5 memorable moments from GL v SRH that don’t fade away
That’s it—the Sunrisers Hyderabad have sealed their place in this year’s play-off as they beat the Gujarat Lions by 8 wickets. After a brilliant start for the Lions, who were batting first, they lost their way and bundled out for 154.
Given that, at one point, they were batting at 111 for no loss, this was a very bad implosion on their behalf. In response, the Sunrisers batted with a cool head and won the game, thanks to some good batting display from David Warner and Vijay Shankar.
Here are 5 memorable moments from the match that don't fade away, quite like the Axe Signature range of body perfumes:
#1 Fine opening from Gujarat
What a start it was from the Lions! Their openers roared like the name suggests, leaving the Sunrisers’ bowlers baffled and out of their senses. The pale complexions of Sunrisers’ bowlers was a sight to behold for the Lions’ fans as they were smacked all around the park by Dwayne Smith and Ishan Kishan.
It was the Indian who started off with blaze and gave his team the start that they needed. Smith soon joined the party and the duo put up a stunning partnership of 111 in just 65 balls. While Ishan scored 61 from just 40 balls, the West Indian perfectly complemented him with an innings of 54 runs from just 33 balls.
