Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Team India pacer T Natarajan has recalled MS Dhoni’s advice to him about managing his fitness and bowling variations and revealed how the tips from Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain helped him grow in his career.&nbsp;

Dhoni was one of Natarjan’s 16 wickets in IPL 2020 in what was a breakthrough season for the left-arm pacer. Natarajan further talked about why he didn’t celebrate after dismissing India’s most iconic captain in IPL 2020.

“I pitched one in the slot and he hit me for a big six — 102 metres or something,” Natarajan told ESPNCricinfo, referring to the match between SRH and CSK on October 13.

“The next ball I got his wicket (and didn’t celebrate) — I was just thinking about that previous ball. After coming back to the dressing room, though, I was happy,” he further said.

The left-arm pacer, who went on to make his India debut across formats after IPL 2020, revealed what Dhoni told him after the match.

“After finishing the match, I also had a chat with him. Speaking to somebody like Dhoni itself is a big thing.

It has been useful for me,” he said.

Kagiso Rabada has not picked up wickets and has lost his purple cap to Mumbai's Jasprit Bumrah. Delhi's batting order had taken a hit too and they needed some thinking to do after a disappointing loss to Mumbai. Shaw could lose his place in the Playing XI due to his poor form.

IPL 2020: Sunrisers Hyderabad take on Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Eliminator clash

Wriddhiman Saha stamped his class with a 45-ball 87 before Rashid Khan dished out a clinical bowling performance as Sunrisers Hyderabad kept themselves alive in the race for IPL play-offs with a whopping 88-run win over Delhi Capital, here on Tuesday.

Asked to bat first, splendid knocks by Saha (87), skipper David Warner (66) and Manish Pandey (44) powered Sunrisers to 219 for two.

Star spinner Rashid then led a fine bowling display to end with the impressive figures of 4-0-7-3, his best in this season.

The Afghan bowled an astonishing 17 dot balls in his quota of four overs, helping his side bowl out the Capitals for 131 in 19 overs.

Sunrisers (10 points) have now moved up to sixth from seventh position with this win, while the Capitals, who slumped to their third consecutive loss, were pushed down to the third spot with 14 points.

Chasing a stiff target, it was a rather ordinary performance by the the Capitals batsmen. Shikhar Dhawan (0) and Marcus Stoinis (5), who was elevated to number 3, perished in the first two overs.

Ajinkya Rahane (26) and Shimron Heytmyer (16) quickly started the recovery work, stitching a 40 run stand, the highest for their team. The duo targeted Jason Holder, collecting 22 runs in the sixth over as Delhi reached 54 for two at the end of the Powerplay overs.

However, Rashid dealt Delhi with twin blows, getting rid of both Rahane and Hetmyer in the seventh over. Skipper Shreyas Iyer (7) was next to depart as wickets continued to tumble at regular intervals.

Seven of Delhi's batsmen failed to reach double digits with Rishabh Pant (36) being the top scorer.

While Rashid was the pick of the bowlers for Sunrisers, Sandeep Sharma (2/27) and T Natarajan (2/26) picked two wickets apiece. Vijay Shankar(1/11), Shahbaz Nadeem (1/8), Holder (1/46) took a wicket each.

Earlier, both openers Warner, who looked in good nick, and Saha, playing his second game of the season, went after the Delhi bowlers from the word go.

Fully capitalising on the field restrictions, the duo smashed boundaries (11 fours and two sixes) every over to collect 77-runs in the first six overs, the best Poweplay figures of the season.

In the sixth over, Warner smashed the tournament's leading wicket-taker Kagiso Rabada (0/54) for four boundaries and a six, helping the Sunrisers reach 100 runs in just 8.4 overs.

Till Warner was taking on the bowlers, Saha played the second fiddle to perfection.

The Australian celebrated his 34th birthday with a half-century off just 25 balls, hitting two sixes and eight fours at the Dubai International Stadium.

To Delhi's relief Ravichandran Ashwin (1/35) broke the 107-run opening stand in the 10th over as he dismissed danger man Warner, who was caught at extra cover by Axar Patel.

With Warner gone, Saha hammered the Capitals bowlers all around the park. The wicketkeeper batsman reached his fifty in style with a boundary. He plundered 12 fours and two sixes before pacer Anrich Nortje (1/37) dismissed him in the 15th over.

Pandey and Kane Williamsion (11 not out) continued the assault on a listless Delhi bowling unit.

