Match Over
SRH 226/8 (20 ov)
SRH won by 65 runs
226 on the board. SRH have set a massive target — the kind that changes body language in the dressing room. Klaasen's 52 off 35 (SR 149) was the innings that held everything together, with Sharma (48 off 21) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Muzarabani (4/41 in 4.2 ov), Arora (2/47 in 4.2 ov), Roy (1/16 in 2.2 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 4 wickets fell as SRH tried to accelerate, and what looked like 246+ became 226. KKR need 227 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.

Match Over
SRH 226/8 (20 ov)
SRH won by 65 runs
226 on the board. SRH have set a massive target — the kind that changes body language in the dressing room. Klaasen's 52 off 35 (SR 149) was the innings that held everything together, with Sharma (48 off 21) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Muzarabani (4/41 in 4.2 ov), Arora (2/47 in 4.2 ov), Roy (1/16 in 2.2 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 4 wickets fell as SRH tried to accelerate, and what looked like 246+ became 226. KKR need 227 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.
