betvisa888Twitter Reactions: Sanju Samson’s ton goes in vain as SRH beat RR by 5 wickets

Sunrisers Hyderabadꩲ (SRH) defeated Rajasthan Royals (RR) by 5 wickets at the Ra🃏jiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Friday and registered their first win of the IPL 2019 season.

Batting first, RR posted a massive total of 198/2 on the board, thanks to wicketkeeper-batsman Sanju Samson’s century, the first of this season, and captain Ajinkya Rahane’s well constructed 70-run knock.

Chasing 199, SRH opener David Warner (69 off 37 balls) hit💙 almost every ball out of the boundary rope for either a four or a six in the power play overs. Jonny Bairstow held🅺 the other side beautifully with 45 off 28 balls.

Yusuf Pathan and Rashid Khan🐷 were left on the crease to score much-needed runs on time and they rose to th𝓀e occasion by reaching the target on the last ball of the 19th over.

Here’s how Twitter reacted:

Great win for SRH. Their highest chase ever in the IPL. A 100 run opening stand always sets up the tempo for such a big chase. Nice Quickfire innings from VJS. And Boy, Rashid Khan can bat, he is a huge diꦿfference between the sides

When some one is in the mood like David Warner was even 200 seems a minor total. How distru𒅌ctive his inning was?

Sanju Samson caresses the ball, David Warner pulverises it. Two differ🎀ent ways of scoring runs!

Whoa,ꦍ he’s got the josh! What a way to finish the match !

Surely, should go down as one of the best chases. The intent from Warner from ball one was scar🌺y.

He can bowl.
He can field.
And he can also bat.
Rashid Khan is the Most Valued T20 🍨p༒layer in the world 🌍

Sunny spot on reminding us about the all-round skills; not just the bowling excellence of Rashid Khan. David Warner was in beast mode tonight and his running with Bairstow, electric!! Th💦at was impressive from .

David 'The Bull' Warner living up to his name in that Powerplay. That was futuristic batting. Stand and deliver, baseball-style hitting. Solid base, still head, huge power.
