That's all we have from Hyderabad today, thanks for turning in, people. We'll wrap up, head home and bring you all the action for another double header later on Monday. Until then, it's goodbye and good luck from Nikhil and Vishal. Ciao!
Captain Warner is the Man of the Match: It was outstanding, we generally look to bat first and set the tone with a positive intent from ball one. We managed to maintain the run rate of 10 an over, which was amazing. We (him and Dhawan) keep working around the strike and we've been gelling together over all. Credit to out bowlers: to Siraj, the way he's been learning and performing; Bhuvi is amazing.
12.17am A clinical performance from Sunrisers, led by the captain Warner's blazing century. It wasn't all over at the innings break though, KKR have the firepower to chase 210. Warner then used his bowlers smartly, Bhuvneshwar bowled with guile, the spinners took the pace off the ball, Kaul dismissed Gambhir with a knuckle ball and Siraj bowled a few to Uthappa outside off when he was clubbing sixes over midwicket. KKR still lead the table with their run rate but Sunrisers are the only team unbeaten at home. This is their fifth win in five home games. No away win yet.
Gambhir: We need to improve in our feeling, we've been very sloppy throughout the tournament. We really need to pull up our socks. It all depends on concentration, how much you can focus and how much every run means to you, it's not like we don't know how to field. We dropped Warner today and that's what cost us. Bowler's couldn't have done much, but credit goes to him for the shots he played.
Harsh: "I still feel KKR hasnt got their overseas combination right ... They need to replace Woakes with Shakib and Grandhomme with Powell before the knockouts. These two arent really adding anything to the team especially Grandhomme and two of the spots are being wasted regularly." Or maybe they aren't using Grandhomme properly?

Kaul to de Grandhomme, OUT, one more bowler gets a wicket on the last ball of his spell. Full on off, Grandhomme lofted pretty high and straight down the ground and who takes the catch? It's Rashid Khan again

Kaul to de Grandhomme, no run, short and quick at 136kph, almost a bouncer as Grandhomme pulls and misses
pranvesh: "SRH and its pace bowling..always a joy to watch ...last year fizz nehra ji and sran ..and this year siraj & kaul alongside bhuvi.."

Kaul to Woakes, FOUR, slower ball at 116kph, well outside off and Woakes nudges it late to beat short third man for a four
