#4 SRH bowlers take a beating

More often than not, it is the bowlers that have won the matches for SRH with Rashid Khan and Sidharth Kaul leading their respective departments.
It looked like being a similar story tonight when Shakib al Hasan stuck twice in two balls to dismiss both the Delhi openers - Prithvi Shaw and Jason Roy - back to the pavilion with just 21 runs on the board.
Shreyas Iyer's unfortunate run-out made it 43/3 but it all went downhill for the Hyderabad bowlers from then on as Harshal Patel got the run-rate going before Rishabh Pant took over and decimated the SRH bowling line-up with his meaty blows all around the ground.
The highlight of his knock was the way he dispatched Bhuvneshwar Kumar for 26 runs in the final over of the innings to put a glaring black mark in the fast bowler's reputation as a dependable player in the death overs.
Kumar conceded 51 off his 4 overs while Kaul went for 48 of his quota of 4 overs.