For DC, only Shikhar Dhawan and Shreyas Iyer have performed consistently with the bat while others have performed in patches. The spin duo of Ravichandran Ashwin and Axar Patel have also started to concede runs, after witnessing an economical first half of IPL 2020.

IPL 2020, SRH vs DC Preview: Can Warner & Co. keep their playoff hopes alive?

Manish Pandey smashed eight sixes in a blistering 83 after Jason Holder made an instant impact with the ball as Sunrisers Hyderbad kept themselves in the race for IPL play-offs with an eight-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals here on Thursday.

Pandey and Vijay Shankar (52) stitched an unbroken 140-run partnership after Holder led a disciplined bowling display to restrict Rajasthan Royals to 154 for six.

Playing his first match of the tournament, Holder (3/33) came up with an impressive bowling effort while also affecting a run out to destabilise the RR innings. Rashid Khan (1/20) and Vijay Shankar (1/15) picked a wicket each.

During his unbeaten 47-ball knock, Pandey hit four balls to the fence and eight over it, while Shankar struck six boundaries.

The duo played intelligently in a must-win game for the Sunrisers.

With the win, Sunrisers moved up to the fifth spot, while the Royals were pushed down to seventh.

The Sunrisers' chase was off to the worst possible start with skipper David Warner (4) giving away his wicket to Jofra Archer once again in the very first over. The Barbadian-born English pacer then got rid of Jonny Bairstow (10) in his second over.

With the dangerous openers back in the dugout, Pandey made full use of the field restrictions in the first six overs. He targeted young Kartik Tyagi, smashing the right-arm medium pacer for three boundaries and two sixes.

Pandey survived an lbw scare in the ninth over. He continued to pick the Rajasthan bowlers with Shankar holding fort at the other end.

Eventually the all-rounder, too, found his mojo, hitting back-to-back fours off leg-spinner Shreyas Gopal in the 11 over. He also hit Archer for three successive boundaries.

Earlier, Sunrisers, who were struggling at the penultimate spot in the points table with only three wins from nine outings, opted to bowl after winning the toss at the Dubai International Stadium.

For RR, Sanju Samson (36 off 26 balls) was the top scorer.

Put in to bat, Robin Uthappa looked in rampaging form, hitting the first four and six of the innings. He quickly raced to 19 off 13 balls.

However, his time in the middle was short lived. After Ben Stokes (30) hit Holder for back-to-back boundaries in the fourth over, the West Indies skipper effected Uthappa's run out as the Indian was late to turn back at the non-striker's end.

The powerplay overs yielded 47 runs, including six fours and a maximum, for the loss of one wicket.

The big-hitting Stokes was dropped on 17 in the eighth over by Shankar off a Rashid delivery. Alongside Samson, he kept the scoreboard ticking.

A 56-run stand between the two was broken in the 12th over by Holder. Samson, who had reached his highest score since the 85 against Kings XI Punjab in RR's second match of the tournament, was bowled by a slow off-cutter, after pulling the previous delivery over midwicket for a huge six.

Stokes' stay came to an end when the World Cup winning all-rounder was bowled by Rashid in the beginning of the 13th over, with the Sunrisers bowlers making a strong comeback in the middle overs. RR then lost wickets at regular intervals.

Jos Buttler, too, fell quickly as he was sent back by Shankar in the 16th over with skipper Steve Smith (19) also failing to make an impact.

"He picks up wickets, creates dot balls. Look at the economy – 3 for 12 in 4 overs. Leg-spinners generally bowls a full toss, a short ball. He hardly ever does it.

Rohit Sharma's Mumbai Indians and David Warner's Sunrisers Hyderabad are set to lock horns in the 17th match of IPL 2020 at Sharjah Cricket Stadium. It will be the first match on double-header Sunday.

