It was once again a Tewatia show as Royals found their way home in the final over. This time, Tewatia had support from another young prodigy Parag. The duo added 85 runs for the 6th wicket to help Royals win.
Earlier, Sunrisers had Warner and Pandey coming good on the day. With Warner scoring 48 and Pandey, a good 54. Cameos from Williamson and Garg took the team to 158.
Sunrisers began well with the ball and reduced the Royals to 78 for 5. Lesser did they know that Parag and Tewatia would pull off something like this. Normally, the players would prefer to play out Rashid Khan but in this case, he was also on the receiving end.
Natarajan who did well throughout the tournament was taken for runs too. When 2 needed from 2 deliveries, Parag smashed a six and did a small winning dance as well.
