Milestone
Another last-ball finish in the IPL and another Sunrisers Hyderabad choke it was. They only can see the heavens and ask how? But nothing to take away from Nitish Rana and Co. as they held their nerves to steal this match from SRH.
For now, it is me AkshayaKrishna Polya signing off on behalf of my co-commentators Ninaad Dixit and Akshay Bhide, who, alongside our scorer/analyst Paras Yadav brought you all the live-action of this thriller. We will meet again. Until then, it's cheers!

Varun Chakravarthy: "Yeah, my heartbeat was touching 200. I am fine now. But I wanted to challenge them to the longer end. The ball was slipping from my hand and my best bet was the longer side. My first over went for 12 runs, Markram hit me for two fours and that is how the game goes. Nothing like that. Sometimes I tend to go through the emotions and that's why I go off-track. Last year I was bowling at 85 kmph and now it is coming off nicely. Last year I was trying too many deliveries and wasn't at my best. I went back tried to get better and realized that I need to work on the revolutions. I am feeling good now."
Player of the Match: Varun Chakravarthy
Nitish Rana (Kolkata Knight Riders Captain): "We bowled few balls which were not according to the plan and we were moving away from the game. I gambled twice with Shardul, Vaibhav and the way they dimissed Aiden Markram and Klaasen, that's when we were back in the game.
Both were important wickets. The required rate was not much so if any one of them would have batted till the end, then the result would have been in their favor.
I was thinking of giving Shardul the last over but actually I went to take some advice from him as I was having a doubt whether to bowl a fast bowler or a spinner. Then I backed my best bowler and he got me the 2 points.
I try to give the best bowler the tough overs on a particular day whether it is Sunil, Suyash or Varun."
