A look at the updated IPL 2023 points table, orange cap and purple cap table after Sunrisers Hyderabad’s 23-run win over Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens
IPL 2023 continues to produce last-over finishes. Sunrisers Hyderabad would have thought they have done enough after posting a mammoth 228/4 and then reducing Kolkata Knight Riders to 20/3 inside four overs. However, Nitish Rana launched a spirited comeback with some lusty blows including a 28-run carnage during which he clattered four fours and two sixes in an over of Umran Malik.

Rana would go on to make 75 as Rinku Singh also joined the fun with a breezy half-century of his own. However, KKR fell short of the target as SRH recorded a 23-run win – their second of the season. SRH’s win was set up by a maiden IPL century from England’s rising star Harry Brook who carried his bat and remained unbeaten on 100 off 55. SRH captain Aiden Markram was the driving force in the middle overs with a 26-ball 50 before a cameo from Abhishek Sharma – 32 off 17.

Despite Friday’s result, Kolkata Knight Riders have kept hold of the fourth spot with two wins and as many defeats from four matches. They have four points to their name.
