The Lucknow Super Giants Team went on to score 169/7 in 20 overs despite tottering at 27 for three at one stage and ultimately went on to win the match by 12 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad here at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai.
"What`s pleasing is that we`ve found a way to stay in the game and give ourselves a good chance of winning. We did that again. Not ideal to lose three wickets early, but we need to give ourselves a little time since we bat deep and we have power at the death. That`s something we need to learn as a batting group - how to do play risk-free cricket while looking for fours. But with the ball we`ve been brilliant in all three games." said LSG captain KL Rahul in the post-match presentation ceremony.
