Sunrisers Hyderabad won the toss and decided to field instead of batting, but in this case, Chennai Super Kings' 213-run collection went against their decision. Sunrisers Hyderabad's captain won the toss and decided to field, thinking that the extra moisture during the night might make it difficult for the bowlers to bowl and Sunrisers Hyderabad could easily win. But this advanced thinking of the captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad was not applicable for tomorrow's match because of which Sunrisers Hyderabad had to be defeated by 78 runs in tomorrow's match.
Tushar Deshpande is considered as the hero to win this match today. Chennai Super Kings would not have easily won if he had not dismissed the top order batsmen in succession. Both Mustafizur Rahman and Matheesa Pathirana bowled brilliantly in today's match as Sunrisers Hyderabad were bowled out for just 134 runs.
As in the 1st match yesterday too, Sunrisers Hyderabad won the toss and decided to bowl. But could not restrict Chennai to runs as much as possible. In the first match between the two teams as well, Hyderabad opted to bowl and restricted Chennai to 165 runs, leading to Hyderabad's victory. But in yesterday's match, Chennai managed to give a huge run target. Ruturaj Gaikwad batted very well he was dismissed for 98 runs, he failed to score a century for just 2 runs. Daryl Mitchell's performance was good, he was dismissed for 52 runs.
Yes, Tushar Deshpande's bowling performance was crucial in Chennai's win yesterday. He dismissed the top-order batsmen quickly which resulted in Hyderabad losing in the end. Chennai's bowling and batting line were both good in yesterday's match.