Rohit Sharma's Mumbai Indians and David Warner's Sunrisers Hyderabad are set to lock horns in the 17th match of IPL 2020 at Sharjah Cricket Stadium. It will be the first match on double-header Sunday. Both teams will face each other for the first time in IPL 2020. IN PICS| IPL 2020: High scoring thriller between Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals in pictures Mumbai Indians have had a shaky start in IPL 2020 and currently are third in the points table with two wins and two losses. However, their recent win against Kings XI Punjab will lift Mumbai's spirits and them to keep their momentum. Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya and Kieron Pollard will be key in Sharjah. Their aggressive batting could prove useful on Sharjah's short boundaries. Among the three, Pollard is the one to watch out for. He scored 60* off 24 balls against RCB and 47* off 20 balls against KXIP. Sunrisers Hyderabad won two consecutive matches after recently beating Chennai Super Kings. David Warner and Co. currently sit on fourth in the points table of Indian Premier League. SRH has some aggressive batsmen, but they have failed to score well in the recent matches. However, Warner, Bairstow, Pandey and Williamson will be crucial for the Sunrisers to pose or chase down a score of 200+. Despite world-class bowling line-ups in both teams, it will be the show of batsmen at Sharjah. MI and SRH have faced each other 14 times in the IPL, and they currently share the honours with seven victories apiece. Probable XI Sunrisers Hyderabad: David Warner (c), Jonny Bairstow (wk), Manish Pandey, Kane Williamson, Priyam Garg, Abhishek Sharma, Abdul Samad, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar/Sandeep Sharma, Khaleel Ahmed, T Natarajan Mumbai Indians: Rohit Sharma (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan, Kieron Pollard, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, James Pattinson, Rahul Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah

After facing a third consecutive loss, Skipper MS Dhoni said: "We need to get a lot of things right. We need to take our catches not bowl no-balls. Those are the controllable and may be we are getting too relaxed. We have been a bit too relaxed at times."

"Nobody wants to drop catches but at the same at this level, we need to draw a line and take these catches especially when the team hasn't been doing that outstandingly well. It is very important to be at your best. There are plenty of positives in this game but we will try to come back strong," he added.&nbsp;

During Chennai's batting, Dhoni promoted himself in the batting order after losing quick wickets. His partnership with Jadeja brought CSK back in the game. However, after Jadeja's dismissal, Dhoni failed to hit some boundaries and did not look comfortable while batting out there. CSK eventually lost the match by 7 runs to SRH.&nbsp;

While talking about his batting, he said: "I was not able to middle a lot of deliveries. Was trying to hit it too hard. Looking at outfield it was subconsciously coming to us to hit the ball hard. Tried to get as much as time as possible. Long time back once we lost three in a row."

The team batting second have found it very difficult to chase the scores on this ground in recent years. However, RCB bowlers will be facing the best batting duo of last season David Warner and Jonny Bairstow. Yuzvendra Chahal could be the crucial player for the Royal Challengers Bangalore as he is the team's leading wicket-taker. Chahal could be Kohli's trump card looking at the pitches in UAE. Afghanistan's spinner Rashid Khan could be David Warner's trump card in the match. His prolific T20 records will ensure his place in tonight's playing XI. SRH could include 18-year-old Abdul Samad in the clash after his successful run in Ranji Trophy 2019. The teen has slammed 36 sixes and scored 592 runs at the strike-rate of close to 113. Virat Kohli will be leading RCB's batting department. Aaron Finch, if picked in the XI, Aaron Finch will be playing for his 8th franchise in the IPL in his 10th season.

By virtue of this win, Rajasthan have now moved to the sixth position in the eight-team standings with 10 points from 12 games. &nbsp;

But to stay in contention for a playoff berth, Rajasthan first must win their remaining two away games against Bangalore on April 30 and Delhi on May 4 and then hope for favourable results from other matches.&nbsp;

Despite the loss, Hyderabad have just managed to hold to their fourth place in the table with 10 points from 11 games. &nbsp;

Chasing 161, Liam Livingstone (44 off 26) and Ajinkya Rahane (39 off 34) got Rajasthan off to a flying start with the former taking the attack to the opposition. &nbsp;

The duo raced off to 78 off 55 balls for the opening wicket, picking up 60 runs off the first six powerplay overs before Livingstone perished.&nbsp;

Livingstone was in a murderous mood as he didn't spare single Rajasthan bowler and struck four boundaries and three sixes during his explosive knock before departing in the 10th over, edging one to Wriddhiman Saha behind the stumps off Rashid Khan's (1/30) bowling.&nbsp;

Earlier, Manish Pandey hit a quick half-century before Hyderabad witnessed a middle-order collapse to be restricted to 160 for eight. &nbsp;

Sent into bat, Hyderabad got off to a good start even after the early dismissal of skipper Kane Williamson (13) with Warner and Manish Pandey sharing 75 runs off just 50 balls for the second wicket before losing the plot after the halfway stage.&nbsp;

Nicely placed 103 for one after 12 overs, Hyderabad lost their next seven wickets for just 44 runs before Rashid (17 not out off 8) played a short cameo towards the end to take the visitors to the 160-run mark.&nbsp;

