IPL 2018, KKR vs SRH: 5 Talking points

#4 Spinners bring back KKR into the contest

Narine dismissed both the SRH openers in successive overs to put the visitors in a spot of bother

Following a splendid performance by their bowlers and fielders, the SRH opening pair of Wridhiman Saha and an in-form Shikhar Dhawan started off brilliantly in their run-chase of the target of 139 scoring 32 runs off the first three overs.

With pace failing to make an impact, KKR skipper Dinesh Karthik opted for the spin of Sunil Narine and the West Indian struck right away dismissing Saha off his very first delivery and followed it up with Dhawan's wicket in the very next over.

Kuldeep Yadav joined in the action dismissing Manish Pandey and suddenly SRH found themselves in a spot of bother at 55/3 and if not for that brilliant partnership between Willamson and Al Hasan, the match could have been much more thrilling towards the end.
