One Win Makes a Big Difference for the Orange Army

Sunrisers Hyderabad have been very consistent with the bat in the ongoing season of IPL and this was again on display the game against table topping Rajasthan team last night. 

Batting first Hyderabad scored a pretty solid 216 runs in the first innings. The middle batting order, including Captain Ishan Kishan, Nitish Kumar Reddy and others contributed to the significant target that was put up by Hyderabad.

However, a sensationally good Rajasthan Royals opening lineup expected to give Hyderabad a big challenge. But the exact opposite turned out to be the case as Rajasthan got absolutely blown away by the opening spell by Hyderabad.

In-form batsmen Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Yashasvi Jaiswal got out cheaply, and this resulted in a catastrophic failure for Rajasthan. This team was overly dependent on the opening partnership of Vaibhav and Yashasvi, and once they failed, things went horribly wrong.

In the end, Hyderabad won the game by margin of 57 runs which is pretty significant in the T20 format, and this helped Hyderabad with the run rate. 

Subsequently, Hyderabad find themselves in the fourth position of the points table and this is going to be very comfortable star for the orange army.

The impressive performances by debut bowlers, Praful Hinge, and Hussain is of great help to SRH and the team will be hoping that they continue the momentum in the next few games as well.
