Daredevils vs SRH, 13th match at Visakhapatnam, IPL, Apr 18 2015 - Match Result

Not a bad way to start the weekend, eh? But wait, there's more IPL action headed your way. Knight Riders are taking on Kings XI in a repeat of the final last year. So do hop over there and continue getting your fix. For now, this is Alagappan Muthu saying buh-bye

Duminy is the Man of the Match as well as the winning captain "Unbelievable, what an entertaining game. To have had an impact like that on a game, it's a blessed thing. Proud of the boys about how they stuck to their gameplans," he says. "Anything over 160 was a bonus. We could have got a bit more. [On opening the bowling] They had a few left-hannders, and we wanted to try and strike up front with offspin. [The tight finish]You're never out of hte game in T20, so that's what I tell the boys, Make sure you concentrate on every ball of the game. We always went for our wickets, knew that was the key [Two wins on the trot] Long may it continue, we'll enjoy tonight and play again in two days time"

Abhi: "Played every single game off the edge, Dare Devils taking their name quite literally"

7.30 pm So JP Duminy with his half-century and twin double-strikes today just would not be denied. This did not seem likely to become as much of a thriller as it did. Credit to the Sunrisers' lower order, especially their domestic players, to take it that far. Ravi Bopara played a useful cameo, Karn Sharma's big blows were what sparked the chase back to life and Ashish Reddy didn't do too bad either. But in the end. Daredevils' bowling resources held firm under pressure. Coulter-Nile was brilliant in the last over, with his wide and full deliveries and Mayank Agarwal's contribution with that spectacular save on the penultimate ball cannot be underestimated.

Aravind: "The second example this season where fielding wins you the match. First being Raina's save in the match against the same team (DD) where they also need 5 runs of the last ball."

Lara: "Dehli could have been unbeaten in all 4 games or had 3 losses. Fine margins! "

Rahman: "Instances of a player scoring a 50 and taking 4 wickets in an IPL game - JP Duminy could be the 5th. Who are all others??" ---- Remember Yuvi being among them

PK gets to face now, he's a hitter as well. Needs eight off three! A little chat between the two batsmen now. Long-on, Long-off in

Aziz: "What about a super over? I won't mind one here." More talking, more changes in field placing. Deep square in place, fine leg is up, third man goes finer

Ten off six needed... who're you favouring? Nathan Coulter-Nile is the man under pressure. Third man and fine leg are up

Faysal Ayub: "Seems like Rahul is getting a birthday present after all. A win in a thriller of a finish." ---- Meanwhile, Duminy who had his birthday a couple of days ago wouldn't be quite so chipper

Long-off back, third man up

Mathews, Duminy and Yuvi had a little get together

Square leg comes up, midwicket gets straighter on the boundary, off side boundary populated a little more heavily now

Twenty three off 12... And Mathews has the ball in hand

AT: "it looks like Karn was saving his energy for the bat, legspinners own worst enemy are fellow legspinners!"

Forces a conversation between Duminy and Tahir. Twenty four off 13 seems a bit more doable. Deep midwicket, deep square leg, and long-on

Karn Sharma is in with 39 off 18 needed

Sathya: "Beautiful day to make JP captain in IPL Fantasy" --- That's the second time he's taken two wickets in an over today

Ashish Reddy is at No. 7
