In this match, Sunrisers Hyderabad team batting first got all out for 113 runs in 18.3 overs. This is the lowest score in IPL history. Hyderabad batsmen flopped badly in this match.
The bats of big players like Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Heinrich Klaasen remained silent in this match. Chasing the target, Kolkata won the match thanks to the half-century partnership of Venkatesh Iyer and Gurbaz Ahmed.
Kolkata performed brilliantly with both bat and ball in the final played at Chennai’s Chepauk Stadium on Sunday and did not allow the Pat Cummins-led team to dominate at any time. Kolkata had earlier won its last title in the 2014 season by defeating Punjab Kings and now after 10 years the team has again captured the trophy.
