Hyderabad, May 2
Sunrisers Hyderbad pulled off a nervy one-run win over Rajasthan Royals in their Indian Premier League match here on Thursday.
Nitish Reddy (76 not out) and Travis Head (58) scored half centuries to help Sunrisers Hyderabad post 201/3 after opting to bat.
In reply, Riyan Parag (77) and opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (67) stitched a 133-run stand after Bhuvneshwar Kumar picked two wickets in the first over.
But Sunrisers bowlers made a strong comeback to snatch the win off the last ball.
Earlier, SRH were unable to capitalise on the Powerplay, losing the wickets of Abhishek Sharma and Anmolpreet Singh.
However, Head and Reddy scored 96 runs off 57 deliveries to resurrect SRH's innings while Heinrich Klaasen (42 not out of 19) provided the final flurry.
