Whew is the word SRH will use after David Miller almost snatched the game away from them with a fantastic unbeaten 89.
Ishant Sharma was lucky enough not to concede a six more in the final over for it would have put water to SRH's hard work done earlier.
Moises Henriques' three-wicket haul proved to be crucial for SRH in the end as KXIP could not climb past the finish line despite Miller's heroics.
So SRH survive a scare and continue their quest for qualification whereas KXIP can take heart from the 'Miller Show'

TOSS TIME - SRH win the toss and elect to bat first
--------------------------------------------------
Welcome to LIVE coverage of Match 48 of IPL 8 which has SRH facing KXIP at Uppal.
To follow IPL 8 LIVE, click here.
SRH put in a commendable performance in their last outing against RR and clinched a vital win which has boosted their qualification hopes.
KXIP on the other hand have spluttered and choked in every game and it will be a surprise if they come up trumps against David Warner's side.
Despite David Warner and Shikhar Dhawan departing early SRH proved against DD that they are not a two-man team anymore with a fine team performance.
Chris Gayle's super-human century in Bengaluru earlier left KXIP in shreds and though there is no chance in hell for George Bailey's side to qualify still they will aim to bow out with a bang.
KXIP will not have Mitchell Johnson and Shaun Marsh for the remainder of the tournament (thanks to their national committments) and the withdrawal has left a gaping hole in their beleagured ranks.
Do expect SRH to come out all guns blazing against KXIP for another win will tonight will cement their further hopes for play-off qualification.
