Sunrisers Hyderabad have successfully defended another low total in the IPL for the second match in a row after beating Kings XI Punjab by 13 runs.
Punjab's powerful batting lineup, which included the in-form Chris Gayle and Lokesh Rahul up front, was bowled out for 119 in 19.2 overs.
That was while chasing Hyderabad's 6-132, which owed some to Punjab's poor fielding.
"It's nice to defend these totals, but we want to be smarter with the bat," Hyderabad captain Kane Williamson said.
"It's not about getting 180 always; get 145, 155, and we can use our bowling to put them under pressure."
Hyderabad top-scorer Manish Pandey was dropped three times while making 54, and Yusuf Pathan (21 not out) also got a life in his 21 not out.
"From where we were, we should have put this game away. It's disappointing," Punjab captain Ravichandran Ashwin said.
"We let ourselves down in the field as well ... always difficult to catch under lights, but there are no excuses. We are professionals and we have to work harder to get back in."
