IPL 2018: Hyderabad beat Mumbai by 1 wicket in last-ball thriller
Shikhar Dhawan
It was Deepak Hooda who stood above the rest
In a nail-biting finish, Hyderabad won their 2nd match against Mumbai by just one wicket at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad on Thursday.
Shikhar Dhawan played a splendid knock of 45 runs, but it was Deepak Hooda who played like an experienced finisher to seal the game.
Meanwhile, in the absence of injured Bhuvneshwar, Hyderabad's young bowlers stepped up to keep Mumbai to a below-par score.
Their bowling attack restricted Mumbai to 147 for the loss of eight wickets after 20 overs.
Billy Stanlake and Sandeep Sharma claimed to deplete Mumbai's batting attack.
Sidharth Kaul, who took two stories in the previous match also, claimed two wickets today also.
Evin Lewis became the top scorer for the blue jersey. He made 29 runs before giving away his wicket to Kaul.

Hyderabad skipper Kane Williamson won the toss and opted to ball against Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad on Thursday.
For Hyderabad, the squad is fit and healthy as there are no such reports of injury other than Bhuvneshwar Kumar's sore back. Sandeep Sharma has replaced Bhuvi for the match.
Hyderabad skipper Kane Williamson said, "Going to bowl. Good surface for bowling so we need to bowl well first up. Unfortunately, Bhuvi misses out, he has a sore back, so Sandeep Sharma comes in making his debut for the franchise, so that's exciting for him."
On the other hand, for Mumbai, Hardik Pandya is not playing due to injury. Mumbai skipper Rohit Sharma said, "We are missing Hardik due to injury, so Pradeep Sangwan is playing instead of him. We've left out Mitch McCleneghan, and we've included Ben Cutting instead, who has played a lot of cricket here and knows the conditions pretty well."
(Playing XI)
Mumbai: Rohit Sharma(c), Evin Lewis, Ishan Kishan(w), Suryakumar Yadav, Krunal Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Ben Cutting, Mayank Markande, Pradeep Sangwan, Mustafizur Rahman, Jasprit Bumrah
Hyderabad: Wriddhiman Saha(w), Shikhar Dhawan, Kane Williamson(c), Manish Pandey, Deepak Hooda, Yusuf Pathan, Shakib Al Hasan, Rashid Khan, Billy Stanlake, Siddarth Kaul, Sandeep Sharma
