IPL 2023 | Twitter reacts to Rahul Tripathi’s redemption as he guides SRH to thrash PBKS by 8 wickets

Save for Shikhar Dhawan’s individual brilliance, it was a pretty decent overall performance by Aiden Markram and his boys, starting with a clinical bowling display. The Kings were left reeling at 78/8 at one point, but Dhawan, by scoring an unbeaten 66-ball 99, made sure they finished with a respectable total of 144/9. Sam Curran’s 15-ball 22 was the second-best score, while the rest could not even touch the double-digits.

For the Sunrisers, Mayank Markande shone with the ball, claiming 4/15, with Marco Jansen (3-1-16-2) and Umran Malik (4-0-32-2) giving him the required support. Then, coming at No. 3, Rahul Tripathi’s blistering 48-ball 74, laced with 10 fours and three sixes, took the game away from the Kings, and Markram joined hands to finish things off in 17.1 overs after walking into the middle when they were in a spot of bother, batting on 45/2. The triumph was much-needed for the Sunrisers, who had two humiliating defeats to start off the proceedings until this fixture.

Sunrisers Hyderabad hunt started. Wicket slowed down a bit in the second innings, yet managed to chase down the target with 3 overs to spare. Well played Tripathi and Markram. Special mention for Mayank Markande whose spell restricted PBKS to 140 👏.#SRHvsPBKS #SRHvPBKS
