IPL 2024: Bowlers Excel As DC Keep Playoffs Hopes Alive With 20-run Win Over Rajasthan

Indian Premier League: Kuldeep Yadav and Mukesh Kumar bowled superb spells as bowlers came to the fore as Delhi Capitals kept alive their hopes of reaching the Playoffs of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 with a 20-run win over Rajasthan Royals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Tuesday. After Jake Fraser-McGurk and Abishek Porel slammed fifties in contrasting fashion, while Tristan Stubbs applied finishing touches with a 20-ball 41 to propel Delhi Capitals to 221/8, Kuldeep and Mukesh bowled decisive spells of 2-25 and 2-30 respectively to restrict Rajasthan Royals to 201/8. The win sees DC jump to fifth place in the points table and are now tied with Lucknow Super Giants, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings at 12 points. It is also the second straight time that RR, despite a brilliant 86 from captain Sanju Samson, have failed to complete a chase and need to wait longer to seal their Playoff spot. Khaleel Ahmed struck in his first over as he had Yashasvi Jaiswal miscuing a slower bouncer to mid-off. Sanju Samson upped the ante with sublime timing on his loft, drive, flat-batted smashes, punch, flick and piercing the gaps in cover with precision to hit five fours and three sixes in the power-play. But RR lost Jos Buttler in the last over of the six-over phase, as he chopped onto his stumps off Axar Patel, meaning his catch being dropped by Tristan Stubbs didnt become costly for DC. With Axar and Kuldeep operating in tandem, DC forced a slowdown by giving 25 runs in overs 7-10, though Riyan Parag got two sixes and a four. That effort paid off as Parag was castled by a slower ball from Rasikh Salam which hit the top of off-stump. Samson went on to get his fifth IPL 2024 fifty in 28 balls by clearing his front leg and smacking Kuldeep over long-on for six off a free hit. Sitting deep in the crease, Samson hit Rasikh for six over long-on, followed by cutting and muscling him for four and six respectively. With 91 runs needed off 42 balls, Samson just cleared cover off Ishant for four, before Shubham Dubey punched and muscled the pacer for four and six respectively to take 17 runs off the 14th over. Khaleel giving away four wides in an 11-run 15th over meant the equation for RR became 63 runs off 30 balls for the win. Samsons fine knock came to an end in dramatic circumstances when Shai Hope took a screamer of a catch at long-on, just millimetres away from the boundary rope off Mukesh. Though he walked up to the umpire in protest, it was in vain as Samson had to depart for 86. From there, DC came back in the match as Shubham Dubey holed out to long-on off Khaleel. Kuldeep trapped Donovan Ferreira plumb lbw and had Ravichandran Ashwin holing out to long-on in his final over. Despite a slow-over rate penalty in the final over, where DC could field only four fielders outside the 30-yard circle, Mukesh castled Rovman Powell, which was enough to get DC a crucial win. Brief scores: Delhi Capitals 221/8 in 20 overs (Abishek Porel 65, Jake Fraser-McGurk 50; Ravichandran Ashwin 3-24) beat Rajasthan Royals 201/8 in 20 overs (Sanju Samson 86; Kuldeep Yadav 2-25, Mukesh Kumar 2-30) by 20 runs

Mayawati removes nephew Akash Anand as 'successor' till he gains 'full maturity'

LUCKNOW: Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati on Tuesday night said she is divesting her nephew Akash Anand of his responsibilities as the party's national co-ordinator and her successor, barely five months after she had anointed him. Announcing it on X, the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister said she has taken the decision in the interest of the party and the movement till the time Anand gains full maturity. She said her brother and Akash's father Anand Kumar will continue to fulfil his responsibilities as before. The surprise decision came on the day voting was held for the third phase of the Lok Sabha polls in the country. In a post in Hindi on X, Mayawati said, BSP is also a movement for self-respect and self-esteem of Baba Saheb Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar and social change for which Shri Kanshi Ram ji and I have dedicated our entire lives and a new generation is also being prepared to give it momentum. She said, In this direction, along with promoting other people in the party, I had declared Shri Akash Anand as the National Coordinator and his successor, but in the larger interest of the party and the movement, he is being divested of both these important responsibilities until he attains full maturity. UP records 57.34% voter turnout in phase-III amid complaints from various pockets Mayawati said Anand Kumar will continue to fulfil his responsibilities in the party and the movement as before. Therefore, the leadership of BSP is not going to shy away from making every kind of sacrifice in the interest of the party and the movement and in taking forward the caravan of Baba Saheb Dr Ambedkar, she added. On April 28, Akash Anand was booked in a case of violation of Model Code of Conduct along with four others for allegedly using objectionable language at a poll rally in Sitapur. The action had come after the district administration's took suo motu cognisance of Anand's speech at the rally. This government is a bulldozer government and a government of traitors. The party that leaves its youth hungry and enslaves its elderly is a terrorist government. Taliban runs such a government in Afghanistan, he had said in criticism of the BJP-led state government. Besides Anand, BSP candidates Mahendra Yadav, Shyam Awasthi, and Akshay Kalra and rally organiser Vikas Rajvanshi were booked in the matter, Superintendent of Police (Sitapur) Chakresh Mishra had then said. The case was registered under sections IPC 171C (undue influence at elections), 153B (imputation, assertions prejudicial to national integration) and 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant) and section 125 of the Representation of People Act.

