IPL 2017: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, 5 Talking Points

#2 Yuvraj-Henriques partnership

Henriques scored a well-crafted half-century

Yuvraj came out to join Moises Henriques at the fall of Shikhar Dhawan's wicket. It was just past the halfway mark of the innings, and Sunrisers had already got off to a blistering start. In under five overs, the left hand-right hand combination smashed 58 runs. When Henriques was finally dismissed, the score read 151 in the sixteenth over.

Some late order hitting, especially by Yuvraj and Ben Cutting, pushed the Sunrisers past the psychological barrier of 200. However, the foundations for such a mammoth score were laid in the middle overs, where both batsmen were busy at the crease and kept picking singles and twos when not hitting the ball out of the park.
