ABU DHABI: Jason Holder‘s all-round show and Kane Williamson‘s solid unbeaten fifty helped Sunrisers Hyderabad beat Royal Challengers Bangalore by six wickets in the IPL Eliminator on Friday.
Holder first led SRH’s brilliant bowling effort with figures of 3 for 25 to restrict batting-heavy RCB to a modest 131 for seven before he and Williamson steered SRH past the target with two balls to spare.
Scorecard
Williamson (50 not out off 44) played a composed knock and together with Holder (24 not off 20) shared 65 runs for the unbroken fifth wicket to take SRH home after early hiccups.
SRH play Delhi Capitals in the Qualifier 2 on Sunday for a place in the final while the RCB were knocked out of the tournament.
SRH didn’t have the best of starts losing Sreevats Goswami early. Skipper David Warner (17) didn’t last long, edging one to AB de Villiers behind the stumps off Mohammed Siraj.
