IPL 2022 Points Table, Orange Cap and Purple Cap: Deepak Hooda, Avesh Khan move into top 3 - Updated after Match 12 

The twelfth match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 took place between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on Monday. The new franchise bagged their second win in a row by a 12-run margin at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai.

The KL Rahul-led side were initially in a spot of bother after yet another poor showing in the powerplay with the bat. The skipper led from the front and registered his 50th fifty in the shortest format of the game while Deepak Hooda controlled the other end. Despite a minor slump in the death overs, LSG put up 169 in their 20 overs.

Meanwhile, SRH's new opening combination failed to deliver yet again. Tripathi led the charge in the middle overs but the IPL team's chase was dented by a tight spell by Krunal Pandya, who also took two crucial wickets.

The Orange Army seemed to be cruising at one stage with Nicholas Pooran leading the charge. However, stellar death bowling from LSG changed the course of the match.

LSG enter the top half of the table with a win over SRH.

With their second win in succession, LSG rose to the fifth spot in the IPL point table. The 12-run margin also improved their net run rate slightly to 0.193.

SRH remain rooted to the bottom spot in the points table. However, given the rather slender margin of defeat when compared to their drubbing at the hands of RR, their net run rate has significantly improved to -1.825. Despite this improvement, they still hold the poorest net run rate out of all franchises.
