Rahul Tripathi's counterattack
When Starc and KKR bowlers wreaked havoc, SRH's Rahul Tripathi hit back. He played a beautiful inning of 55 runs in 35 balls amid the dominance of the bowlers. He also got good support from Heinrich Klaasen (32 runs on 21 balls). By the time Varun Chakraborty broke this pair by dismissing Klaasen, SRH's score had crossed 101.
Tripathi became victim of mistake
After Klaasen's dismissal, Rahul Tripathi took the innings forward with Abdul Samad. Both teams took the score to 115 runs. Then a mistake happened, due to which Sunrisers Hyderabad had to suffer. The victim of this mistake was Rahul Tripathi, who had to return to the pavilion after being run out. After Rahul was out, the rest of the batsmen also got out in quick succession. It must be good for captain Pat Cummins who took his team beyond 150 by scoring 30 runs in 24 balls. The entire team of Sunrisers Hyderabad was all out after scoring 159 runs in 19.3 overs.
