LSG vs SRH Match Scorecard

Sunrisers Hyderabad batted first after LSG captain chose to bowl. The home side struggled badly during the opening phase, losing three wickets for just 11 runs and reaching only 22/3 at the end of the powerplay.

Heinrich Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy then rebuilt the innings. Their partnership provided the stability SRH needed after the early collapse. Klaasen eventually scored 62 from 41 balls, while Nitish Kumar Reddy added a powerful 56 from 33 deliveries.

Despite that recovery, SRH could only reach 156/9 from their 20 overs. LSG’s chase started much more positively. Markram and Pant helped the visitors remain in control, and Pant stayed unbeaten until the winning runs were scored with one ball remaining.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Batting Scorecard

SRH’s innings was almost a story of two completely different phases. The opening overs were disastrous, but Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy gave the innings life in the middle overs.

Abhishek Sharma was dismissed for a duck, Travis Head made only 7, and Ishan Kishan scored just 1. With three wickets down for 11, SRH appeared to be heading toward a very low total.

Klaasen then played the key stabilising role. His 62 from 41 balls included five fours and two sixes. Nitish Kumar Reddy was even more aggressive, scoring 56 from 33 deliveries with three fours and five sixes.

The official scorecard records 156/9, with five extras coming from three wides, one bye and one leg bye.

SRH Batting Highlights

Heinrich Klaasen was SRH’s top scorer with 62 runs. His innings was particularly important because SRH were in serious trouble at 11/3 early in the innings.

Nitish Kumar Reddy complemented Klaasen brilliantly. His 56 off 33 balls came at a strike rate of 169.70 and included five sixes. The pair turned an early collapse into a competitive total.

The two batters also reached their respective half-centuries during the recovery phase. SRH reached 100 in 14.3 overs and 150 in 19.2 overs.

The biggest weakness in the SRH innings was the start. The team scored only 22 runs in the powerplay while losing three wickets.

Lucknow Super Giants Batting Scorecard

LSG’s chase was led by captain Rishabh Pant. After Mitchell Marsh was dismissed for 14, Pant stayed at the crease and played the anchor role required in a relatively tricky chase.

Aiden Markram provided the initial acceleration, scoring 45 from 27 balls with six fours and two sixes. His strike rate of 166.67 ensured that LSG did not fall behind the required rate.

Pant then controlled the middle and latter stages of the innings. His unbeaten 68 from 50 balls contained nine fours, and although he did not hit a six, he rotated the strike effectively and found the boundary regularly.

Batter	Runs	Balls	4s	6s	Strike Rate
Aiden Markram	45	27	6	2	166.67

Extras	2
Total	160/5	19.5 overs

LSG finished on 160/5 with two extras. Pant’s unbeaten 68 was the highest individual score of the chase.

LSG Batting Highlights

The partnership between Aiden Markram and the top order gave LSG the foundation required for the chase.

Markram’s 45 off 27 was particularly valuable because it came at a strike rate above 166. His six boundaries and two sixes allowed LSG to keep pace despite losing Mitchell Marsh.

Pant then shifted into a more controlled role. His 68* off 50 was not an ultra-aggressive innings, but it was exactly what LSG needed. He stayed until the end, avoided unnecessary risks and ensured that the required target was reached.

Abdul Samad also contributed 16 from 12 balls, helping LSG move through the final overs.

LSG vs SRH Bowling Scorecard

LSG’s bowling performance was the foundation of their victory.

Mohammad Shami produced the standout spell of the match. He finished with 2/9 from four overs, an economy rate of only 2.25. His spell included the wickets of Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head during SRH’s difficult opening period.

Prince Yadav also claimed two wickets, while Avesh Khan took two important wickets late in the innings.

LSG Bowling Figures

Bowler	Overs	Runs	Wickets	Economy
Mohammad Shami	4	9	2	2.25
Digvesh Singh Rathi	4	46	1	11.50
Prince Yadav	4	34	2	8.50
M. Siddharth	4	29	1	7.25
Avesh Khan	4	36	2	9.00

Shami’s 2/9 was comfortably the most economical spell among the regular LSG bowlers. The other bowlers conceded more freely, but the damage had already been limited by Shami’s opening burst.

SRH Bowling Figures

SRH’s bowling attack was unable to create enough pressure during the chase. Harsh Dubey was the pick of the bowlers with two wickets for 18 runs from four overs.

Eshan Malinga took one wicket, while Shivang Kumar also picked up one. Jaydev Unadkat was the most expensive bowler, conceding 50 runs in 3.5 overs.

Bowler	Overs	Runs	Wickets	Economy
Harsh Dubey	4	18	2	4.50
Nitish Kumar Reddy	1	14	0	14.00
Jaydev Unadkat	3.5	50	0	13.04
Eshan Malinga	4	30	1	7.50
Harshal Patel	3	16	0	5.33
Shivang Kumar	4	30	1	7.50

The biggest difference between the two bowling attacks was early wicket-taking. LSG reduced SRH to 11/3, whereas SRH allowed LSG to establish a solid platform during the powerplay.