UP records 57.34% voter turnout in phase-III amid complaints from various pockets

LUCKNOW: The trend of a low turnout in Uttar Pradesh continued as the state recorded a voting percentage of over 57 per cent across the 10 seats that went to the polls in the third phase of the Lok Sabha elections on Tuesday. According to Election Commission figures, Agra witnessed 53.99 per cent voting, Aonla 57.08 per cent, Badaun 54.05 per cent, Bareilly 57.88 per cent, Etah 59.17 per cent, Fatehpur Sikri 57.09 per cent, Ferozabad 58.22 per cent, Hathras 55.36 per cent, Mainpuri 58.59 per cent and Sambhal 62.81 per cent. The overall voter turnout in UP in Phase-III was 57.34 per cent and the figure is expected to be revised later. The voting percentage was lower than the 60.023 per cent in the corresponding phase in 2019. With the conclusion of phase-III, the fate of candidates in 26 of the 80 Lok Sabha constituencies of Uttar Pradesh has been sealed in EVMs. The third phase of ensuing Lok Sabha polls was significant for the first family of the Samajwadi Party as three members of the Yadav clan were in the fray -- SP chief Akhilesh Yadavs wife Dimple Yadav in Mainpuri, the bastion of party patriarch late Mulayam Singh Yadav, Ram Gopal Yadavs son Akshay in Ferozabad and Shivpal Yadavs son Aditya in Badaun. Meanwhile, during the day, a group of Muslim women in Badaun's Sahaswan assembly segment claimed that they were stopped from casting their vote. They also alleged that the men accompanying them were beaten up by police. However, Badaun District Magistrate Manoj Kumar refuted the charges, saying people who had already cast their votes were gathering unnecessarily and police had to move them away to maintain law and order. Samajwadi Party leaders remarks on Ram temple stirs controversy amid Lok Sabha polls Incidents of poll boycott were also reported from a number of places including Dhoranpur village of Badaun. Villagers boycotted the poll for the first three hours, saying their demand for a road was not fulfilled. Later, a sub-divisional magistrate reached the village and persuaded the local people to vote. Reports of poll boycotts also came in from Nagla Jawahar, Neem Kheria and Nagla Umar villages in Ferozabad. However, later with the district administration's intervention, the villagers cast their votes. SP chief Akhilesh Yadav alleged that BJP workers were preparing to loot booths in Mainpuri without giving details. He also alleged rigging at some places. In another allegation, BJP leader Prem Shankar Shakya said stones were pelted on him when he was going to vote along with the party's former district unit chief Pradeep Chauhan and others in Mainpuri's Kusmara area. SP Badaun candidate Aditya Yadav alleged that the local administration did not allow party supporters to vote at various booths in Ujhani Sahaswan. In Sambhal, SP candidate Zia-ur-Rehman Barq alleged that a circle officer doubled up as a BJP worker and snatched bags and voter slips from his party's workers and detained them.

