11.45pm Should have been a super over but one moment has changed this season. Daredevils are right in this again. What a chase, Nair timed it excellently. Maybe left it too far in the end but worked out in the end. With this win, Daredevils move to 14 points and stay alive. Sunrisers lose the match but not their position in the points table.

Karun Nair is the Man of the Match: "I have no words to describe the feeling. My best IPL knock. I'm used to adjusting from the longer formats."

Zaheer Khan: "Dug-out was like thunder monkey out there. Everyone wanted this win badly. I said irrespective of the result, we are going to smile out there. Great fight. Few situations not going our way. This season is all about having that young energy around. Good things are in store."

David Warner: "Our fielding was sloppy, I'm responsible for that. We felt 150 was par, hard ground to defend. Karun played an excellent knock. We got a game coming up, we got to refresh."

Kumar to Nair, FOUR, through Warner at mid-on and Daredevils have a much needed win. What a game. Nair has done it. Back of a length on middle, Nair slaps another to wide mid-on. Warner, it seemed, dived over the ball. And to the long-on boundary. Warner beats the turf as he misses

One will give us a superover. I reckon Nair will look to push this ball into the outfield and scamper back for the second. He cannot miss the ball though.
