IPL-2016: Sunrisers Hyderabad beat Rising Pune Supergiants by 4 runs

In IPL Cricket, Sunrisers Hyderabad defeated MS Dhoni-led Rising Pune Supergiants by 4 runs last night to go at the top of the points table. Opting to bat at Visakhapatnam, Hyderabad were, first, restricted to 137 for 8 after Aussie spinner Adam Zampa bagged 6 wickets and gave away just 19 runs from his 4 overs – the first 5-wicket haul of this IPL season. However, they shone with the ball as Pune could only make 133 for 8. None of the batsmen clicked other than George Bailey and Dhoni. Ashish Nehra bagged 3 wickets. Zampa was named man of the match. With the defeat, Pune has dropped to the 7th spot in the 8-team points table. They have won just 3 of the 11 games. Hyderabad is at the top with 7 wins from 10 matches. Today, Royal Challengers Bangalore will face holders Mumbai Indians in Bengaluru at 8 PM.
