What an exciting match on a Sunday night. Electing to bowl, LSG produced a fine bowling effort before Shimron Hetmyer struck a fluent fifty to help RR post 165 for six. Reeling at 67/4 at one stage, Hetmyer stitched a 68-run stand with Ravi Ashwin before the latter was retired out in the 18th over. Ashwin’s act was the first in IPL history. Hetmyer remained unbeaten on 59 off 36 balls. Krishnappa Gowtham (2/30) and Jason Holder (2/50) shared four wickets between them for LSG. Chasing the total, LSG were never in the chase as they lost two wickets in the first over itself. Quinton de Kock tried to resurrect the LSG innings before Marcus Stoinis played a blinder to take the game into the final over. Young Kuldeep Sen kept his nerve to bowl three dot balls to Stoinis before the Australian took 10 off the final two balls but it was too late by then. LSG finished at 162/8.
