Hyderabad: In a thrilling encounter at the Indian Premier League, Sunrisers Hyderabad clinched a spectacular victory against Mumbai Indians during the 8th Match held at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. Setting an IPL record, Sunrisers Hyderabad placed a daunting target of 277 runs for the loss of 3 wickets. With this remarkable win, Sunrisers Hyderabad soared to the third position in the group league standings.
