19.6Sharma to M Ahmedb
Bye. Ashok Sharma to Mohammed Shami. Slower ball short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, missed for 1 run, overthrow by Buttler, mis-fielded by Sharma, fielded by Gill. Lucknow Super Giants have posted a defendable total on the board. Aiden Markram provided a promising start with a brisk 30 off 21 deliveries, but his dismissal stalled the momentum at a crucial phase. From there on, the innings never quite recovered. The middle order struggled to build partnerships, and the scoring rate kept dipping under sustained pressure. It was a superb bowling effort led by Prasidh Krishna, who picked up a vital four-wicket haul, consistently breaking key stands and keeping the batters in check. Overall, a disciplined performance from the Gujarat side ensured they never allowed Lucknow to break free or build any meaningful momentum. Join us shortly for the run chase.
