Prerak Mankad took the opportunity with both hands to shine in a match that helped Lucknow Super Giants enter the Top 4 in the Indian Premier League standings. Mankad struck a well-composed 64 off 45 deliveries to steal the match from under Sunrisers Hyderabad's grasps. Opting to bat first, SRH got off to a shaky start, but managed to build small partnerships to keep the scoreboard ticking. Heinrich Klaasen (47 off 29 balls) and Abdul Samad (37* off 25 balls) built a 58-run partnership at the latter stages of the innings to put SRH to a respectable 182-6. After the departure of Kyle Mayers (2) and Quinton de Kock (29 off 19 balls), Mankad and Marcus Stoinis (40 from 25 balls) took it upon themselves to bring LSG as close to the total as possible, in the process, stitching a partnership of 69 runs. Nicholas Pooran was in a destructive mood, hitting three sixes off the first 3 balls that he faced. He went on to compile a match-winning 13-ball 44, as the Lucknow franchise won with 4 balls remaining.
