Batting Of SRH as a whole unit Vs failure of some RCB big names – Well, what’s in a name? Rightly said! Sometimes building innings matter more than playing audacious shots on air. Exactly what SRH did; great knocks from Shikhar Dhawan, Moises Henriques and Yuvraj Singh sailed them to post 207 for four. Dhawan (40; 31b, 5×4) seized the moment after Warner fell early, as Aniket Choudhary leaked 17 runs in the sixth over and his 74-run partnership with Henriques, who played a little gem of 52 (37b, 4×3, 6×2) put them on a sound footing before Yuvraj demoralised! Whereas on the other hand, RCB indeed from beforehand had lost a bit of charm in camp as the skipper Virat Kohli last year’s orange cap winner, ABD Villiers and KL Rahul was missing on the field due to injury issues! Had Chris Gayle delivered in the manner he had threatened to, it probably would have sealed the deal for RCB on a day. So in the batting department, SRH had totally outcasted RCB.
