<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nNEW DELHI: A superb death bowling effort from Eshan Malinga and Nitish Kumar Reddy helped Sunrisers Hyderabad edge past Chennai Super Kings<\/a> by 10 runs in their IPL 2026 clash at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Saturday.With this win, Sunrisers Hyderabad have climbed to fourth place in the points table, with three wins and three losses.CSK are placed seventh, with two wins and four losses.Asked to bat first, Sunrisers Hyderabad got off to a flying start, with half-centuries from Abhishek Sharma (59 in 22 balls, with six fours and four sixes) and Heinrich Klaasen (59 in 39 balls, with six fours and two sixes) powering them to 194\/9.In reply, CSK fell short by 10 runs. Eshan Malinga (3\/29) and Nitish Kumar Reddy (2\/31) delivered impressive four-over spells to seal the win for Sunrisers Hyderabad.“Looking at how their powerplay went, I was looking at 220-230. To pull it back by 30, I would have taken it any day under 200. It was just about 80 runs needed in 10 overs in the chase. From there it was just about building a couple of partnerships. We scored just four runs in the next two overs after the 10-over mark,” CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad<\/a> said after the match.“Chasing 12-13 at the death is going to be difficult. It’s been three successive games that the bowling unit has been doing really well. Even the powerplay today I thought Abhishek played brilliantly. I think everyone did a good job with the ball. Anshul is working really on his bowling, especially the death bowling. Very rarely you get bowlers who have clarity and tell the captain that I know what to do, this is what I am going to do,” he said.CSK will now face Delhi Capitals on April 21, while CSK will take on Mumbai Indians on April 23.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