IPL 2024: The Most Interesting Phase Of The Tournament Has Started Now, Says Parthiv Patel On Race To Playoffs

Indian Premier League: Parthiv Patel, the former India mens wicketkeeper-batter, believes that the race to playoffs intensifying in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 with every outcome, it has led to the commencement of the most interesting phase in the competition. Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders have 16 points each, while Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Lucknow Super Giants are at 12 points each. Delhi Capitals are also in the fray with 10 points and can even reach 16 points, though their net run rate is in the negative. The most interesting phase of the tournament has started now. The teams who were losing matches and were at the bottom half of the table are now winning games by beating the table-toppers. It then becomes important for the teams in the first half of the table to not lose to the teams who are ranked below them in the points tally, as that adds to more pressure on them, as compared to teams at eighth, ninth and tenth positions respectively. One will certainly get to know more things as this phase of the tournament progresses. The beauty of the IPL is this only: till the last day of the league stage, one doesnt know which four teams will progress to the playoffs, which signifies the level of competition IPL has, said Parthiv, an IPL Expert to JioCinema, to IANS. RR have been impressively led by Sanju Samson, who has also amassed 385 runs in ten games, including four fifties, and also earned a spot in Indias squad for the upcoming Mens T20 World Cup in the West Indies and the USA. Parthiv was amazed over how Samson has brought in consistency to his run-scoring ways in IPL 2024. Sanju Samson always had the skill to succeed, which wasnt in doubt ever. But there was a complaint about him from everyone that after scoring fifties in the first two games, and getting some more runs in the last two games, but have a lean run in between. There was no consistency in his batting, but this year, that consistent run has been way more visible. In a time where competition is very high for spots in the Indian team, it is very important that one gets that consistency in their batting to make a place for himself, which is the biggest plus in Sanju Samson's batting returns this year. Parthiv was also awestruck by Rishabh Pants resounding return to cricket in IPL 2024 post recovering from a life-threatening car crash in December 2022, especially as a wicketkeeper. Apart from amassing 398 runs in 11 games, Pant has 14 dismissals against his name as a wicketkeeper. Just like Samson, Pant has earned a spot in Indias squad for the T20 World Cup. Rishabh has been tremendous all around in terms of batting, keeping and as a leader too, like hes matured a lot in leading his team. But what has impressed me the most about him has been his wicketkeeping like returning after those knee injuries and to keep wickets in a brilliant manner is very highly appreciative, and a very huge plus point on his return to the game. IPL 2024 has seen many uncapped Indian batters like Riyan Parag, Abhishek Sharma, Shashank Singh, Ashutosh Sharma and Nitish Reddy be the fulcrums of the batting order for their respective teams. Parthiv thinks the way uncapped Indian batters have been batting aggressively and fearlessly in IPL 2024, is the way forward for how T20 cricket batting style will be. Everyone is on the right path in terms of how they are batting and the way the T20 world is now progressing in terms of batting. They all are playing at the pace which is in sync with how T20 cricket is to be played as a batting unit, like Abhishek, Shashank, Ashutosh and Nitish Reddy, whos someone backing to play his shots at number four despite wickets falling from another end. Its something which is a very important aspect of T20 batting, as the role of anchors will lessen in this format pitches are getting better to bat on and even scores of 200/250 are chaseable. All of this makes it important for batters to back their shots and the uncapped Indian batters have executed this very well.

Samajwadi Party leaders remarks on Ram temple stirs controversy amid Lok Sabha polls

LUCKNOW: Kicking up a major controversy amid the third phase of the Lok Sabha polls, senior Samajwadi Party (SP) leader and national general secretary Ram Gopal Yadav, dubbed Ayodhya's Ram temple to be useless as it was not properly constructed according to the Vastu Shastra. Yadav was interacting with media persons in Firozabad and was responding to a query over not visiting the temple so far. Roz Ram ka darshan karte hein (We pay obeisance to Lord Ram daily). He added that the temple in Ayodhya was useless as criticized the 'Vastu' of it. Vastu shastra is an ancient science that deals with the study of designing spaces in an interpersonal relationship with the forces of nature and cosmic energy. Are temples constructed like this? See the old temples... they are not constructed like this - from south to north. The map (of the temple) is not appropriate and not up to the mark as per 'Vastu', Ram Gopal Yadav claimed. It may be recalled that the Ram temple in Ayodhya was inaugurated in January this year, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi leading the consecration ceremony of Ram Lalla in sanctum sanctorum of the upcoming temple. The opposition leaders had slammed the politics around the temple and opted to skip the mega event on January 22. Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath slammed Yada's remarks Ram Gopal Yadavs remarks did not go down well with the UP CM Yogi Adityanath slamming him by calling his statement an insult to the faith of millions of Ram devotees. Yogi said that not only did they disrespect the sentiments of millions of devotees but also questioned Lord Ram's divine authority. History is witness to the fact that whoever has challenged the divine authority has faced misfortune, Yogi Adityanath said while addressing a poll rally in Unnao on Tuesday. Ram Gopal Yadav's statement is an insult to the faith of those who have dedicated their entire lives to the Ram Temple and millions of Ram devotees. Indian society cannot accept this at all, he added.

