Cricket Scorecard

Sandeep Sharma is caught for a quick chat. Tells that he didn't know about the fact that he has taken the wicket of Kohli 7 times. Says that he is one of the best batsman and it feels really well to get his wicket. Tells that he is working hard on bowling the outswingers. Says that the knuckle ball is coming off well too. Adds that he has been working on that ball for more than 3 years now. Feels that the ball is getting wet a bit now as the dew is starting to come.

The total is not a huge one by Bangalore but they will be looking to bowl well and apply some pressure early on. They will have to bowl really well if they want to win this game. Hyderabad need to win this game to stay alive in the tournament and they will want to come out and chase this down. An interesting second essay of play awaits. Join us for the chase in a bit.

The bowling by Hyderabad was brilliant throughout. Sandeep Sharma started things off for Hyderabad and they did not look back after that. He got rid of Padikkal and Kohli in the Powerplay. All the five bowlers got a wicket but it was Natarajan and Sandeep who were the pick of the lot and they both picked up 2 wickets. 

The batting by Bangalore started off on the back foot as they lost Padikkal and Virat Kohli right in the Powerplay. AB de Villiers and Josh Philippe tried to revive the batting with a partnership but it did not last long and they both fell in quick succession. Sundar and Mann tried to add some more runs towards the end but Bangalore will feel that they are atleast 30-40 runs short of a par score. Not the best showing with the bat by Bangalore.

This has been a brilliant show with the ball for Hyderabad! The Men in Orange will be proud of how they have bundled this Bangalore batting line up for just 120 on the board.

DRINKS! Hyderabad are cruising at this stage. They have got rid of all the dangerous batters that Bangalore have and now Bangalore's lower middle order batting is out there, Gurkeerat and Washington. Hyderabad will be looking to scalp more wickets and they will want to restrict them to a low total.

Sandeep Sharma will start proceedings with the ball for Hyderabad. Here we go...

Bangalore skipper, Virat Kohli, says he wanted to bat first anyway. Says that they think the wicket will get slower and slower. Informs that Navdeep Saini and Isuru Udana return to replace Shivam Dube and Dale Steyn. On their last game, Kohli says that it was an odd game. Feels that they did well to take the game till the end, defending the total. Adds that a collective performance is around the corner.

The captain of Hyderabad, David Warner, says that there is a single change as Vijay Shankar is out of this game due to injury and adds that Saha, fortunately, is fit for this game. Says that they need to have a positive attitude and come out fresh and they want to win both the games. Tells that is how he approches every game and he wants to do well. Says that they have played a single game in this ground and it seemed to have slowed down and they will need to see how things go.

Bangalore (Playing XI) - Devdutt Padikkal, Josh Philippe (WK), Virat Kohli (C), AB de Villiers, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Navdeep Saini (IN FOR SHIVAM DUBE), Chris Morris, Washington Sundar, Isuru Udana (IN FOR DALE STEYN), Mohammed Siraj, Yuzvendra Chahal.

Hyderabad (Playing XI) - David Warner (C), Kane Williamson, Manish Pandey, Abhishek Sharma (IN FOR VIJAY SHANKAR), Wriddhiman Saha (WK), Jason Holder, Abdul Samad, Rashid Khan, Shahbaz Nadeem, Sandeep Sharma, T Natarajan.

TOSS - Time for the spin of the coin. Up it goes and it lands in David Warner's favor. Hyderabad will BOWL first.

What about Hyderabad? Well, they have been one of the most inconsistent sides of the tournament. They thumped Delhi in their last encounter and would be eager to take that confidence in this game as well. Both batting and bowling worked in tandem and managed to stay in the race to the playoffs. A defeat here will be curtains for Warner's men. Let's see how things pan out for them. Stay with us to find out the toss and team update.

It is almost time for the 2nd game of Super Saturday. It is the southern derby here in Sharjah. Bangalore vs Hyderabad. One team is sitting at the 2nd spot on the points table and a win will take them through while the other one has to win both their games to stay in the contention of the playoffs.

Let's talk about Kohli's Bangalore first. They looked to be in top form but a slump came and now they are staring at a hat-trick of defeats. In their last game, they were taken down by Mumbai after failing to put a good score on the board, despite getting a decent start. With Mumbai's batting in full flow, it was always going to be tough and that's how it panned out. However, Bangalore will remember their first game of the tournament where they went past the challenge of Hyderabad to start their

Sandeep Sharma is caught for a quick chat. Tells that he didn't know about the fact that he has taken the wicket of Kohli 7 times. Says that he is one of the best batsman and it feels really well to get his wicket. Tells that he is working hard on bowling the outswingers. Says that the knuckle ball is coming off well too. Adds that he has been working on that ball for more than 3 years now. Feels that the ball is getting wet a bit now as the dew is starting to come.

The total is not a huge one by Bangalore but they will be looking to bowl well and apply some pressure early on. They will have to bowl really well if they want to win this game. Hyderabad need to win this game to stay alive in the tournament and they will want to come out and chase this down. An interesting second essay of play awaits. Join us for the chase in a bit.

The bowling by Hyderabad was brilliant throughout. Sandeep Sharma started things off for Hyderabad and they did not look back after that. He got rid of Padikkal and Kohli in the Powerplay. All the five bowlers got a wicket but it was Natarajan and Sandeep who were the pick of the lot and they both picked up 2 wickets. 

The batting by Bangalore started off on the back foot as they lost Padikkal and Virat Kohli right in the Powerplay. AB de Villiers and Josh Philippe tried to revive the batting with a partnership but it did not last long and they both fell in quick succession. Sundar and Mann tried to add some more runs towards the end but Bangalore will feel that they are atleast 30-40 runs short of a par score. Not the best showing with the bat by Bangalore.

This has been a brilliant show with the ball for Hyderabad! The Men in Orange will be proud of how they have bundled this Bangalore batting line up for just 120 on the board.

Feels that they did well to take the game till the end, defending the total. Adds that a collective performance is around the corner.

The captain of Hyderabad, David Warner, says that there is a single change as Vijay Shankar is out of this game due to injury and adds that Saha, fortunately, is fit for this game. Says that they need to have a positive attitude and come out fresh and they want to win both the games. Tells that is how he approches every game and he wants to do well.

TOSS - Time for the spin of the coin. Up it goes and it lands in David Warner's favor. Hyderabad will BOWL first.

What about Hyderabad? Well, they have been one of the most inconsistent sides of the tournament. They thumped Delhi in their last encounter and would be eager to take that confidence in this game as well. Both batting and bowling worked in tandem and managed to stay in the race to the playoffs. A defeat here will be curtains for Warner's men. Let's see how things pan out for them. Stay with us to find out the toss and team update.

It is almost time for the 2nd game of Super Saturday. It is the southern derby here in Sharjah. Bangalore vs Hyderabad. One team is sitting at the 2nd spot on the points table and a win will take them through while the other one has to win both their games to stay in the contention of the playoffs.

Let's talk about Kohli's Bangalore first. They looked to be in top form but a slump came and now they are staring at a hat-trick of defeats. In their last game, they were taken down by Mumbai after failing to put a good score on the board, despite getting a decent start. With Mumbai's batting in full flow, it was always going to be tough and that's how it panned out. However, Bangalore will remember their first game of the tournament where they went past the challenge of Hyderabad to start their
