In another thrilling game, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) secured a stunning five-run win against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the 47th match of the Indian Premier League 2023 (IPL) on Thursday, May 4. Aiden Markram almost clinched a successful chase but in-form KKR spinner Varun Chakravarthy defended nine runs in the last over and bagged a Player of the Match award for his one for 20 spell. A win helped the Nitish Rana-led side register their fourth win of this season as they remain in the eighth position in the points table with four wins from ten games.

In a big change to SRH's playing XI, Kartik Tyagi made his first appearance in the IPL 2023 as Umran Malik was dropped after a string of poor performances. Sunrisers Hyderabad now need a miracle to finish group stages in the top four. This was their sixth defeat from nine games in IPL 2023 as they struggle at the ninth place in the points table. However, they have a game in hand, so, hope for the playoffs remains a possibility.
