"Ab kya fayeda khelne se Kane" - Fans react as Kane Williamson helps SRH to beat Rajasthan Royals comprehensively in Dubai
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) finally got off the mark in the second half of the IPL by registering a win against Rajasthan Royals on Monday. Jason Roy (60), who replaced David Warner in the game, proved his worth instantly by putting on a player-of-the-match performance while chasing a decent target of 165.
SRH skipper Kane Williamson (51*) played sensibly. He anchored the innings to take his side home to ensure there were no hiccups after the departure of Jason Roy. Young southpaw Abhishek Sharma (21*) also chipped in with a useful cameo in the death overs.
SRH fans were relieved to see their team win a match after a long time. They took to Twitter to express their views after the match, and this led to some entertaining content on the social media platform.
