SRH did not have the start they would have expected as they lost the wicket of Jason Roy early in the powerplay. Jason Roy who earlier scored a fifty in his debut match for SRH was removed cheaply as he scored 2 off 7 deliveries. However, wicketkeeper batsmen Wriddhiman Saha looks firm on the pitch. At the time of writing Saha is batting at 38 in 38 deliveries and has so far scored one four and two sixes. Saha’s run a ball innings is moving the scoreboard for Sunrisers though at a slower rate.

Skipper Kane Williamson did not stay much longer in the pitch as he was dismissed for a run a ball 11 runs innings. A lot was expected from the skipper who scored a fifty in his previous match.
