep he thinks, his spin play is second to none. We compliment each other very well. We didn't think about it till the Timeout, but after that the boys came out and told us to score quickly," Head said.
Winning skipper Pat Cummins said:
"(On did he change the pitch) Maybe Travis and Abhishek did. We just let them go, they are two guys who are very positive and I'm a bowler, it is tough for me to give them any inputs. He's been like this for 2 years, he hits the tough areas, hits the middle a lot, might not be super conventional. Just an incredible player of spin and pace. With just 2 fielders out, it is really difficult for the bowlers against them. I think the scores have gone up, and when the wickets are good, it is tough to come up with answers against batters when they get going. The boys have had a fantastic season, but to win this with less than 10 overs played in unreal," Cummins said.
Losing skipper KL Rahul said:
"Am lost for words. We have watched that kind of batting on tv. But this is unreal batting. Everything seemed to find the middle of the bat. Kudos to their skills. They have worked hard on their six hitting skills. They didn't give us a chance to know what the pitch played in the second innings. Was hard to stop them as they teed off from ball one. Once you are on the losing side, there are questions marks on the decisions taken. We were 40-50 runs short. When we lost wickets in the powerplay, we couldn't get any momentum. Ayush and Nicky batted well to get us to 166. But even if we would have got 240, they could have chased it as well," Rahul said.
SRH WIN BY 10 WICKETS
AND JUST LIKE THAT, SRH WIN THE GAME BY 10 WICKETS. Abhishek Sharma hit a cracking six to finish the game.

Yeah, just.. Second weakest over in the innings. SRH are 157/0 after nine overs.
17 RUNS OFF THE OVER
They aren't tired of hitting. 17 runs were scored in Bishnoi's second over as SRH are 143/0. They just need 23 runs to win now!
19 runs off the over
Bringing Badoni at a time when all other bowlers getting smashed made little sense. He leaked 19 runs in the over as SRH are 126/0 after seven overs.

Time for the chase
Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head open for Sunrisers Hyderabad while K Gowtham start the proceedings for LSG.
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) continue their ongoing IPL (Indian Premier League) 2024 campaign by taking on Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). Both sides will lock horns at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad in the 57th game of the tournament on Wednesday, May 8. Hyderabad will be coming into the clash after a loss in their previous game, where they faced Mumbai Indians.
With 12 points in 11 matches, Hyderabad sit in fourth place in the standings, and they will aim to register a win against Lucknow and stay in contention for the playoffs of the tournament. The side has been in good form throughout the competition, and they will hope that they can continue on the same track.
On the other hand, Lucknow Super Giants will be coming into the game on the back of a loss in their previous clash. The side faced one of their biggest defeats ever when the Kolkata Knight Riders defeated them by 98 runs.
With 12 points in 11 games, LSG are trailing, right behind SRH, and the side will aim to register a win and move up to the fourth spot in the standings. As the clash approaches, it could be interesting to see how LSG bounce back after their loss against KKR.