LSG vs SRH Fall of Wickets

The fall of wickets shows how differently the two innings developed.

SRH Fall of Wickets

Wicket	Score	Over	Batter
1st	1	0.6	Abhishek Sharma
2nd	8	2.1	Travis Head
3rd	11	3.3	Ishan Kishan
4th	26	7.1	Liam Livingstone
5th	142	17.4	Nitish Kumar Reddy
6th	144	18.1	Heinrich Klaasen
7th	144	18.2	Harsh Dubey
8th	151	19.3	Shivang Kumar
9th	156	19.6	Harshal Patel

SRH lost three wickets inside the first four overs and then suffered another setback when Livingstone departed at 26. Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy’s partnership was therefore crucial to getting the score beyond 150.

LSG Fall of Wickets

Wicket	Score	Over	Batter
1st	37	4.4	Mitchell Marsh
2nd	77	9.2	Aiden Markram
3rd	102	12.1	Ayush Badoni
4th	105	13.1	Nicholas Pooran
5th	139	17.4	Abdul Samad

LSG’s wickets were spread throughout the chase, but the important difference was that Pant remained at the crease. His unbeaten innings gave LSG the stability required to finish the chase.

LSG vs SRH Match Result

Lucknow Super Giants won the match by five wickets.

SRH were restricted to 156/9 in their 20 overs after a poor start. LSG then chased the target, reaching 160/5 in 19.5 overs.

4	Harsh Dubey	SRH	2	4.50
5	M. Siddharth	LSG	1	7.25

Although several bowlers took two wickets, Shami’s spell stood apart because of his extraordinary economy rate.

LSG vs SRH Player Stats

The match produced several notable individual numbers.

Statistic	Player	Performance
Highest Score	Rishabh Pant	68*
Most Runs for SRH	Heinrich Klaasen	62
Most Sixes	Nitish Kumar Reddy	5
Most Fours	Rishabh Pant	9
Best Strike Rate among major scorers	Nitish Kumar Reddy	169.70
Best Bowling	Mohammad Shami	2/9

Pant’s nine fours were the most by an LSG batter, while Nitish Kumar Reddy’s five sixes were the highest individual six tally in the match.

LSG vs SRH Powerplay Score

The powerplay was one of the biggest differences between the two innings.

SRH managed only 22 runs during the first six overs and lost three wickets. LSG, in contrast, scored 53 runs for the loss of one wicket in their first six overs.

Team	Powerplay Score	Wickets Lost	Run Rate
SRH	22/3	3	3.67
LSG	53/1	1	8.83

That 31-run difference after six overs effectively put LSG in control of the chase.

LSG vs SRH Partnership Stats

Partnerships were critical in both innings, but for different reasons.

For SRH, Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy repaired an innings that had collapsed to 26/4. They eventually produced a 100-run partnership from 56 balls, taking SRH from serious trouble to a defendable position.

For LSG, Markram provided early momentum before Pant took responsibility for the chase.

Partnership	Team	Runs/Contribution
Heinrich Klaasen – Nitish Kumar Reddy	SRH	100-run partnership
Aiden Markram – LSG top order	LSG	Major early contribution
Rishabh Pant – LSG middle order	LSG	Controlled chase

The Klaasen-Reddy stand was arguably SRH’s most important phase with the bat. Without it, SRH could have finished well below 150.

LSG vs SRH Match Highlights

Powerplay Highlights

The opening six overs belonged completely to Lucknow Super Giants.

Mohammad Shami removed Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head, while Ishan Kishan was dismissed soon afterward. SRH’s top order could not settle, and the team ended the powerplay at only 22/3.

LSG’s own powerplay was considerably stronger. Markram and Pant’s team reached 53/1, giving them a strong platform for the chase.

Middle-Over Highlights

SRH’s middle overs were dominated by Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy.

Klaasen brought up his fifty from 33 balls, while Nitish Kumar Reddy reached his half-century from only 30 deliveries. Their partnership transformed the innings.

For LSG, Markram’s 45 from 27 kept the required run rate manageable before Pant took over.

Death-Over Highlights

SRH’s death overs produced some late runs, but the team lost wickets regularly and finished on 156/9.

LSG’s chase became tense when wickets fell in the middle overs. However, Pant remained unbeaten and guided the team to victory with a boundary-assisted finish, reaching 160/5 with one ball left.

Key Turning Points in LSG vs SRH

Mohammad Shami’s opening spell

Shami’s two wickets for nine runs from four overs gave LSG the perfect start. His early dismissal of Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head prevented SRH from building the explosive opening partnership they often rely upon.

SRH losing three wickets for 11 runs

The collapse put SRH under enormous pressure. Losing Abhishek, Head and Ishan Kishan so early meant the middle order had to rebuild almost from scratch.

Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy’s partnership

The 100-run partnership was the reason SRH reached 156. Their aggressive batting restored momentum and gave the home team something to defend.

