Top highlights of last night’s SRH vs GT match

-SunRisers Hyderabad have entered playoffs for the first time after 2016. They won the tournament that year.

-The toss didn’t happen at scheduled time of 7 pm due to rain and wet outfield. The rain intensified before settling into a steady shower as the covers and outfield stayed covered.

The cut-off time for a five-over game was 10:56 PM, which meant the drizzle needed to stop for mop-up to begin by around 10:15pm but with rain showing no signs of abating, the official decided to abandon the match.

-GT are in eighth place with 10 points in 14 games and are the third team to get eliminated after the Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings. However, they performed well in their last two seasons and emerged champions in 2022 and finalists in 2023.
