IPL 2018, DD vs SRH: 5 talking points from the match between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Daredevils

Modified May 06, 2018 02:09 IST

#3 The opening stand between Hales and Dhawan

One of the key reasons behind Sunrisers' win was the brilliant opening partnership between Hales and Dhawan. The partnership included Hales smashing three sixes off Khan and Dhawan contributing with one in the final powerplay over.

Barring that over, the duo batted more or less calmly. The duo put a lot of pressure on the Delhi bowlers and added 76 runs for the first wicket.

The partnership was broken when Hales was dismissed for his second consecutive 45 of the tournament and it came from 31 deliveries.

SRH will be hoping that Hales and Dhawan produce similar performances in their upcoming games.
