In this episode of the show, Stu and Baldy provide a midweek IPL update to discuss CSK's win against KKR and two final-over thrillers that saw points go to Sunrisers Hyderabad and the Gujarat Titans.

We discuss standout performances from Rashid Khan, Ravindra Jadeja, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Shashank Singh, Sanju Samson, Riyan Parag, Shubman Gill as well as the key moments of these three games.

• Are the Gujarat Titans back?


• Will the Punjab Kings ever give up on a chase?


• Is spin going to be a major factor for the Chennai Super Kings from now on?


• Have Sunrisers Hyderabad found some consistency?


• Was it just a bad day at the office for Kolkata Knight Riders?


• Should the Rajasthan Royals have regrets about only bowling two Trent Boult overs?


• And much more!
