Warner’s Nice 81 Takes SRH To A Big Total
Introduction:
The both teams, SRH and KXIP, both have played 11 matches so far, 5 wins, 6 losses and 10 points.But the only matter that separates both teams is NRR or net run rate.Now Sunrisers Hyderabad has 0.559 and Kings 11 Punjab has -0.117.So the team which will win will climb up for playoffs. On the other hand, a loss will make critical situation for a team to qualify for playoffs.So we expect a tough game between them.We hope both team will keep no room for mistakes.
Toss:
KXIP won the toss and chose to field. They made three changes each for both the teams.SRH included Nabi, Sandeep & Abhishek. And KXIP Brought Prabhsimran,Mujeeb and Arshdeep Singh.
SRH makes an accelerating start:
In 5 overs SRH have made 66 runs already.And they ended up with 77 runs in powerplay- this highest in this IPL. Details in powerplay:
1st over: 10 runs
2nd over: 10 runs
3rd over: 15 runs
4th over: 18 runs
5th over: 13 runs
6th over: 11 runs with 0 wickets.
KXIP’s 1st breakthrough:
After much frustration, Murugan Ashwin got Wriddhiman Saha to edge behind . And the umpire checked this again and again with confusion and finally ruled the batsman out.
Manish got life:
Manish smashed Shami on the up but the ball flew straight to the captain R Ashwin. The captain jumped and got one hand to the ball but could not able to hold. Warner elevated to half century in the next ball.
SRH on top:
We saw a superb team effort here. Warner and Pandey hold the momentum and took the total run to 150.They still had 5 overs more in hand.
But good news for KXIP fans:
We have told you earlier that SRH team players hold the momentum but Pandey & Warner went back to the pavilion in the same over to R Ashwin.And KXIP team can think to restrict the opponent to 200 runs max.
SRH rocked again:
Now the ending in near. But both Williamson and Nabi hammered Mujeeb’s over for a 26 run over. And that took Mujeeb as the most expensive spinner in IPL. SRH close to 200 too.
SRH ended with 212:
Thats a huge total for SRH. Nami scored 20 off 10 and Williamson hammered 14 off 7 balls.So finally SRH players took the total to 212.