Hyderabad lost Williamson early, cleaned up by Shreyas Gopal (2/30) with a googly in the fourth over. &nbsp;

Warner and Pandey then joined hands and played aggressively to stabilise the Hyderabad innings.&nbsp;

While Pandey was the aggressor of the two, Warner played the second fiddle.&nbsp;

Pandey reached his fifty in 27 balls with the help of eight fours but just when the partnership was looking threatening, a brilliant catch by Smith sent Warner packing. &nbsp;

Warner backed away a long way and tried to slap an Oshane Thomas (2/28) short delivery over extra cover but didn't time the shot perfectly and Smith ran back and dived full length to his right to hold on to a beautiful catch.&nbsp;

Warner's innings was a struggle as he scored 37 off 32 balls but failed to hit a single boundary.&nbsp;

Pandey continued his aggressive instinct and lofted Gopal over extra cover for an exquisite boundary. But the leg-spinner hand the last laugh as he dismissed Pandey in the very next ball, brilliantly caught by Samson as Hyderabad slumped to 121 for three after 15 overs.&nbsp;

Pandey made a fine 61 off 36 balls with the help of nine boundaries. 
Vijay Shankar (8) too perished cheaply, caught by Jaydev Unadkat off Varun Aaron (2/36) in the next over as the batsman went for a big shot. &nbsp;

Wickets kept on tumbling for Hyderabad after a fine first wicket stand between Warner and Pandey. The next to depart was Deepak Hooda for a duck caught one-handed off his own bowling by Unadkat (2/26) in the next over.&nbsp;

But Rashid took the onus on himself and garnered 18 runs off Aaron's final over to take Hyderabad to a respectable total.

IPL 2019: Rajasthan beat Hyderabad by 7 wickets to keep playoff hopes alive

Seventeen-year-old Riyan Parag overshadowed Dinesh Karthik's heroics to guide Rajasthan to a three-wicket win over Kolkata here at the Eden Gardens on Thursday.

With the win, Rajasthan has pushed Bangalore to the bottom place in the point table, taking the seventh position. Kolkata, on the other hand, is in the sixth position.

Chasing 176, Rajasthan got off to a brilliant start as Ajinkya Rahane and Sanju Samson added 53 runs for the opening wicket.&nbsp;

Sunil Narine struck Rahane leg-before for 34 to get a vital breakthrough.&nbsp;In the next over, Piyush Chawla got rid Samson (22) to unsettle Rajasthan.&nbsp;

With captain Steve Smith, Rajasthan was still in a position to turn the tables.&nbsp;However, Narine returned and dismissed Smith cheaply for two.

Riyan Parag formed brief stands with Ben Stokes (11), Stuart Binny (11) and Shreyas Gopal (18) to shrug off the pressure before finding support in Jofar Archer.

Riyan and Archer punished Kolkata bowlers in the death overs to inch closer towards the victory.&nbsp;

With 18 required from 12 balls, Riyan (47) whacked a six to Russell before his bat hit the top of the stumps, forcing him to leave Archer in the middle.&nbsp;

Having needed nine from the final over, Archer smashed a four and a six to Prasidh Krishna, taking Rajasthan over the line with four balls to spare.

Earlier, captain Dinesh Karthik's monumental effort powered Kolkata to 175 for the loss of six after sent in to bat.

Varun Aaron got a major breakthrough for Rajasthan as he got rid of Chris Lynn for a three-ball golden duck in the opening over and returned to dismiss Shubman Gill for 14.&nbsp;

In the next over, Piyush Chawla got rid Samson (22) to unsettle Rajasthan. With captain Steve Smith, Rajasthan was still in a position to turn the tables. However, Narine returned and dismissed Smith cheaply for two. Riyan Parag formed brief stands with Ben Stokes (11), Stuart Binny (11) and Shreyas Gopal (18) to shrug off the pressure before finding support in Jofar Archer. Riyan and Archer punished Kolkata bowlers in the death overs to inch closer towards the victory. With 18 required from 12 balls, Riyan (47) whacked a six to Russell before his bat hit the top of the stumps, forcing him to leave Archer in the middle. Having needed nine from the final over, Archer smashed a four and a six to Prasidh Krishna, taking Rajasthan over the line with four balls to spare. Earlier, captain Dinesh Karthik's monumental effort powered Kolkata to 175 for the loss of six after sent in to bat. Varun Aaron got a major breakthrough for Rajasthan as he got rid of Chris Lynn for a three-ball golden duck in the opening over and returned to dismiss Shubman Gill for 14.

