Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) suffered an early jolt on Wednesday’s IPL 2016 Eliminator match against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), when their opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan was dismissed in the second over. Dhawan fell on the final ball of the second over from Morne Morkel, and he was dismissed for 10 off as many balls. Dhawan made some room to play a late-cut, but missed the line completely and his middle stump was knocked down by the lanky Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) pacer. Dhawan made 10 runs, which included two glorious boundaries. After 3 overs, SRH were 15 for 1 with David Warner and Moises Henriques at the crease.
