If there was any bowling attack capable of taming this star-studded Hyderabad batting lineup, it was Bengaluru's.

The Royal Challengers restrained the Sunrisers to an above-par total in the first innings, setting up a blockbuster run-chase in Uppal. Bengaluru's attack was clinical and well-rounded, striking at perfect moments to make sure that Hyderabad could never really get going the way they have in the past. Ishan Kishan and Babar Azam batted wonderfully but failed to go big, leaving Rahul Tewatia and Shahbaz Ahmed the arduous task of dragging Hyderabad to a respectable total, which they did with crucial fifties batting alongside a wilting tail. Rare failures from the Hyderabad openers, Rishabh Pant and Glenn Phillips kept the Sunrisers at bay to an above-par first innings score.

After that first innings performance from the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, it truly was all to play for and all to lose for the Sunrisers Hyderabad, who set out to defend 284 in front of a packed home crowd in Uppal, with a spot in the second qualifier on the line against either the Gujarat Titans or the two-time champions, the Rajasthan Royals.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru broke the hearts of Hyderabad fans and catapulted themselves into the second qualifier on Wednesday!

Sunrisers Hyderabad's greatest strength remained their batting throughout the season, but an absolute clinic with the ball nullified that, leaving their bowlers to their own devices in a must-win contest. Yashasvi Jaiswal had a touch of brilliance about him, which, coupled with the flying start he and Prabhsimran Singh got the Royal Challengers off to, set in motion one of the most convincing playoff victories in Indian One-Day Championship history. Sunrisers Hyderabad were thumped in this must-win eliminator contest in their own backyard as fans of the franchise saw their hearts get shattered into a million little pieces at the hands of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

Code:
SUNRISERS HYDERABAD  283/9     50.0 overs
ROYAL CHALLENGERS    284/5     42.5 overs

Royal Challengers Bengaluru won by 5 wickets (with 43 balls remaining)

Player of the Match: Yashasvi Jaiswal (Royal Challengers Bengaluru)

 
We are finally clicking; feels like we have most bases covered.
Bowlers have been simply phenomenal; SRH have the scariest batting unit in the league and we delivered, especially Sumit Kumar who has been a revelation with the ball

For the most part, the Titans didn't put a foot wrong, but the individual brilliance of Tristan Stubbs and Shubman Gill, accompanied by supporting roles from Marcus Stoinis and Ravindra Jadeja, pushed the Royals to an imposing total on a rank turner. Yuzvendra Chahal and Lalit Yadav made the most of these conditions, with Cameron Green chipping in with three crucial wickets of his own, but the lack of raw pace of either Haris Rauf or Mayank Yadav hampered the Titans, who had their woes exacerbated furthermore by AM Ghazanfar completely ghosting the big game. With a target of 281 set for the home team, a scintillating second innings chase awaits Ahmedabad.


Target: Gujarat Titans need 281 runs to win​


 
280 on such a pitch, I will take it anyday! And the pitch will surely slow down in the 2nd innings and we have the bowlers to defend this total. Gill, Stubbs, Stoinis and Jadeja deserve the pat on the back to get us to that total.

Our captain got out early but that first over set the tone for us. Reading the thread title, I am a bit worried as we too have gone with spin heavy attack with Stoinis, Reddy and Stokes in supporting roles. But I feel we will pull this off and advance to the finale where the third IODC trophy awaits us!
