Priyam Garg shines as SRH beat CSK by 7 runs in IPL 2020

Young Indian batsmen Priyam Garg (51 not out) and Abhishek Sharma and exceptional bowling by spinners led Sunrisers Hyderabad to a narrow seven-run win over Chennai Super Kings in an IPL match, here on Friday.

SRH scored a competitive 164 for five, riding on former India U-19 captain Priyam Garg's half-century and his 77-run stand with Abhishek (31).

CSK's poor fielding also aided SRH as the fielders dropped Sharma twice in the 18th over bowled by Deepak Chahar.

CSK lost quick wickets at the start and it was left experienced Ravindra Jadeja (50) and his skipper MS Dhoni (47 not out off 36 balls) to do the job.

They added 72 runs for the fifth wicket but could not take the side home, ending at 157 for five.

Sunrisers Hyderabad: 164 for 5 in 20 overs. (P Garg 51 not out, A Sharma 31; D Chahar 2/31).

Chennai Super Kings: 157 for 5 in 20 overs. (R Jadeja 50, MS Dhoni 47 not out, Faf Du Plessis 22, T Natarajan 2/43).