LSG’s 53/1 powerplay

LSG effectively reversed the powerplay battle. Their 53/1 compared with SRH’s 22/3 gave them a huge advantage in the chase.

Rishabh Pant staying unbeaten

Pant’s 68* was the final piece of the puzzle. His ability to remain at the crease meant LSG always had a batter capable of taking the chase to the finish line.

LSG vs SRH Head-to-Head Record

The LSG vs SRH rivalry began in IPL 2022 and has now produced seven matches. Lucknow Super Giants lead the head-to-head record 5-2.

Category	LSG	SRH

LSG vs SRH Previous Match Scorecards

The fixture has been played seven times across six IPL seasons from 2022 through 2026.

LSG vs SRH Match Analysis

The match can largely be explained through the first six overs of each innings.

SRH had the more explosive batting reputation on paper, but their top order was unable to convert that potential into runs. Abhishek Sharma was out for a duck, Travis Head made seven and Ishan Kishan managed only one. Three wickets inside the powerplay put SRH on the back foot immediately.

Shami was central to that collapse. His 4-0-9-2 figures were outstanding in a T20 match, particularly against a side known for aggressive powerplay batting.

The middle order then had to rebuild. Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy responded brilliantly, combining power with patience. Their 100-run stand rescued SRH from an embarrassing total and took them into competitive territory.

However, 156 was still below what SRH might have expected after batting on a surface described as flat and high-scoring.

LSG’s response was much better structured. Markram attacked from the beginning, while Pant provided stability. Although LSG lost wickets at regular intervals, they never suffered a prolonged collapse.

Pant’s innings was particularly important because he did not need to chase the game at an extreme strike rate. He scored 68 from 50 balls, hitting nine fours and keeping the innings moving.

The SRH bowlers also struggled to maintain pressure. Harsh Dubey was excellent with 2/18, but Jaydev Unadkat conceded 50 runs in 3.5 overs. That expensive spell made LSG’s target considerably easier to reach.

Why Did LSG Win the Match?

There were several reasons behind Lucknow Super Giants’ five-wicket victory.

Early wickets

The most important factor was LSG’s start with the ball. SRH were reduced to 11/3, which immediately changed the shape of the innings.

Mohammad Shami’s spell

Shami conceded only nine runs in four overs while taking two wickets. His control meant SRH could not make the explosive start they needed.

Stronger powerplay batting

LSG scored 53/1 in the first six overs compared with SRH’s 22/3. That 31-run advantage created a significant cushion.

Markram’s aggressive start

Aiden Markram scored 45 from 27 balls at a strike rate of 166.67. His innings kept LSG ahead of the required rate.

Pant’s unbeaten innings

Rishabh Pant’s 68* ensured that LSG had a batter at the crease when the target came within reach. His ability to rotate the strike and find boundaries was crucial.

SRH’s expensive bowling

While Harsh Dubey bowled an excellent spell, the overall attack could not sustain enough pressure. Unadkat’s 50-run spell was particularly costly.

The boundary numbers also illustrate an interesting contrast. SRH relied heavily on six-hitting, particularly through Nitish Kumar Reddy, while LSG’s chase was built more around fours and strike rotation.

What the LSG vs SRH Scorecard Tells Us

A scorecard can sometimes hide the story of a T20 match, but this fixture’s numbers explain the result quite clearly.

SRH scored 156 despite two substantial individual contributions. Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy together scored 118 runs, meaning the remaining SRH batters contributed comparatively little.

LSG, meanwhile, had contributions from several players. Markram scored 45, Pant made 68*, and Abdul Samad added 16. The runs were distributed more effectively.

The biggest statistical difference was therefore not necessarily the final score but the distribution of contributions.

SRH had a disastrous top order and depended heavily on two middle-order batters.

LSG had a much stronger start and enough stability through Pant to complete the chase.

Conclusion

The latest Lucknow Super Giants vs Sunrisers Hyderabad match scorecard tells the story of a match that was largely shaped by the contrasting powerplays. SRH lost three wickets for only 22 runs in the first six overs, while LSG raced to 53/1 during the same period.

Mohammad Shami’s 2/9 was the defining bowling performance, while Rishabh Pant’s unbeaten 68 provided the stability LSG needed during the chase. SRH fought back through Heinrich Klaasen’s 62 and Nitish Kumar Reddy’s 56, but their early collapse left them with a total of only 156/9.

LSG eventually reached 160/5 in 19.5 overs to win by five wickets. The result also strengthened Lucknow’s overall advantage in the rivalry, with LSG now leading SRH 5-2 across seven IPL meetings.

For anyone looking for the LSG vs SRH full scorecard, the match provides plenty of useful numbers: Pant’s 68*, Klaasen’s 62, Nitish Kumar Reddy’s five sixes, Shami’s 2/9, SRH’s 22/3 powerplay and LSG’s 53/1 powerplay. Together, those figures explain how Lucknow Super Giants secured another victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad.
