IPL 2018, Qualifier 1, SRH vs CSK: 5 reasons why Hyderabad lost to Chennai

#2 Lack of initiative in the middle overs

The Sunrisers lost 4 wickets for just 51 runs and needed to rebuild after that. Manish Pandey and Yusuf Pathan took their time in the middle and started to nudge singles around. The duo went so much in the shell that they let the Chennai bowlers dictate things.

No attempt was made to play the big shots. Just 45 runs were scored during overs 7 to 16. Although Carlos Brathwaite did hit some lusty blows at the end it was never going to be enough.
