[Watch] IPL 2025: Sai Kishore gets the better of Heinrich Klaasen in intense battle

The brief matchup between Sai Kishore and Heinrich Klaasen evolved into a thrilling sequence of events during the 14th over of the first innings of Match 19 of the 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Gujarat Titans on Sunday, April 6.

The third delivery of Kishore's over was walloped over the bowler's head for a cracking four. The floated delivery was rightfully dispatched with disdain by Klaasen. The subsequent ball was cut through the point for a couple of runs. A back-of-a-length delivery by the left-arm spinner brought about Klaasen's dismissal.

The ball kept coming into Klaasen, who ended up being cramped for room. It ended up rushing through him and his defences. As soon as the delivery crashed into the stumps, Kishore set off in celebration. Klaasen had been dismissed for 27 (19), with SRH losing their fourth wicket of the evening. 

GT ended up restricting the Pat Cummins-led side to 152/8 after the visitors won the toss and opted to bowl first. Nitish Kumar Reddy's 34-ball 31-run knock was SRH's top scorer in their innings. Mohammed Siraj delivered a masterful performance, securing a four-wicket haul in his four-over quota. His blistering spell ended up containing a stunning 17 dot deliveries.
