Rahul Tripathi Player of the Match: "I really, loved it. It was fun with KKR and now with SRH. I knew he would bang it in short and I was ready to back myself. I think Varun bowls well. I saw it was up, just went through with the shot and put him under pressure. I cannot say about familiarity. I was happy with KKR and now with SRH, it's going great. I was down for a week with bad health. But the team supported me well. I would like to enjoy and enjoy every day as it comes. I am happy that I could contribute to the win. Happy with the team winning as well. "
Rahul Tripathi wins the Player of the Match Award for his 71 off 37 balls. 
Kane Williamson Winning SRH Captain: "It was a step=up today. We took wickets with the ball that kept Kolkata to 175. It was a competitive total on that pitch. But dew came in. Death bowling was good. The way Rahul and Aiden played the chase was amazing. Marco has been great with the ball and he is a key figure in our line-up. With Umran Malik, it's about doing his stuff. He has had unlucky days, but it was a good day for him. Good to see three wins in a row. A good improvement is seen and there are areas to improve going ahead to another venue. All teams are strong here."

Aiden Markram (Sunrisers Hyderabad): Feels good to win. It's nice to bat with a guy like Tripathi who gets going and he gives you a bit of time to settle. It was nice to lay out a good platform. (On remaining unbeaten for the second time with Nicholas Pooran) We laugh about it - we've struggled a bit in the past so it's nice to get across the line. It's nice to do it more often. It's almost just buying into trying to suit the role the team needs. I think that takes a lot of pressure off you as an individual and sometimes things just fall into place. I'm enjoying it with the Sunrisers, it's been a great few weeks and hopefully we keep the momentum going. (Any clear instructions to him from the management?) It is to play the situation out there. When I play with Rahul who's naturally very aggressive - the longer we spend out there he's going to do majority of the scoring but it's the partnership that matters. From there hopefully I can get in and keep playing the situation through until the end. It's not a finished product at all but I'm happy to get over the line. It (net run rate) wasn't really my thought. In the past I've taken it into the last over and lost so I felt the sooner we finish it the better.
Shreyas Iyer KKR Losing Captain: Feel drained. I thought it was a good total. Rahul Tripathi didn’t allow us to settle down after the powerplay!. Credit to the pace with which the SRH batsmen played. Our bowlers also didn’t know where it was going. We put on a great batting effort. We will be well settled after the powerplay and we also ended well as we scored some crucial runs in the end. But it was a bad day for us with the ball. We will take the positives out of this and move forward."
Earlier in the day, KKR were put in to bat by Kane Williamson and lost three wickets in the powerplay to be down to 38-3 in 6 overs. Aaron Finch, Venkatesh Iyer, and Sunil Narine fell to Jansen and Natarajan respectively. Shreyas Iyer contributed with 28 before backing away and getting bowled. The two standout batters for KKR were Nitish Rana's 54 off 36 balls and Andre Russell with the finish scoring 49 off 25 balls. 

Natarajan picked up 3 wickets for 37 runs. Umran Malik was the pick of the bowlers with 2-27 in 4 overs. Marco Jansen had excellent figues of 1-26 in 4 overs. Bhuvneshwar Kumar had figures of 1-37 in 4 overs. Suchith was hit for 32 runs in 3 overs because he bowled the final over to Russell. Shashank bowled an over for 10 runs. 

So, SRH wins this and goes to 7th in the points table. KKR slips from 2nd to 4th in the points table. Stay tuned for the post-match presentation coming your way soon.
What a way to finish the game. Aiden Markram finishes things off in style with two sixes in a row as the Sunrisers Hyderabad notches their third straight win in a row and inflicts KKR their second loss in a row. It's the first win for SRH against KKR in five games. Overall, this is their eighth win in 22 games. 

Chasing 176 for the win, SRH rode on ex-KKR man Rahul Tripathi's 71 off 37 balls with 4 fours and 6 sixes alongside Aiden Markram's 68 off 36 balls unbeaten that helped SRH sail through with 13 balls to spare. This after Abhishek Sharma fell for 3 and Kane Williamson for 17 off 16 balls. Nicholas Pooran was unbeaten on 5 runs but he was a mere spectator. 

For the KKR bowlers, it wasn't their best day with the ball. Umesh Yadav was wicketless while Cummins was expensive in his one wicket. Dre Russ picked up 2 wickets alongside his brilliant batting at the death. Varun Chakravarthy had a day to forget as he went for 45 runs in 3 overs. Sunil Narine was the best bowler as he kept things tight in his 23 runs off 4 overs. SRH wins this by 7 wickets and climbs up to 7th in the table with 6 points from 5 games. KKR now has 6 points from 6 games.  
17.5 P Cummins to A Markram
6 SRH WINS THE MATCH HERE IN JUST 17.5 OVERS. Short of length delivery on the stumps, poor delivery yet again from Cummins, Markram is in too good form to miss out on these as he stands there and hooks it firmly over the deep square leg boundary!