With Rahul not contesting from Amethi, BJP and Congress chalk out fresh strategy

LUCKNOW: After KL Sharma was announced as the Congress candidate from Amethi instead of Rahul Gandhi, both the BJP and Congress have gone back to the drawing board to chalk out their strategy afresh. BJP candidate Smriti Irani, who had been launching attacks on Rahul during her campaign in Amethi, has now changed gear. BJP sources in Amethi said Smriti Iranis team is now focusing more on door-to-door campaigning in a bid to reach out to people to explain the benefits of welfare schemes of the central government delivered in the constituency. The saffron brigade, with an eye on each and every voter, has deployed Panna Pramukhs allocating each a certain number of voters to focus on and convince them to vote in favour of the lotus. Moreover, the party has also deployed teams of the Mahila Morcha (womens wing) and Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (youth wing) to hold mass contact drives among women and youth of the constituency, respectively. Even the party's social media team is working round the clock. On the other hand, the Congress has appointed former Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot to oversee the partys campaign in Amethi. The party has planned at least 20 street meetings daily covering at least 500 villages till May 18. Moreover, the party is planning to organise a joint rally with Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav in the constituency in the near future. According to sources, the party is drawing up a strategy akin to what was planned for former AICC chief Sonia Gandhi when she was contesting from Amethi in 1999. Amethi ticket to little-known Congman Meanwhile, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra is camping in Rae Bareli and overseeing the Amethi campaign as well till the end of campaigning on May 18. Addressing party workers at Rae Barelis Bhuyemau guest house late on Monday evening, Priyanka said she was there for the election of her elder brother Rahul Gandhi and friend KL Sharma. She exhorted party workers to put a sturdy fight promising them that she would be there shoulder-to-shoulder with them. If anyone wants to step back due to fear, this is the time to do so because I will not allow you to retract after this. We must fight together and ensure victory in both Rae Bareli and Amethi, said Priyanka. The Congress general secretary said Motilal Nehru, Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi were arrested by the British in an agitation of farmers in Rae Bareli. This is the election of Rahul Bhaiya. This is very personal for us. This place (Rae Bareli) will send a message to the entire country. This is the fortress that the BJP failed to breach in the 2019 polls and this is the fortress you defended, she said. This is the land, which has the blood of my family mixed and we are fighting for it. Your ancestors have laid their lives for this land...its holy for us, she said to her party cadre. She accused the BJP government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi of not formulating policies in favour of the poor, and instead neglecting them. The Modi government is weakening democratic institutions. Those who fought for the country never thought they would be called anti-national by a government, said the Congress leader.

Mumbai Indians, currently ninth in the IPL 2024 standings with a net run rate of -0.212, secured a crucial victory against Sunrisers Hyderabad in an IPL match. However, their playoff hopes depend on winning their remaining fixtures against Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants. Their negative NRR requires convincing performances to boost their run rate.