AB de Villiers became the game changer as he stopped Gayle (23) at long-on off Umesh Yadav.

Mayank Agarwal and Rahul recovered Punjab with their 59-run stand for the second wicket.&nbsp;

Earlier, asked to bat, AB de Villiers and Marcus Stoinis powered Bangalore, especially in the death&nbsp;overs to post a daunting total of 202 for the loss of four.&nbsp;

IPL 2019: Bangalore beat Punjab by 17 runs to register 4th win of the season

Virat Kohli was all charged up during Bangalore's game against Punjab at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. Bangalore not only defeated Punjab by 17 runs but also registered their third win on the trot.&nbsp;

But how can a game in IPL be complete without some aggression on the field. During the clash, the fans got to witness two send-off from both team's skipper.&nbsp;

First, it was Ashwin, who celebrated Virat Kohli's wicket with a lot of aggression, later Kohli returned the favour with an abusive send-off. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Chasing 203 to win, Punjab needed 27 runs off the final over.&nbsp;

Captain Ravichandran Ashwin came to the crease and hit Umesh Yadav's first delivery for a six.&nbsp;Ashwin hoped for the same result on the next delivery too but he mistimed his shot and the ball went straight to Kohli.&nbsp;

After safely completing the catch, Kohli made some gestures it seemed he even abused his Indian teammate.&nbsp;

Pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar will lead the Hyderabad team <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/live-updates-ipl-2019-match-41-chennai-super-kings-vs-sunrisers-hyderabad-at-chidambaram-stadium-212979">against MS Dhoni-led Chennai</a> on Wednesday as their regular captain Kane Williamson has returned home due to personal tragedy.&nbsp;

As per the reports, he is likely to return to the squad ahead of the team's next match against Rajasthan on April 21.&nbsp;

Earlier in the season, Kumar had led the team earlier also when Williamson was unavailable due to a shoulder injury.&nbsp;

Bangladeshi cricketer Shakib Al Hasan has replaced Williamson for the match against Chennai.&nbsp;

Also, Manish Pandey has been added to the playing XI at the place of Shahbaz Nadeem.&nbsp;

Chennai have lost two matches in a row and they would be slightly under pressure when they clash with in-form Hyderabad at their home turf.&nbsp;

Despite two consecutive losses, Chennai still sit pretty at the top of the points table with 14 points from 10 games.&nbsp;

But it will be a tough ask for them against Hyderabad, who would be riding high on confidence after their comprehensive victory against Kolkata.&nbsp;

IPL 2019: Hyderabad register a nine-wicket victory over Dinesh Karthik-led Kolkata

KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal struck fluent half-centuries to guide Punjab to a <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/live-updates-ipl-2019-kings-xi-punjab-vs-sunrisers-hyderabad-208823">six-wicket win over Hyderabad</a> in a nail-biting Indian Premier League match on Monday.&nbsp;

Opting to bat, Punjab first restricted Hyderabad to 150 for four and then rode on Rahul and Agarwal's knocks to chased down the target in 19.5 overs.&nbsp;

Rahul (71 not out) and Agarwal (55) stitched 114 runs off 84 balls for the second wicket to take Punjab close to the target.&nbsp;

Chasing 151 for a win, Punjab lost dangerous Chris Gayle (16) in the fourth over with their scoreboard reading 18.&nbsp;

Gayle struck a four and a six each before Deepak Hooda took a brilliant catch at long-on boundary off Rashid Khan's (1/20) bowling to sent packing the West Indian.&nbsp;

Rahul and Agarwal then complemented each other brilliantly as the duo mixed caution with aggression to literally take the game away from Hyderabad.&nbsp;

While Rahul was the enforcer, Agarwal matched his Karnataka teammate with his timing and on the rise shots that included a delectable boundary through covers and a lofted six over the long-off boundary.&nbsp;

Rahul reached his half-century off 34 balls with a boundary off Mohammad Nabi through the wide long-on region.&nbsp;

Desperate to break the partnership, skipper Bhuvneshwar Kumar brought him back into the attack in the 16th over and nearly achieved his goal, only for Yusuf Pathan to drop a sitter.&nbsp;

A short delivery outside the off stump enticed Agarwal to go for an uppercut, which didn't yield the desired connection and elevation but Pathan dropped a sitter at sweeper cover.&nbsp;

