On Thursday, the RR captain must have back-slapped himself, when Royals restricted SRH to just 134/9, after Watson won the toss and asked SRH to bat first. SRH found scoring difficult after Dhawan got out in the 4th over for 33 off 20 balls. Other SRH batsmen played awkwardly with Finch struggling for 10 balls and scored 9 and Lokesh Rahul and Naman Ojha making some contributions. Moises Henriques and the big-hitting Warner just fished around before losing their wickets and SRH could somehow touch 134, thanks to a run-a-ball 21 from Irfan Pathan.
