The rain gods had the final say as Match 55 was abandoned due to a wet outfield, handing both SRH and DC one point each. While DC stayed in contention, SRH were officially eliminated, having won just 3 out of 11 matches.
Despite no action in Hyderabad, Virat Kohli (505 runs) retained the Orange Cap, narrowly ahead of B Sai Sudharsan (504). Suryakumar Yadav (475) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (473) remain in hot pursuit, with Jos Buttler (470) and Shubman Gill (465) close behind in what바카라™s shaping up to be a thrilling finish for the top run-scorer race.
GT바카라™s Prasidh Krishna (19 wickets) continues to lead the Purple Cap chart, followed closely by RCB바카라™s Josh Hazlewood (18). Arshdeep Singh jumped to third after a three-wicket haul, now tied on 16 wickets with Noor Ahmad and Trent Boult, but ahead on economy.
