Amazing game of cricket which went down to the final over.
Credit must be gievn to SRH, who despite a slippery out-field managed to stave off KKR and clinch it.
Though Robin Uthappa (34) and Manish Pandey (33) threatened to take away the game at one point, some excellent bowling and fielding ensured that SRH gained a morale boosting win tonight!

----------------------------------------------
Welcome to LIVE coverage of Match 19 of IPL 8 which has Sunrisers Hyderabad facing Kolkata Knight Riders at Vishakapatnam.
Here is the Match Preview of the game which starts at 16:00 IST.
Sunrisers Hyderabad are looking to shed off their inconsistent run of form against a resurgent KKR, which undoubtedly would prove to be a tough task for them.
David Warner's side have been on the recieving end of close game losses which may come to haunt them against KKR.
KKR on the other hand are firing on all cylinders as skipper Gautam Gambhir is in the form of his life.
Yusuf Pathan is also in pristine form for KKR and his big hitting ability and golden arm may help in skittling out SRH.
Andre Russell is another star to watch out for in today's game, as his all-round pyrotechniques may prove too hot for SRH to handle.
Give current form, apart from skipper David Warner, the rest of the SRH side on paper doesn't look good enough to trouble KKR and it may well be another stroll in the park for Gambhir's side.
