Hello and welcome to all the readers
Day 3 of the IPL 2021. Today's match was between Sunrisers Hyderabad [SRH] and Kolkota Night Riders [KKR]
SRH won the toss and elected to field.
KKR started with a blast. The openers gave a good start. KKR lost their first wicket on 53, then a magnificent partnership of 93 for the 2nd wicket was fun to watch.
KKR lost few wickets in quick succession, but the blast in the last over pushed their total to 186/7 in 20 overs
In reply, SRH started cautiously, but lost 2 quick early wickets. Then SRH had a good partnership of 100 runs for the third wicket.
But, the target was getting harder and harder and in the end SRH managed only 177/5 in 20 overs
KKR won the match by 10 runs.
Player of the Match - Nitesh Rana.

Analysis:
SRH bowling was very poor today. SRH gave too many freebies to KKR.
SRH bowlers will have to work on their line and length. As they bowled more outside the line of the stumps.
KKR batting and bowling has been good today. Hopefully KKR will take this momentum to the next game
Overall a fantastic match to watch
thanks for reading my post
see you tomorrow.
