We are down to the business end of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. The 58th match will see the Sunrisers Hyderabad take on the Lucknow Super Giants at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.

SRH are languishing in the bottom half of the points table. They grabbed their fourth win of the competition when they beat the Rajasthan Royals in their last game. They will have to keep winning to keep their IPL playoffs hopes alive.

The Royals posted a mammoth 214 on the board. Chasing it, the top-order batters of SRH contributed and took the game to the last over. Abdul Samad hit a six on the final delivery to take his side home. The Sunrisers would have gained confidence after that win and will hope that they carry forward the winning momentum.

LSG, meanwhile, are placed in the middle of the points table with 11 points under their belt. They are coming off a big loss against the Gujarat Titans in their last game. They were completely outplayed and need to bring out their A-game on Saturday (May 13) to get back to winning ways and qualify for IPL playoffs.

The bowlers went on a journey as the Titans finished their innings on 227/2. Kyle Mayers (48) and Quinton de Kock (70) gave them a solid start in the chase but a lack of contributions from the other batters resulted in them losing the game by 56 runs. The Super Giants have three games remaining and will have to start winning to stay alive in the IPL playoffs race.