But Sandeep Sharma (2/21) picked up two wickets -- Agarwal and David Miller -- in the 18th over to change the complexion of the match.&nbsp;

Agarwal departed soon after reaching his fifty while going for a big shot, caught by Vijay Shankar at deep midwicket off Sandeep Sharma and four balls later Miller to was dismissed by the pacer as the left-hander went for an expansive shot.&nbsp;

It was stroll in the park for Punjab when Rahul and Agarwal were going great guns but the scenario changed completely, courtesy the two quick wickets.&nbsp;

Punjab needed 16 runs off the last two overs and the pressure got the better of new man Mandeep Singh, caught by Hooda off Siddharth Kaul's brilliant penultimate over that yielded just five runs.&nbsp;

The pressure shifted to Punjab in no time as they needed 11 runs off the last over off Nabi but Sam Curran (5 not out) and Rahul played sensibly without committing any harakiri to reach home with a ball to spare.&nbsp;

Earlier, David Warner struck his fourth fifty of the season before Hooda played a cameo in the final over to lift Hyderabad to a challenging 150 for four.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Opening the batting, Warner carried on his bat for an uncharacteristic 70 not out off 62 balls to anchor Hyderabad's innings but it was Hooda's unbeaten 14 off three deliveries that provided the late thrust to the visitors' innings.&nbsp;

Warner struck six boundaries and one six during his knock, but it was Hooda who stole the limelight, smashing Mohammed Shami for two fours and one hit over the fence to pick up vital 15 runs off the last over.&nbsp;

Hyderabad suffered an early blow in the form of Jonny Bairstow (1) after being sent into bat.&nbsp;

Bairstow failed to control a flick off Mujeeb Ur Rahman's (1/34) bowling as Punjab skipper Ravichandran Ashwin took a smart catch at short midwicket in the second over.&nbsp;

The early dismissal, together with some disciplined bowling from Punjab, made life difficult for Hyderabad batsmen as Warner and new man in Shankar (26) found the going tough.&nbsp;

The duo failed to strike big and stitched 49 runs for the second wicket off 57 balls to stabilise the Hyderabad's innings.&nbsp;

But just when it was time to cut loose after a slow start, Shankar edged a Ashwin (1/30) delivery to Rahul behind the stumps as Hyderabad slumped to 56 for two after 10.4 overs.&nbsp;

Promoted up the order, Nabi (12) fell victim to an unfortunate run out after adding just 24 runs with Warner.&nbsp;

Warner was not his elements Monday as he struggled to his fifty off 49 balls with the help of four boundaries and one six.&nbsp;

Warner and Manish Pandey (19) then added 55 runs for the fourth wicket to take Hyderabad forward before Hooda finished off the innings in style to give Hyderabad's bowlers a total to defend.&nbsp;

But just when it was time to cut loose after a slow start, Shankar edged a Ashwin (1/30) delivery to Rahul behind the stumps as Hyderabad slumped to 56 for two after 10.4 overs. Promoted up the order, Nabi (12) fell victim to an unfortunate run out after adding just 24 runs with Warner. Warner was not his elements Monday as he struggled to his fifty off 49 balls with the help of four boundaries and one six. Warner and Manish Pandey (19) then added 55 runs for the fourth wicket to take Hyderabad forward before Hooda finished off the innings in style to give Hyderabad's bowlers a total to defend.

Australian cricketer David Warner made a stupendous Indian Premier League comeback with a scintillating 85, helping Hyderabad reach a challenging 181/3 in their campaign opener.&nbsp;

But unfortunately, the Orage Army failed to defend and <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/ipl-2019-andre-russell-steals-thrilling-win-for-kolkata-against-hyderabad-205352">lost the match to Dinesh Karthik-led Kolkata</a>.&nbsp;

Putting behind the embarrassing ball-tampering scandal, that kept him out last year, the Aussie smashed three sixes and nine boundaries in his 53-ball knock.&nbsp;

His produced an entertaining performance at the Eden Gardens and earned praises for his stunning comeback. But it was one of his big sixes that really caught spectators' eye.&nbsp;

While playing the 32-year-old launched one over the ropes only for it to crash into a cameraman&nbsp;but luckily he was unhurt.&nbsp;

"This has been absolutely bludgeoned. And hit our cameraman as well – what’s he doing?" one of the commentators said.

Another said, "He’s got to duck. He wasn’t even looking. Get a helmet on son."
