Sunrisers Hyderabad (151/9) beat Mumbai Indians (147/8) by 1 wicket

Sunrisers Hyderabad enjoyed an exciting win over Mumbai Indians that culminated in a last-ball thriller as Billy Stanlake hit the winning runs needed to seal victory.

The scores were level going into the final ball, and Stanlake showed few nerves as he lofted a strike over mid-wicket for four to clinch a dramatic win.

Sports statistician Mohandas Menon showed how he was an unlikely hero:

Sunrisers Hyderabad may wonder how the outcome was so close after they put in another superb bowling display. 

Rashid Khan in particular enjoyed a fine game, as shown by ESPNcricinfo:

Sandeep Sharma and Siddarth Jaul both took two wickets each, leaving Sunrisers Hyderabad to chase down 148.

It looked a comfortable target early on as Wriddhiman Saha and Dhawan opened up and coasted quickly to 62 until they came up against Markande.

The 20-year-old accounted for Saha with a quick googly before Dhawan was caught at long leg boundary. He then took Manish Pandey and Shakib Al Hasan in a superb showing, highlighted by Cricbuzz:

From a comfortable start, Sunrisers Hyderabad were confronted with a nervy finish, needing 11 off their final over. However, Deepak Hooda put them in sight before Stanlake sealed the victory.

It will be a tough defeat to take for Mumbai Indians, who also lost their opener against Chennai Super Kings by one wicket. However, they will be able to take huge consolation from the performance of Markande who looks to have an exciting future ahead of him.
