==Final==
===Background===
On 26 April, the Supreme Court dismissed the petition against the Bombay High Court's ruling and confirmed that matches should be moved out of Maharashtra including Final which was initially supposed to be held at Mumbai, home of previous season champions.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.indianexpress.com/article/sports/cricket/no-ipl-2016-matches-in-maharashtra-in-may-supreme-court-cancels-mca-plea-2772661/|title=No IPL 2016 matches in Maharashtra in May,Supreme Court cancels MCA plea|date=27 April 2016|work=The Indian Express}}</ref> On 29 April, it was announced that all league stage matches scheduled to be held after 1 May in Mumbai and Pune were shifted to the [[Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium]] in [[Visakhapatnam]] and [[M. Chinnaswamy Stadium]] in Bangalore, which was scheduled to host the Qualifier 1, was also announced as the host of the Final.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/indian-premier-league-2016/content/story/1005797.html|title=Visakhapatnam to host both Mumbai and Pune|date=29 April 2016|work=ESPNcricinfo.com}}</ref>

The final was played at [[M. Chinnaswamy Stadium]], [[Bangalore]], the home of [[Royal Challengers Bangalore]], one of the finalist in [[2016 Indian Premier League]]. This was RCB's third appearance in an IPL final, having lost previous two times. [[Sunrisers Hyderabad]] were playing in their maiden final. Hyderabad and Bangalore share their head-to-head record 4-4 but Hyderabad won only once against Bangalore in Bangalore.

Bangalore scored past 200 runs three times (four times after this match) this season including in a match against Hyderabad.

===Summary===
After winning the toss, [[Sunrisers Hyderabad]] captain [[David Warner (cricketer)|David Warner]] opted to bat first and were given a good start by skipper David Warner and [[Shikhar Dhawan]] by showing their intent early on scoring very big on a ground where tall scores have been chased down nonchalantly. The Australian opener was on fire and smashed 69 off 38 balls and set the platform for Hyderabad's win. [[Yuvraj Singh]], who came in at 97/2 in 10th over, sustained Hyderabad's momentum with his free flowing bat-swing. He raced to 38 with four fours and two sixes before falling to [[Chris Jordan (cricketer)|Jordan]]'s slower ball. [[Ben Cutting]] provided final push in Hyderabad's score clobbering low full-tosses and attempted yorkers of [[Shane Watson]] scoring 24 runs in final over which proved at the end to be a valuable match-turning point.

RCB skipper [[Virat Kohli]] and West Indian [[Chris Gayle]] gave their team the perfect start and in no time reached the 100-run mark without any loss scoring 114 in 10.3 overs with Gayle alone contributing 76. But Hyderabad were able to apply brakes with Gayle's wicket. Hyderabad were able to continue to put pressure on Bangalore taking Gayle, Kohli and [[AB de Villiers|de Villiers]] in the space of 20 balls. Still needing 61 off 37 balls, Watson tried to make up for his lapses with the ball swatting Henriques for a six over long-on but was immediately dismissed along with [[KL Rahul]] leaving rest of the team with too much to do in too little time. [[Bhuvneshwar Kumar]], Purple Cap holder in this season, held composure in last overs delivering successive yorkers and giving just 14 runs in 18th and 20th over combined and helped Hyderabad lift their maiden [[Indian Premier League]] trophy.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/series/8048/report/981019/Royal-Challengers-Bangalore-vs-Sunrisers-Hyderabad-Final-ipl|title=Sunrisers choke RCB chase to seal first title|date=29 May 2016| work=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref>
