Full and it is the googly, on middle. Rinku backs away and cuts it to backward point, where Eshan Malinga makes a diving stop to his right.

FOUR! Wonderful! Floated up, a bit too full, on off. Rinku stays leg side of the ball and goes inside out. Hits it away from a straightish extra cover fielder and beats long off to his right for a four.

Another googly, on a good length, on middle. Rinku makes room and exposes all three stumps. He cuts it late but can't beat Jaydev Unadkat at short third, who makes the stop to his left. They cross.

Looped up, full and on middle. Angkrish Raghuvanshi reaches out in front and knocks it to wide long off for a run.

FOUR! Cut away! Shivang drops it short, on middle and leg. Rinku Singh backs away once again and cuts it late and wide of backward point for another boundary.

OUT! ANGKRISH RAGHUVANSHI IS RUN OUT! A mix-up, and this time, Raghuvanshi has to go. Shivang continues with his googlies, on the shorter side, on middle and leg. Rinku makes room and carves it to backward point. Rinku takes a couple of steps down the track and Angkrish responds by setting off for the run. After seeing Eshan Malinga move to his left and gather the ball, Singh turns his back on his partner but Raghuvanshi is at a point of no return by then. Malinga picks it up cleanly and fires in a throw at the bowling end. Shivang gets behind the stumps and collects the ball on the half-volley. Angkrish tries to get back, but in vain, as Kumar is quick enough to break the stumps.

Nicely bowled! Nitish Kumar Reddy hits the length hard and just around off. Anukul Roy looks to cut it away but gets beaten due to the extra bounce.

OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Nitish Kumar Reddy keeps it at a similar length and in that channel outside off. Anukul Roy stays back in his crease and opens the face of his bat to run it down to third man. His feet go nowhere, and he ends up edging it back to the keeper, where Ishan Kishan makes no mistake. 120/3 becomes 120/5 for KKR.

Dug in short, over middle. Ramandeep Singh rides the bounce and pulls it to deep square leg for a single.

On a back of a length, on middle. Rinku angles it wide of point and turns the strike over.

Slightly fuller in the channel, Ramandeep Singh guides it with an open bat face to backward point.

On a hard length, outside off. Ramandeep Singh shuffles across to get the pull shot away. The ball gets big on him and he miscues it off the splice in front of mid off. The batters cross for a single.

FOUR! Innovative and effective! Flighted delivery, full and on off. Ramandeep Singh switches his stance and brings out the reverse. He gets down on a knee and plays it uppishly but wide of backward point for a four. 100 needed off 47 balls.

Shorter now, on off. Ramandeep turns it in front of deep mid-wicket for one.

Fuller in length, on off. Rinku pushes it to the right of cover for a single.

A bit short, turning away from the right-hander. Ramandeep reaches out and cuts it to deep backward point. They cross.

SIX! Lovely shot! Shivang Kumar tosses it up but this is a bit too full, in line with the off stump. Rinku clears the front leg and opens up the front hip to go inside out over extra cover for a six.

Shivang Kumar responds with a googly, on a nagging length. Rinku backs away and chops it down to cover for another single. 14 runs off the over. KKR need 90 runs in 42 balls.

Not all that short to play the cut, outside off. Rinku bunts it from the crease to backward point.

On a length, around leg. Rinku wrists it towards deep mid-wicket and crosses over.

Not in control but Ramandeep Singh gets away with it! Reddy bangs it in short and gets it high enough to trouble the batter, on off. Ramandeep tries to take it on but slices it off the upper half of the bat towards the vacant mid off region. They cross.

OUT! CAUGHT! KKR's chances in the chase take a massive dent. Wickets off successive overs for Reddy. In the corridor, on a good length. Rinku throws his hands at the ball. The ball goes off a thickish outside edge to short third, where Jaydev Unadkat is stationed on the edge of the ring. He snaffles it to his right. 

SIX! Oh, hello! Reddy goes short but the height does not trouble Narine at all. Sunil swings away on the leg side with the angle. It comes at waist height and Narine pulls it over deep mid-wicket for a six.

DROPPED, SIX!  Harsh Dubey has tipped it over the ropes. How costly will this prove to be? Reddy brings out the slower one and goes full on middle and leg. Narine clears the front leg and swings down to the ground. Hits it down to long on, where Harsh Dubey leaps to take the catch over his head. He had the option of taking a step back but it seems like he was not aware of where the boundary cushions were. The ball clips his fingertips and goes over the fence. 76 needed off 36 balls.

Short and on middle. Singh pulls. This goes more off the top edge but wide of deep mid-wicket for one.

Wide! Malinga slides it across the left-hander, on a length. Sunil Narine lets it be. Wide not given and Narine takes the review. He succeeds in overturning the on-field call as the ball was just outside the tramline.

Wide! This is wider than the previous ball, on a length. Sunil lets it pass.

On a back of a length, flirting with the tramline. Sunil Narine flashes but does not pick the change of pace and the ball goes under the blade.

OUT! CAUGHT! A well-judged catch by Aniket Verma. Malinga serves the slower one but attacks the stumps this time with a full ball. Narine gets the front leg out of the way and swings for the hills. He is early into the shot and this comes right off the toe end of the bat. Harsh Dubey put down a similar chance in the previous over but Verma is aware of his surroundings. He times the leap to perfection whilst staying side on and takes the catch over his head. He seemed to lose the ball in the lights but managed to hold on.

FOUR! Too straight and Tyagi gets it away! Angled in at the hips, on the back of a length. Kartik glances it down to deep fine leg for a boundary.

Too quick for Tyagi! Eshan Malinga digs it in short, over middle. Kartik Tyagi ducks but is late in doing so. The ball pings him on the helmet and goes towards deep fine leg. A leg bye taken.

OUT! CAUGHT! Two wickets in the over for Eshan Malinga, and if there was any hope left for KKR, this should be it. Malinga bowls the slower one, on a good length, outside off. Ramandeep hangs deep in the crease and slashes at it. The ball flies off a thickish outside to backward point, where Jaydev Unadkat takes a safe catch around his waist by moving to his left and dropping to his knees.

Slower one, on a length and on off, Kartik Tyagi looks to work it away but his head falls over and he misses.

Short of a length and on middle, takes pace off, Kartik Tyagi backs away and swats it to long on for a single.

Good length and just around off, Vaibhav Arora has a poke at it but misses.

On a length and on off, Vaibhav Arora pushes it towards cover for a run.

OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Jaydev Unadkat goes pace on, serves this full and on off from around the wicket. Kartik Tyagi stays back and looks to flick it, closing the face of the bat. He only manages a thin bottom edge back to the keeper, where Ishan Kishan takes an easy catch. However, Tyagi takes the review here, but UltraEdge shows a clear spike when the ball is close to the bat. The on-field call of Out remains and SRH are just one wicket away from the win now.

OUT! DRAGGED ON! Jaydev Unadkat wraps things up, and SUNRISERS HYDERABAD WIN BY 65 RUNS. This is a wide yorker, just around off. Varun Chakaravarthy stays back and throws his bat at it, but only manages to get an inside edge back onto the stumps. Not the ideal start for KKR at home, and they have a lot of thinking to do ahead of the next games.
