Apr 29, 2019

Hyderabad, Apr 30 (ANI): Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) defeated Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) by 45 runs on Monday strengthening their chances of qualifying for the Indian Premier League (IPL) playoffs at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. For KXIP, KL Rahul scored 79 out off 56 balls but his knock went in vain as he didn't get the support from the other end as the wickets kept falling on regular intervals. While addressing a post match press conference in Hyderabad, KL Rahul said, “Two hundred plus scores has become very common in T-20 games and it is definitely chasable but the kind of start they (Sunrisers Hyderabad) got, I thought they will get about 230 or 240 runs on board. We bowled pretty well in the middle overs, which we have done throughout the series.” “If we stitched in a few partnerships early on then, score of 200 was not far away,” Rahul added.
