The finish is applied by Nitish Kumar Reddy and Shahbaz

With so many runs already on the board and time remaining in their innings, Sunrisers' fifth-wicket pair could afford to bat relatively conservatively and ensure that Abdul Samad, a specialist death-over hitter, wasn't called on too early. Nitish Kumar Reddy and Shahbaz Ahmed did just that, putting on 67 off 47 balls.

Shahbaz broke free at the death, hitting Khaleel Ahmed for two sixes in the 19th over and two fours and a six off Mukesh Kumar in the 20th to finish unbeaten on 59 off 29 balls. It was the Bengal all-rounder's first IPL fifty.
