Williamson, Bhuvneshwar lead SRH to win
Hyderabad, May 7: The Orange Army are truly the 'Masters of Defense'! Yet again they have come out victorious while defending a total and looks like they are making it a habit. Incredible stuff! Riding on Kane Williamson's 50 and his 64-run stand with Shakib, Hyderabad crawled their way to 146. The wicket was sticky which meant that the hosts wouldn't have been ruled out at all.
When the chase began, Bangalore openers got them off to a good start. Patel departed but Kohli came out, all guns blazing and started to attack from the word go. They were going pretty well and had the run rate well under control. Bangalore had some luck going their way.
But an exceptional catch from Yusuf Pathan saw the back of Virat Kohli and then Rashid Khan sent the big fish, AB de Villiers back as well to tilt the game back in their favor. Those two wickets gave Hyderabad supreme control over the game.
It seemed like this would lead to a procession but Mandeep Singh and Colin de Grandhomme didn't give up. They fought hard and the Kiwi's blitz in Rashid's last over once again turned the game as the equation came down to 25 from 18 balls.But the game had its own plans and SRH came out victorious.
