IPL Latest News: Match delayed due to rain

19 no. match between SRH and KKR stopped due to rain. KKR won the toss and decided to field first. SRH failed to did a big score. David Warner's buccaneering knock took SRH to a sizeable total. It was a typical innings from Warner as he explored every nook and cranny of the ground with his wide array of shots. In the second over itself he collected a boundary off Morne Morkel through on-side. He also used the switch-hit to cart Johan Botha for a four in the sixth over. Warner then touched fabulous peaks by landing mighty blows off Umesh Yadav, Yusuf Pathan and Sunil Narine. He was eventually dismissed by Morkel, just nine runs short of what would have been a well-deserved hundred. Warner's knock of 91 is the highest score registered by a SRH batsman in the IPL. Shikhar Dhawan too played a fluent hand and helped Warner stitch a century stand. They became the first opening pair in the history of the IPL to notch up three century stands. However, it has to be said that the hosts lost their way a bit in the slog overs. For the visitors, Botha and Morkel kept the lid on the scoring rate, while rest of the bowlers put up a disappointing show.

At the moment, we have started losing overs now. The rain though hasn't stopped.
