IPL 2018: 6 Talking points from week 1

2) Sunrisers Hyderabad’s maiden win at Eden Gardens

Sunrisers Hyderabad have won 3 out of 3

The Sunrisers Hyderabad came into the tournament on the back of a ban to their first-choice skipper, David Warner, due to the ball-tampering saga. They appointed the Kiwi star-batsman, Kane Williamson, as their new captain. But despite the change in guard, SRH has produced some incredible performances and sit on the top of the IPL points table with 3 wins in 3 games.

SRH’s third win was particularly special because it was their maiden win at the Eden Gardens in 6 attempts. The Williamson led side boasts of probably the best bowling line-up and that has been evident in the 3 games so far where they have managed to restrict the opposition to fewer than 150 in every game. With some improved batting performance, we can expect Sunrisers Hyderabad’s juggernaut to roll on heading into week 2 of IPL 2018.