MI batting coach Pollard: Bumrah not expected to rest anytime soon

MI batting coach Pollard: Bumrah not expected to rest anytime soon Mumbai Indians have no plans to rest ace India pacer Jasprit Bumrah ahead of the T20 World Cup even though they are out of contention for the IPL playoffs, said batting coach Kieron Pollard. MI defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by seven wickets here on Monday after Suryakumar Yadav (102 not out) struck his second IPL century to help his team chase down a target of 174 with 16 balls to spare. The win helped MI end their four-match losing streak and record only their fourth win in 12 matches. ''I certainly haven't had any discussions about that,'' Pollard told media after the game when asked if there are any plans to rest Bumrah from MI's remaining two matches keeping in mind the upcoming T20 World Cup. ''I don't think that's my role and function at this point in time. But let's see what happens. We are all here to play an entire IPL. Sometimes when we think too far ahead of different things, thinking about World Cups, all these things could affect performances even from before the team was selected. ''For us and in our camp, the most important thing is finishing off the IPL and let's see what happens after that. When he leaves the IPL and he goes into the Indian team, I think that's where that concession will take place.'' MI's last IPL game is against Lucknow Super Giants at home on May 17. The T20 World Cup, to be co-hosted by USA and the West Indies, will begin on June 1. Pollard said as a batting coach the most difficult aspect of coaching an all-round batter like Suryakumar is to curb his attacking instinct. ''He's one, who, by nature, instinctively, is very aggressive. He wants to take the bowler's on more often than not. At times it's just a matter of understanding the situation and respecting the new ball when it's moving around, Pollard said. ''If the conditions are not suitable for a certain amount of shot making, having that discipline in order to be there for a period of time and they'll get into your work. ''I think that would be the hardest thing to try to curb the attacking instinct. But it's not something you want to curb too much and get them in a defensive frame of mind because of the direction the sport is heading now in terms of the amount of runs being scored.'' SRH's assistant coach Helmot doffs his hat to Suryakumar =================================== SRH's assistant coach Simon Helmot said Suryakumar played an exceptional innings to take the game away from his side and the world No 1 T20I batter will have a lot of influence in the T20 World Cup. ''On some days you just have to take your hat off and say well played and well played to him. He's an exceptional cricketer and he's always going to demand a spot in the Indian team and I'm sure he'll have an influence in the World Cup,'' he said. ''It's very difficult (to bowl at Suryakumar) and you guys have seen him close up for many years as I have. He's a very difficult batsman to match up with when he's in that sort of frame of mind, that sort of mood.'' Helmot said the conditions assisted swing bowling with the new ball in both the innings which forced the batters to adjust their game. ''Travis (Head) has been one of our best players this season at the top of the order. But even he found it difficult at times to time the ball out in the middle on this particular track and that will happen at different times during the season,'' he said. Helmot said not losing their fourth spot in the IPL points table was the biggest positive for SRH in a resounding defeat. ''The positives are that we're still fourth in the ladder. It's a really tight competition; one of the tightest competitions we've had in IPL for years that I can remember, he said. ''For us, we've got our very first fly tomorrow (Tuesday) and then play the next day against Lucknow (on Wednesday). For us, it's (about) very quickly get through over this game,'' he added.

INTERVIEW | Opposition misguiding people by promising religion-based quota

Having a hectic campaign schedule as a star campaigner of the BJP, Defence Minister and party candidate from Lucknow Lok Sabha seat Rajnath Singh has so far addressed over 50 public meetings across over a dozen states. Taking time out from his busy schedule, Singh gives an insight into BJPs strategy in the elections while talking to Namita Bajpai . The opposition narrative is that BJP would change the Constitution consideringpartys target of Rs 400 paar. Your take. Look Congress has no credible issues. They want to contest the elections over non-issues. While we are running our campaign based on the decade-long performance of our government, they do not have anything to show. They are just spreading lies. We have set our target after evaluating our capabilities and the confidence people have in us. They are misguiding people by promising religion-based reservation. When our Constitution does not have any such provision, then why to mislead people? How the anger and discontent in Kashtriya Samaj would impact BJPs prospects in the elections? There is no anger or discontent among Kashtriyas. Sometimes it is claimed that Brahmins are angry, sometimes Kashtriyas, especially during the elections. Actually, no community is unhappy. What is your assessment about the number of seats BJP will get in UP? We are going to get more seats than previous LS elections. This time, we have already scored more in the first two phases than those of 2019. Opposition is accusing you of turning the discourse communal as you are lagging in the first two phases? There is no question of it. We are working for all the sections equally without any discrimination on religious lines. Welfare schemes focus on everyone equally. They should substantiate their accusation with even one such instance. We are focusing on holistic development. We are ensuring that no section of the society remains devoid of development. If all sections do not progress equally, we will not be able to realise our dream of Viksit Bharat. Do you think PDA (Pichhda, Dalit, Alpsankhyak)formula given by SP chief Akhilesh Yadav is affecting BJPs caste bouquet? We dont indulge in caste-driven politics. What would you say about the issues of unemployment, inflation, price rise ringing on the ground? There is an attraction for PM Modi at the ground. Given his achievements and his governance of the last 10 years, I can say that people have a very positive feeling towards him. People are happy with the rising stature of the country at international level. Moreover, the benefits of social welfare schemes have reached the lowest level of society. There is no corruption or leakage in the deliverance of those benefits. How do you evaluate party prospects in southern states, especially Tamil Nadu and Kerala? We are going to increase our tally certainly. I, myself, have held half a dozen rallies each in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Even political analysts believe that the BJP would get seats in both the states. In Andhra Pradesh, we are doing very good. In Telangana, our tally is likely to go beyond four which we had won in previous election. Dont you feel that an alliance with AIADMK would have been more fruitful for BJP in Tamil Nadu? The present scenario is equally good. With our current allies, we are going to register our presence in the state emphatically this time. An impact of repeating sitting MPs facing anti-incumbency was visible on the ground, especially in western UP? In BJP, ticket are given after taking each factor into account. Even then, if there was a certain amount of anti-incumbency against any candidate, people are focused on voting for the development having taken place during the last 10 years. India is growing exponentially, its stature has gone up several notches in the world. Everything else becomes diminutive, meaningless. Will the next national election in 2029 be held on the lines of One Nation One Election proposal? We are all for it. However, modalities would be worked out after thorough confabulations. It is the need of the hour and a consensus on the issue is also required. How will you wash off the allegation of being a washing machine for the tainted leaders of other parties? BJP has no machine. Those who are coming were good when in their original party and after joining BJP they suddenly become tainted. There is a narrative over the misuse of ED and CBI to intimidate opposition leaders. Two CMs of opposition-ruled states are in jail? Agencies will work as per their mandate. If anyone feels of being victimised, he/she should approach court. If they are wrongly implicated by any agency, they will get relief from court. Why do they indict BJP? The courts in many cases have given order against the government as well. Congress leader and former Punjab CM Charanjeet Singh Channi has called the terror attack on IAF convoy in Poonch an election stunt and orchestrated by BJP? Your take. These are baseless allegations. Our politicians should refrain from giving hollow statements over border security and supreme sacrifice by our jawans and officers. What do they want to prove? You have said that we would not have to take PoK back, it would come on its own? How will that happen? I have been saying this for the past two and a half years. The way development is taking place in Jammu and Kashmir and India is treading ahead on path of development, people on the other side would never like to struggle to make both ends meet. People across the border are itnessing growth in J&K. A few months back, they had even shouted slogans in favour of India. It will happen on its own. India-China border dispute is also an issue being raised by opposition? Are talks with China on? Talks are progressing well. Both sides hope to find a solution to issues and border standoff in eastern Ladakh. Opposition, especially in UP, is making Agniveer scheme an issue? Do you plan to fine-tune it in future? Let the outcome of the scheme be there. After working for four years in Army, an 18-19-year-old will have at least `11 lakh in his hand. They will get quota in various services. However, let me say, we are open to makeimprovement. You are an MP from Lucknow. What are your prospects? I think people of Lucknow would be better placed to say anything about my prospects.

