Ishan's brilliance takes SRH to win

A fine knock by Ishan Kishan (94) and some good bowling by Pat Cummins (3/28) and Eshan Malinga (2/37) on Friday helped Sunrisers Hyderabad finish their league campaign in the Indian Premier League with a 42-run win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru, at the Ekana Cricket Stadium here.

LUCKNOW:

Kishan, who scored a century in the opening match against Rajasthan Royals, showed his might once again, hitting an unbeaten 94 off 48 balls with the help of seven boundaries and five sixes as SRH posted 231/6 after being sent to bat first.

In reply, RCB, who are still at the second position in the IPL table with 17 points, got a good start as Phil Salt and Virat Kohli put on 80 runs for the opening wicket partnership but they couldn't cross the line as Sri Lankan pacer Malinga and finished their innings on 189 in 19.5 overs.
