Klaasen Hits Fifty as SRH Recover to 123/4 Against Lucknow

Hyderabad: Sunrisers Hyderabad continue their sensational recovery against Lucknow Super Giants, reaching 123/4 in 16 overs at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.

Heinrich Klaasen has finally brought up his fifty off 33 balls, striking 4 fours and 2 sixes, while Nitish Kumar Reddy remains unbeaten on 49 off 29 deliveries, peppering the boundary ropes with 3 fours and 4 sixes.

The duo has stitched a 97-run partnership off 53 balls, completely reversing SRH’s early collapse that saw them slump to 26/4. The team’s run rate now sits at 7.69, thanks to their aggressive middle-order display.

Lucknow’s bowlers, including Digvesh Singh Rathi and Prince Yadav, have struggled to break the partnership, conceding 72 runs in the last five overs without claiming a wicket.

SRH look poised to post a challenging total as Klaasen and Reddy take full control of the innings.
