SRH vs LSG Highlights, IPL 2022: Lucknow Super Giants beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by 12 runs

Drinks! Nicholas Pooran has pulled up his socks and has put his side in a match-winning position after Hyderabad seemed to be on the downfall in the middle overs with Aiden Markram and Rahul Tripathi both getting out. Krunal Pandya got Lucknow back into the match with his two wickets but from here on, Lucknow need more wickets to stay in the match. 41 needed off 24 balls and at an asking rate of just 10 runs per over should be fairly simple for Hyderabad but we have seen stranger things happen. Also, Andrew Tye is back into the attack. He still has a couple of overs to go but has been a bit expensive so far.

Andrew Tye to Washington Sundar, NOT OUT! A slower one, outside off. Sundar mistimes his drive to covers and sets off for a single. The fielder in the cover fires a direct hit at the bowler's end. There is an appeal and the umpire takes it upstairs. The replays though show that Sundar is well inside his crease. So a single in the end.

Ravi Bishnoi to Nicholas Pooran, FOUR! No, he can't! Pooran spoils the over with a quality shot off the last ball. 41 needed now from 24 balls! Coming to the ball - It is a fuller delivery on off;. Pooran leans forward and creams it through extra-cover for a boundary. This is the class of Pooran and now Lucknow will be feeling some pressure.

Ravi Bishnoi to Washington Sundar, A fuller delivery on off. Sundar drives it to long off for a single. Can Ravi Bishnoi finish off this over well now?

Ravi Bishnoi to Washington Sundar, A fuller delivery on middle. Sundar works it to deep mid-wicket for a couple.

Ravi Bishnoi to Washington Sundar, Dot ball now! Lovely delivery. He pitches this googly, around off. It turns away and beats Sundar as he looks to drive it away. Quinton de Kock collects the ball and whips the bails off. There is an appeal and the leg umpire takes it upstairs. The replays show that the back leg never went out of the crease or in the air so Sundar will continue.

Ravi Bishnoi to Nicholas Pooran, So two singles from the first two balls. Shorter and outside off. Pooran cuts it to deep point for a single.

Ravi Bishnoi (3-0-20-0) is back on.

Ravi Bishnoi to Washington Sundar, A fuller delivery on middle. Sundar works it to deep square leg for a single.

Jason Holder to Nicholas Pooran, FOUR! 15 off the over and Hyderabad back on top of proceedings here! Fuller and sliding onto the pads, Pooran walks towards the bowler and clips it past square leg for a boundary. Jason Holder is not happy with himself. 50 needed now off the remaining 30 deliveries.

Jason Holder to Nicholas Pooran, WIDE! Jason Holder tries to bowl it full and wide and wide and shape it away but misses his mark. Wided.

Jason Holder to Nicholas Pooran, Close shave! Holder comes from 'round the wicket and serves a yorker outside off. Pooran drives it firmly to mid off and sets off for the single. KL Rahul just misses the shy at the bowler's end. Pooran might have been a goner had that hit.

Jason Holder to Washington Sundar, Back of a length, angled across off. Washington Sundar stands tall and punches it off the back foot through extra cover. Evin Lewis has to cover a lot of ground to his left from the point fence but is able to cut it off. Three taken.

Jason Holder to Nicholas Pooran, A low full toss, wide of off and this is sliced away behind point for a single. Pooran wants the second run but has to settle for one.

Jason Holder to Nicholas Pooran, FOUR! Nicholas Pooran upping the ante now. Short from Holder and slanted across. It sits up nicely and Pooran pulls it well in front of square for a boundary.

Krunal Pandya (3-0-17-1) is back on.

Krunal Pandya to Rahul Tripathi, OUT! CAUGHT! Krunal Pandya comes back into the attack and maybe, just maybe picks up the wicket that turns the game in Lucknow's favour. Nicholas Pooran hasn't got going and hence Rahul Tripathi has to take the risk and it doesn't pay off. Speared into middle, Tripathi gets low and gets a decent connection on the slog-sweep but hits it straight down the throat of the fielder at the mid-wicket fence. Ravi Bishnoi takes a sharp catch and Hyderabad crumbling under pressure.

Ravi Bishnoi to Nicholas Pooran, Beaten again! Nicholas Pooran does seem a bit out of touch at the moment. The cut shot is one of his favorite shots but he just can't connect. A touch fuller and a bit wider, going across. Pooran misses the cut yet again. Just 4 off the over.

Ravi Bishnoi to Nicholas Pooran, Quicker again, at 97.3 kph and sliding across the off stump. Pooran goes for the cut shot but gets beaten past the outside edge.

Avesh Khan to Rahul Tripathi, A bit of an awkward bounce for Evin Lewis and he fumbles. Full and wide, slashed away towards deep cover for a couple of runs by Tripathi.

Avesh Khan to Nicholas Pooran, On the bounce! Banged in short and Nicholas Pooran almost pulls it straight into the palms of the man at long on. Single taken.

Avesh Khan to Nicholas Pooran, Beaten! Khan pitches it up on off stump and this one just nips away a touch after pitching. There's extra bounce on offer as well and Pooran is taken aback.

Krunal Pandya to Rahul Tripathi, This one slides on with the arm as well, from outside off and Tripathi cuts it straight towards point.

Krunal Pandya to Rahul Tripathi, Just drifting down the leg side. It's the one that comes on with the arm from Krunal Pandya. Rahul Tripathi looks to work it leg side but misses and gets rapped on the pads. Stifled appeal from the keeper and nothing more.

Krunal Pandya to Aiden Markram, OUT! CAUGHT! Soft dismissal for Aiden Markram and has he now given Lucknow a way back into the match? Krunal Pandya pushes it quicker and fuller, around off. Markram makes a bit of room and looks to go inside-out. Markram neither gets the elevation nor the timing and hits it straight towards the fielder at extra cover. KL Rahul just puts his hands up above his head and takes a comfortable catch. The partnership is broken and Pandya is pumped up.
