IPL 2023 Orange Cap and Purple Cap standings after Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad match (Updated) 

The 29th match of the 2023 Indian Premier League (IPL) took place between the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Friday, April 21.

MS Dhoni won the toss for CSK and opted to bowl first. SRH had a lukewarm start and managed to get in a few boundaries, but lost Harry Brook early on to end the powerplay at 45-1.

SRH tried to settle in the game with partnerships, but CSK did an excellent job in the middle overs to prevent them from doing so. The visitors collapsed from 71-1 to 95-5 in no time and tight bowling by Matheesa Pathirana also avoided frenzied death overs.

Chasing 135 for the win, Ruturaj Gaiwkad and Devon Conway breezed past the powerplay and put on 87 runs for the first wicket, which was brought to an end by an unfortunate run out. Devon Conway scored a solid fifty but CSK took their time to trudge to the total after a brilliant spell by Mayank Markande.
