wicket haul by leg-spinner Adam Zampa, Rising Pune Supergiants suffered a narrow four-run loss at the hands of Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League (IPL) Tuesday. It was the best bowling figures by an Australian in T20s as Zampa claimed six for 19 in his four overs to help Pune restrict Hyderabad to a modest 137 for eight after skipper David Warner elected to bat. However, Pune could not script a successful run chase as Hyderabad dished out a disciplined bowling effort, led by veteran seamer Ashish Nehra, who claimed three wickets, to restrict Pune to 133 for eight in 20 overs. For Hyderabad, Bhuvneshwar Kumar (1-20), Moises Henrique (1-20) and Barinder Sran (1-26) also chipped in with one wicket each. With this win, Hyderabad reached the top of the points table with 14 points, while Pune sunk to the seventh spot with six points after its eightth defeat in 11 matches. The loss also put to rest any hopes Pune had of advancing to the next round. Brief scores: Sunrisers Hyderabad 137-8 in 20 overs (Shikhar Dhawan 33; Adam Zampa 6-19) beat Rising Pune Supergiants 133-8 in 20 overs (George Bailey 34; Ashish Nehra 3-29). - Agencies