Suryakumar Yadav's unbeaten 102 leads Mumbai Indians to a crushing win over Sunrisers Hyderabad

Mumbai : Suryakumar Yadav hit an unbeaten 102 to lead Mumbai Indians to a crushing seven-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad on Monday as teams jostle for a play-off berth in the IPL. Chasing 174 for victory, Mumbai slipped to 31-3 before Suryakumar put on an unbeaten stand of 143 with Tilak Varma to achieve the target with 16 balls to spare at their home Wankhede Stadium. Suryakumar hit the winning six, which also raised his second IPL ton in 51 balls and comes as a welcome sign for India ahead of the T20 World Cup in June in the West Indies and the United States. However the win for five-time winners Mumbai, placed ninth in the 10-team table, could be late in a tournament fast moving toward its business end. Hyderabad, led by Pat Cummins, stay fourth in the table but their fifth loss and a big one could hurt their play-off chances. Hyderabad need to win two of their remaining three matches to make the play-offs as they remain locked at 12 points with third-placed Chennai Super Kings and Lucknow Super Giants at fifth. The top four teams will make the play-offs with the final on May 26 in Chennai. Former champions Hyderabad posted 173-8 courtesy of Travis Heads 48 and an unbeaten 17-ball 35 by lower-order batter Cummins after being invited to bat first. The left-handed Head gave the team a brisk start with his 30-ball knock before his departure in the 11th over and Hyderabad lost their way with regular wickets. Skipper Hardik Pandya spinner Piyush Chawla took three wickets each to rattle the opposition middle and lower-order as Hyderabad slipped to 136-8 in 17 overs. But number nine Cummins had other ideas as the Australian Test and ODI captain hit back in the final three overs and put on an unbeaten stand of 37 off 19 balls with Sanvir Singh. The batting effort inspired the team and fast bowlers came roaring to reduce Mumbai to 31-3 including the key wicket of Rohit Sharma, out caught behind for four off Cummins. Suryakumar soon took charge with his attacking batting as he raised his 50 in 30 balls and hammered the opposition bowling with 12 fours and six sixes. The left-handed Varma made 37 and enjoyed Suryakumars blitz from the other end.
