CSK vs SRH IPL 2021 Match 23:

But Manish Pandey played an excellent knock of 61 runs off 46 balls that included 5 fours and 1 six. He was also involved in a brilliant partnership of 106 runs for the second wicket with skipper David Warner who scored 57 runs off 55 balls. However, it was Kane Williamson’s incredible cameo of 26 runs off only 10 balls that helped the Sunrisers Hyderabad reach 171 for 3 in their quota of 20 overs. Williamson smashed a total of 20 runs in the 19th over of the innings bowled by CSK pacer Shardul Thakur to provide that extra cushion of runs on this two-paced surface. For the Chennai Super Kings, Lungi Ngidi picked up two wickets while Sam Curran got the crucial scalp of SRH opener Jonny Bairstow.
