Warner, Bairstow power SRH to a huge win over KKR
Valiant knocks by Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) openers David Warner (67 off 38) and Jonny Bairstow’s (80 unbeaten off 43) guided the team to a massive nine-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in an Indian Premier League (IPL) tie, here on Sunday.
The duo forged a crucial 131-run partnership for the opening wicket to help Hyderabad run away with the contest with five overs to spare as all the Kolkata bowlers struggled to pick wickets beside leaking runs right from the start.
Hyderabad now sits at the fourth spot in the points table, while Kolkata slipped to the sixth place following the huge defeat, also their fifth straight loss this season.
