RR should win this one.

 

[Smbhayi]

Maiden wicket over for Bhuvi..

 

[Smbhayi]

Sanju missed lot of leg sides balls today...

 

[gani999]

SRH has been rather pathetic of late. They refuse to realise that T20 is a batsman's game and they need power hitters in their side. Instead they keep focusing on their bowling attack, which can't do anything if the batting side puts only 120-140 on the board.

I wonder who the SRH strategist is? Is it VVS Laxman?

 

[Rajdeep]

Liam Livingstone after terrorizing teams in the Hundreds unable to find a run in IPL. Just shows the gulf in class in between the two tournament.

 

[Ab Fan]

No surprises here. The hundred has proved out to be a poor man's IPL. Liam Livingstone has struggled to buy a run in this tournament till now.

Fair to say, IPL is on par with WT20 and better than international T20s.

RR 155 . 3

9 balls to go

160

One over to go , can RR get a big over here

They simply dont have the batsman..

 

[Justcrazy]

165 is the target for Sunrisers here

 

[Justcrazy]

Jason Roy to take strike

 

[Justcrazy]

Sunrisers need 139 runs in 102 balls.


Solid start by Sunrisers here , they are under control here

 

[sam_ahm]

As soon as that full time instagrammer and part time cricketer is dropped from the team, SRH have got 57 in just 5 overs, with Roy doing a far far better job.

 

[Justcrazy]

Jason Roy 31 from 21 Balls has shown he is better choice than Warner right now.

 

[Smbhayi]

Twice in a match scoreboard have all 1s..

 

[Justcrazy]

Jason Roy has won them the game here , whenever Jason Roy gets going his team usually win.

Which is why it is shocking why Roy is only playing his first game of the season when his team has won 1 of 9 games.

Goes to show the think-tank of VVS and Moody sucks. VVS was so happy saving auction money by bidding for players no one else wanted. They were also the only team who went in with only 7 overseas players, they didn't even fill their 8th overseas player quota. They only wanted to save money and act 'Smart'

 

[Justcrazy]

Williamson is the key here , he needs to bat through

You need time to make decision , Warner is not a small player .

Sunrisers need 25 runs in 21 balls.

Is there another twist here
