Bairstow, Warner put SRH in control
April 21, 2021  18:04

SRH 58-0 (8 ovs) vs Punjab 120

Leg-spinner Murugan Ashwin comes into the attack. Warner gets a single off the first ball before Bairstow offers no shot to the next ball, which turns in sharply.

Bairstow pushes the third ball on the off-side for a single before Warner gets a thick inside edge for one to midwicket.

Ashwin bowls on the pads as Bairstow easily clips it to square leg for another easy run before the leggie bowls a leg side wide to Warner, who hits the last ball to long-off for a single.

Part-time spinner Deepak Hooda comes into the attack. Warner cuts the first ball past point for a couple before the left-hander is beaten by a ripper, turning sharply past the edge.

Warner keen to stay till the end, as he watchfully plays out five dots in a row from Hooda, who concedes just two runs in his first over.

SRH in control on 58 for no loss in eight overs, with another 63 needed from 12 overs for victory.
