IPL 2018 Match 10 : KKR vs SRH

SUNRISERS HYDERABAD beat KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS by 5 wickets in the match no.10 of Indian Premier League 2018 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. And Sunrisers Hyderabad seal their first-ever win at the Eden Gardens. But what would please them, even more, will be - it's their third win on the trot this season and surely they have kicked their campaign off in a grand manner. After yet another clinical show from their bowlers, a different sight was witnessed in the run chase. It was Wriddhiman Saha who got them off to a flying start but perished soon after Narine was introduced. The West Indian struck twice inside the Powerplay to stem the run flow.

Kolkata Knight Riders' other spinners then came to the fore. They not only slowed things down but also picked up a couple of wickets in the process to keep the match in balance. However, Williamson kept a cool head and took the matter in his hands. He was happy to milk singles and doubles and then stroked some boundaries to dictate terms. He got an able partner in Shakib as the duo nurtured along and strung 59 runs together to bring the equation down to run-a-ball. Things once again got heated up towards the end as both the set batsmen perished but Hooda and Pathan made sure that they don't repeat the same mistake that the committed against Mumbai in the last game. Both hung in there and safely saw their side cross the finish line with a over to spare. (SCORECARD)
