Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) skipper Kane Williamson said that Andre Russell’s knock turned out to be a crucial factor in their match against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Saturday at the MCA Stadium in Pune. The 34-year-old Russell won the Player of the Match award for his whirlwind 28-ball knock of 49 with the help of three fours and four sixes.
It Was A Strong Performance By KKR: Kane Williamson
Kane Willaimson after the game said, “I mean largely the first half was good. Dre Russ is always a threat. Showed his class. We tried to create partnerships but KKR were really good. We have been struggling with creating momentum in the last few games. Sundar stepped up in the last over.”
Using our resources a little early didn’t work for us today. We wanted to get off to a good start. We wanted to get some momentum. There were glimpses and signs but wasn’t to be. The run rate got up and we were not able to pull it back. The game teaches us lessons and I am learning them right now”, he further added.
