Hyderabad vs Kings XI Punjab Match Stats

Singh is off the mark as he pushes it down to long on for one.

Another run out chance! Length and outside off, Pooran guides it towards backward point and takes one. The fielder does has a shy at the keeper's end but misses.

Outside off, a little too wide. Singh lets it be. Wided.

Confusion but safe! Length and on middle, Mandeep pushes it to the left of mid-wicket and initially takes off. Pooran too takes off but then is sent back in time.

Outside off, this is guided towards point for one.

Another single! A low full toss on middle, it is eased down to long off for one.

A couple now! Full and outside off, it is lofted towards deep cover. Two taken.

 Short on off, Pooran punches it to cover-point for one.

Flatter on middle, Mandeep plays it away from long on for two.

OUT! BOWLED! Rashid does the trick with the googly. The best batters in the world have struggled to pick this Afghanistan spinners variation and Mandeep too has failed. It is the wrong 'un bowled at pace around off, Mandeep looks to defend but the ball goes right between his bat and pad to hit the stumps. Rashid is up in celebration so is the whole of Hyderabad.

Mujeeb is off the mark! On the pads, Mujeeb flicks it to the on side for one. 

Tossed up quicker on middle, Pooran milks it to long on and gets to the other end.

Flat and on middle. Mujeeb is cramped for room so he just defends it. 

Good length ball on off, Pooran keeps it out.

FOUR! Just short of the man at deep square leg. Length ball on off, Pooran pulls it. Samad at deep square leg comes in front and dives forward to take the catch but the ball falls in front of him and goes away to the fence.

FOUR! Pooran keeping Punjab's hopes alive! Yorker around off, Pooran manages to squeeze it away from short third man and gets a boundary.

Very full on middle, Pooran glances it to square leg for a single. 

OUT! So out is how it stays and Mujeeb walks back and takes the only review along with him. Not sure why he reviewed there when he was willingly walking back after the initiall referral. Coming to the ball now. It is a full one outside off, Mujeeb looks to jam it out but there is a noise as the ball passes the bal. Bairstow takes it and both the bowler and the keeper appeal. The umpire does not make any decision. He waits to see if Hyderabad review but they don't. The umpire now takes it upstaurs to check if it is a bump ball. Replays roll in and they show it is not a bump ball and OUT flashes on the bigscreen. Mujeeb start walking back but he has been asked to review it from the pavillion. He does so but Snicko shows there is an edge. He eventually has to walk back.

A dot to end! On middle, defended.

OH! Was there an edge? Quicker around off, Pooran looks to defend but the ball spins in and goes between his bat and pad. Bairstow behind fails to take it cleanly.

Floated on off, Pooran keeps it out. 

Shorter on off, Pooran plays it to long off but refuses to take a single. The ploy is simple, it is to see off Rashid Khan but that is increasing the run rate.

Flighted on off, Pooran plays it to long off but again does not take a run.

OUT! CAUGHT! GAME! SET! MATCH! - Hyderabad! The Afghan superstar does the trick and Warner's ploy to bowl his trump card to the left hander has paid its dividend. Short and spinning away from Nicholas Pooran. He punches it uppishly but straight to cover. Khaleel there makes no mistake and takes the catch and one can also say he takes the match. Did not understand the ploy not to take a single and once you get negative in this game it pays off badly and that is what has happened. 

OUT! LBW! Two in two for Rashid and he finishes with a double wicket maiden to finish with the figures of 4-1-12-3. Googly on off, Shami looks to defend but misses and gets hit on the pad. The ball hits him on the pad. An appeal follows and the umpire has no qualms raising his finger. Shami looks around for a review but Punjab do not have any left.

Full on off, Bishnoi defends it.

Another one at the stumps, Bishnoi defends it.

FOUR! Bishnoi did the job with the ball and he will try to do something with the bat as well. Full on middle and off, Bishnoi lofts it straight down the ground and gets a boundary.

Typical pace bowler's response. He gets hit for a boundary so he bangs it in short! Bishnoi looks to pull but gets hit on the grill. 

 Another short one around the body, Bishnoi pulls it to fine leg for one.

Slower one on off, Cottrell defends it. 71 needed in 4 overs just in case you were wondering.

Full around off, Bishnoi runs it down to third man for a single. 

OUT! The sweet sound of Timber! First wicket for Natarajan in this innings! A perfect yorker on middle and off, it would trouble any top batsman so it is too good for a number 11. Cottrell is slow to get his bat down and Natarajan strikes. Just a wicket away are Hyderabad.

Very full on off, Arshdeep jams it out.

 Another ball in the block hole. Arshdeep manages to defend it.

OUT! CAUGHT! That is it! Comprehensive win for Hyderabad and Natarajan finishes with two wickets. Full around off, Arshdeep hits it uppishly straight to Warner at mid off. Too safe a pair of hands to drop those. HYDERABAD WIN BY 69 RUNS!
