Sunrisers Hyderabad cru𝄹ised to their third win on the trot in the Indian🀅 Premier League (IPL) 2018 as they beat Rajasthan Royals (RR) by 11 runs at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Sunday.
RR lost Rahul Tripathi early on but Sanju Samson and Ajinkya Rahane stitched a fifty✃ partnership. However, the men in orange found a way back into the match 🌸as they picked up wickets regularly.
Skipper Rahane was the lone hope for the hosts but Kan🎐e Williamson an🦋d Co. held their nerves to continue their winning run.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to SRH’s win over RR:
It’s always good catching up with the very v🦩ery special 💖. Congratulations on the third victory in a row

Not Once, Not Twice but Thrice!!! The bowlers have been defending targets with ridiculous ease. When the field𒊎ing unit steps up to back a𓃲nd compliment the bowling front results tend to work your way. Brilliant!!

Another jailbreak win for Sunrisers Hyderabad… Bowling wins you T20 matches and they clearly have an attack to do it again and again. Best in this season!

A🉐nother clinical performance by the bowlers. Good to keep the momentum going. Good knocks by Alex Hales and Kane. Hope to carry on this momentum which is so important in thꦯis format.

R🎶ahane is the first opener to have 2 ꩵunbeaten 50+ scores in unsuccessful chases in IPL.
He scored 84* (63/9 v DD in a chase of 153 and lost by 1 run in 2012 and 65* off 53🍒 today in chase of 152 and lost by 11 runs.

This SRH bowling unit is inculcating some bad habits in their batsmen. Don't matter what you score, we got it 😉😄👏👏

I love Ajinkya Rahane, but if you bat through chasing 151, you ought to take your side over the line. 65 not out off 53 balls isn't good enough in T20

Aj🧸inkya Rahane practicing for the England test matches already. What dedication.

You know whats the biggest scam ever in india……
"Ajinkya Rahane as aT20 player…."— Bhosale Shashikant (@Bhosale_shashi)
Ajinkya Rahane is behaving as i♎f he is Dh💎oni or ABD that he can score 30+ of the last two overs.
