Jason Holder playing his first match of the tournament emerged as the pick of the bowlers with three wickets to restrict the Royals to 154 in their stipulated 10 overs. Chasing 155, Hyderabad got off to a dreadful start as Archer removed Warner and Bairstow in quick succession.

It was Manish Pandey and Vijay Shankar who took their time early on, but once set they took them on. The duo put on a 10-run partnership to take Hyderabad over the line in the do-or-die encounter. The Royals are now in a tricky spot when it comes to qualification.
