Another close game and a last-ball victory in this amazing competition.because it is the best league in world cricket. Today, SRH demonstrated to us that a game is not ended until the last ball is bowled, or more precisely, till the last ball that is legal. Yashasvi Jaswal and Jos Buttler, who combined for 54 in the first five overs, gave RR another quick start. Samson, who came in third, appeared to be in a similar frame of mind. Together, Samson and Buttler scored 138, helping the club reach a staggering total of 214. Buttler had the highest total with 95 (59), and Skipper Samson was still unbeaten with 66 from 38. With a different opening combination in response, SRH came out swinging and attacked the opposition from ball one. All four of the leaders received starts and followed the run chase’s pace. The top scorer was Abhishek Sharma, who had 55 points from 34. Yuzi Chahal brought back the attack in the 16th over, dismissing Klaasen, and then picked Tripathi and Markram in the game’s 18th over to bring RR back into the contest. Particularly with two new hitters at the crease, scoring 41 runs off of 12 balls appeared to be an extremely daunting task for SRH. However, Glenn Phillips’ three sixes and a four against Kuldip Yadav completely altered the situation. Prior to Shimron Hetmyer’s outstanding catch that led to the dangerous Phillips’ dismissal, SRH had momentum on their side. Samad had to score 17 runs off of Sandeep Sharma’s final over. Under pressure, Sharma was making effective deliveries and even managed to dismiss Samad, but he was unaware that he had overstepped. The most exciting conclusion we have witnessed this year was Abdul Samad hitting a six off the final ball to send the team home. It’s still anyone’s game as the table has been reset.
Player of the Game is Glenn Phillips.
Glenn Phillips said “There were only two possible outcomes in this situation. I’m glad to have won this one. The team needed this today, so we’re all here to fulfil our jobs. It’s great that it worked out, and I had a blast outside today. I was disappointed when the slot machine’s actual ball did not clear the gate. With 17 needed off the last over, I felt like I left a lot out there, but Samad did what he did, and we obviously had a little bit of luck that the no ball.
