LSG vs SRH, IPL 2023: 3 records that were broken during Lucknow Super Giants vs Sunrisers Hyderabad match

The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) took on the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) last night in IPL 2023. Playing at the Bharat Ratna Shree Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Stadium in Lucknow, the home side cruised to a five-wicket win against the Orange Army, riding on Krunal Pandya's all-round brilliance.

Sunrisers Hyderabad's new captain Aiden Markram won his first toss in the IPL and decided to bat first.

Rahul Tripathi top-scored with a 41-ball 34 as SRH finished with 121/8 in 20 overs.

In reply, Lucknow Super Giants got off to a decent start, with Kyle Mayers and KL Rahul adding 35 runs for the first wicket in 4.3 overs. Mayers lost his wicket, but Rahul scored a thirty. Even Krunal Pandya chipped in with a thirty as LSG completed the win in 16 overs.

The Lucknow fans would be delighted with their team's performance in yesterday's IPL 2023 match. On that note, here's a list of the three records that were broken during the Lucknow Super Giants vs Sunrisers Hyderabad match last night.
