First Innings

The pitch of the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, which was considered batter-friendly, couldn't help the home side score another big total. However, with a few healthy partnerships and a powerful knock from Travis Head, SRH were able to put 191 runs on board. For LSG, Shardul Thakur took four wickets, including important ones like Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan.

Second Innings

Chasing a relatively low score at this ground, Super Giants' openers entered the ground fully charged up with Aiden Markram and Impact Player Mitchell March. But Markram returned back to the pavilion early, following which Nicholas Pooran came out in the middle. Things went all South for SRH when Markram and Pooran hammered sixes and boundaries across the ground, scoring 77 runs in the Powerplay. SRH skipper Pat Cummins removed Pooran at 70 but it was too late for the Orange Army as the damage was already done. After Pooran's departure, things were easy for LSG in chasing the 192-run target, and they also achieved it comfortably in 16.1 overs.
