Sunrisers Hyd 178-4 (20 ovs ) vs KXIP 193-3 (20 ovs) | Scorecard

Kings XI Punjab have recorded their first win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in Mohali after a clinical 15-run win after Chris Gayle's blazing ton.

Although Kane Williamson and Manish Pandey scored 50s, it was never going to be enough as the run-rate kept creeping up.

This is Hyderabad's first loss this IPL season.

Ashwin brings himself on and he gives a run each to Shakib and Manish.

He then bowls a wide and the next ball, Shakib hammers it for a six.

He repeats the treatment and although Hyderabad are certainly staring down the barrell, the loss margin has been cut by a lot by those 2 sixes.

Mohit Sharma comes back into the attack and Shakib gets off the mark with a single.

Manish Pandey then hits a six and gets to his 50 off 37.

14 runs including a wide come off the over.

Sunil Narine has proved to be unstoppable, blazing his way to 461 runs in 11 games at a strike rate of 183, with a century and three fifties.

Jadeja, Chahar, Harshal, Tushar, Mitchell... Who gets your vote?

An angry Sunil Gavaskar lashed out at Virat Kohli over his criticism of commentators, who had questioned his strike rate in T20 cricket.

The pacer praised Prabhsimran Singh and Shashank Singh for helping PBKS recovering in the second inning after losing two quick wickets.
