HYDERABAD : Sunrisers Hyderabad captain David Warner feels the key to winning matches in Twenty20 cricket, especially IPL, is one good partnership at the top.
“We know in this tournament, it takes one good partnership between two batters, when they rain that can take the game away from the opposition,” Warner said after guiding his team to a five-wicket victory over Kings XI Punjab here last night.
“At the moment, we got our partnership going, RCB got their partnership going, Kolkata got their partnership going. That’s the key, when we are bowling, to break that partnership and when we are batting, to keep our partnership going,” he said at the post-match press conference.
The match saw a 90-run opening partnership between Warner and Shikhar Dhawan. Warner praised Dhawan, who returned to form after an unimpressive run initially.
“At the moment, in the last two games, he is sort of finding the form that we know Shikhar can be in. He is hitting the ball well. We are working together again at the top of the order. When you can get a good partnership going at the top of the order, it helps a lot,” Warner said. (AGENCIES)
