The Sri Lankan scored 50 off 25 balls, the second quickest fifty of the tournament after Yusuf Pathan's, with the help of seven boundaries and two sixes.
This was Sangakkara's third half-century in the IPL and in the process the Sri Lankan also put on 84 for the opening wicket with Shaun Marsh (60), a partnership that laid the foundation for his team's win.
