For a change, Wriddhiman Saha came to open the innings for SRH along with the in-form David Warner. Both of them started to smash the KXIP bowlers from the word go. However, after scoring as many as 77 runs in first six overs Saha was dismissed by Murugan Ashwin in the 7th over. After his dismissal, Warner started building a partnership with Manish Pandey and they added as many as 82 runs for the 2nd wicket before both of them getting out in the 16th over of R Ashwin.

On the third ball of the over, Pandey got inside of the carrom ball of Ashwin, but it doesn’t really bounce and he failed to get under it which barred him from getting the needed power into the scoop shot that he wanted to play and Mohammed Shami took a comfortable catch.

Warner got out on the final ball of the over on the round-arm delivery of Ashwin. The batsman tried to reach to the ball which was outside off hence, he had to put all the power, but he failed to do so and got out playing a tired shot. He walked off the ground amidst of raucous cheers and he sent a kiss towards the crowd as it was his last game this season.
