Overview

• Sunrisers Hyderabad chased down 206 runs, the highest ever at the Ekana Stadium, to defeat Lucknow Super Giants with 10 balls to spare.
• Abhishek Sharma led the charge with a blistering 59 off 20 balls, including six sixes, setting the tone for SRH's successful chase.
• Lucknow's campaign ended on a disappointing note as injuries, inconsistent bowling, and Rishabh Pant's poor form (128 runs in 11 matches) derailed their season.
• Mitchell Marsh (65) and Aiden Markram (61) gave LSG a strong start, but the middle order failed to capitalize fully, leaving them 10-15 runs short of a competitive total.
• With this loss, Gujarat Titans, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and Punjab Kings remain the confirmed playoff teams, while LSG will need to reassess their squad and strategy for next season.
