With 5 runs to win from the ultimate supply of the match, Abdul Samad miscued his shot off the bowling of Sandeep Sharma and it appeared like RR have gained the match. However, the celebrations had been minimize quick because the umpire signaled no-ball. Replays confirmed that Sandeep had overstepped and he needed to bowl the ultimate ball another time. Samad was on strike as soon as once more and this time, he made no mistake as he slammed the ball immediately over the bowler’s head for a six and SRH accomplished the best chase on the venue.
