Comfortable chase for SRH
Rajiv Gandhi Stadium at Hyderabad was filled because of the clash of two ex IPL champions Kolkata Kinght Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad. Both the teams were considered as having dangerous squad in this season. Ofcourse both started well and faced some consecutive defeats at middle of the tournament. Now both stands in position 5 and 6 respectively at points table. SRH came to winning road in last match against the table toppers CSK. But the loss continues for KKR. Atleast they expect this match to back in their winning streak. But once again it goes vein.

Chasable target for Sunrisers at Hyderabad pitch. But they have only one problem if they lost Warner and Bairstow quickly definitely its difficult for them to win this match. But Warner and Bairstow know this. Once again they created a dangerous partnership in this season. Knight Riders bowler doesnt know how to break this partnership. Finally they got warner when the score was 131 runs from 12.2 overs. Warner already reached one more fifty in this season. He scored 67 runs from just 38 balls with 3 fours and 5 sixes. Bairstow and Williamson chased the target without wasting balls. They reached the target at 15th over itself. Bairstow remains not out with 80 runs from 43 balls with 7 boundaries and 4 sixes.
Knight Riders losing streak continues in this match too. They did many mistakes today. Knight Riders changed the batting order of their key player Andre Russel. He came at no 7. He is in great form still skipper DK promoting his order if he came at no 4 or 5 definitely he may add some 40 runs with the team score. Now KKR also in delicate position they have to win all the remaining matches to qualify for playoff. SRH plan was too good in last two matches. They are not only focusing on winning they also focusing to increase their net runrate. Now they were in 4th position with with +0.737 as best runrate. For increasing run rate their opening batsmen not worrying about losing wicket they wanted to score as much fast they cam. So that they can chase target earlier and if they lost their wickets also middle order can score the remaining runs without any pressure.
