Almost 500 plus runs in just 40 odd overs...

What an exhilerating contest this was and SRH come out on top in the IPL's biggest run-fest! Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Aiden Markram and of course Heinrich Klaasen sent the ball to all parts as Sunrisers raced to the highest score in IPL history, as well as in any domestic or franchise T20 league. But Mumbai Indians gave them a scare as Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan began with a bang. Tilak Varma continued their momentum hammering 64 off 34. But a tight three overs in the middle that saw Sunrisers concede just 18 runs turned it around and David's 22-ball 42 and Shepherd's 6-ball 15 came too late. There will be questions today as well about Hardik's captaincy, and his batting.

What a wild game of cricket!! The 35,000 or so at the stadium are a part of a historic game, a T20 game with the most sixes ever and the most runs scored collectively. Let the margin of defeat not deceive you, because this game was a lot closer till the second strategic time-out. Mumbai Indians got off to a solid start, as Rohit Sharma went on the attack against Jaydev Unadkat, while Kishan took down Bhuvneshwar Kumar from the other end. The openers got to 56 after just 3.2 overs, before Kishan holed out to Shahbaz. Rohit followed him shortly, as he skewed his pull shot against a Pat Cummins bouncer. Mumbai however rebuild with Naman Dhir and Tilak Varma, as the two youngsters plays aggressive cricket to keep the asking rate in check. Varma attacked the spinners, scoring sixes for fun to get a fifty. However, the SRH skipper Cummins returned after the time-out, and got the much needed wicket of the southpaw. Hardik and Tim David huffed and puffed after, but SRH's pacers were superb - hiding the ball outside off and offering no pace. The chase never took shape after that, as MI lose their second game as well.

Hardik Pandya: "The wicket was good but 277, no matter how good or bad you bowl, if the opposition get 277 that means they batted very well. [Bowlers] were good. It was tough out there. Close to 500 runs were scored so the wicket was helping the batters. We could have tried a few different things, but we have a young bowling attack and I liked what I saw today. If the ball goes this much in the crowd, it's definitely different to run around and complete the overs in time. Everyone batted really well, counting Tilak, Ro, Ishan. There are just few things we need to do right and we'll be alright. [On Maphaka] I think he was fantastic you know. Coming into your first game and getting overwhelmed by this kind of crowd. He showed great heart. He has the skillset"

Happy for SRH
