Match Summary

The Orcas' top-order was ripped through by Zia-ul-Haq and Nandre Burger, leaving them at 21 for 5 by the end of the fifth over. The duo got the ball to nip around, often beating the batters and finding edges. The introduction of spin did not help the Orcas, with Noor Ahmad trapping Sujit Nayak and Harmeet Singh legbefore, reducing them to 27 for 7.

Aaron Jones and Jasdeep Singh managed to register double-digit scores, but their stay was cut short. Jones top-edged a short delivery to short third, while Jasdeep Singh fell to Burger.

Earlier in the day, Super Kings struggled with the bat, but Saiteja Mukkamalla and Marcus Stoinis's 48-run stand helped them grind out six overs. Stoinis's onslaught gave the innings momentum, smashing four sixes in his 12-ball stay.
