IPL 2020: Twitter reacts to Sunrisers Hyderabad’s comprehensive win over Rajasthan Royals

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) notched up an important 8-wicket victory to go 5th in the Indian Premier League points table.

SRH won the toss and chose to field first following which RR got off to a brisk start. However, Robin Uthappa ran himself out after which the runs dried up. Ben Stokes found it difficult to middle the ball and ended up scoring a struggling 30 off 32 balls. The likes of Sanju Samson, Steve Smith and Jos Buttler couldn’t do much but added some valuable runs to the total. Explosive batting by Jofra Archer towards the end took RR to a respectable total of 154/6.

The SRH chase got off to a bad start as both openers were removed cheaply by Jofra Archer. But Manish Pandey launched a counter-attack on the bowlers to boost the score in the Powerplay. He didn’t stop there. He continued hitting balls all over the park supported by Vijay Shankar at the other end to take his side home comfortably.

Twitter reacts to SRH’s crucial win

Following the match, celebrities and fans reacted to SRH’s important win over RR. Here are a few of those reactions:

It felt like Manish Pandey was batting on a different pitch altogether !

Terrible captaincy from Steve Smith this season for RR,should’ve attacked with Archer at his best #IPL #RRvsSRH

If an award has to be given for the worst tactics, I think #RR #KXIP and #KKR will give each other a tough fight. But I will give it to Steve Smith and #RR for some very very bizarre tactics from team selections to batting orders and on field calls. #IPL2020 #RRvsSRH #SRHvsRR

What a knock by @im_manishpandey some of your shots were truly unbelievable! Looks like the place for the 4th is heating up! @SunRisers just showed the depth in batting! #SRHvsRR #IPL2020

The all-round performance of Vijay Shankar is the biggest plus. He had to be batting no 4 as an India player @SunRisers

Would love to see more of THIS Manish Pandey… Fluent, smart, attacking. #IPL2020 #RRvSRH

This fascination of Ben Stokes opening the innings didn't go very well for RR till now. Also, Stokes is not someone to berserk from ball 1. In the garb of being unconventional, managements make these stupid decisions. #RRvSRH https://t.co/uNERIr3tPb

Top class fifty from @im_manishpandey ??
Showing his hitting prowess tonight!?#Dream11IPL #RRvSRH

Has @stevesmith49 made a mistake by not bowling @JofraArcher for another over in the power play @ipl #RRvSRH
