Sunrisers Hyderabad secured a comfortable victory over Rajasthan Royals, courtesy Manish Pandey and Vijay Shankar. However, once again David Warner became the victim of speedster Jofra Archer alongside Jonny Bairstow.

It was Archer, who reduced Sunrisers Hyderabad 16 for 2 while chasing 155 against Rajasthan Royals. Although it looked like an uphill task, both Pandey and Shankar smashed half-centuries and added an unbeaten 140-run stand and win the match.

And, Captain Warner referred to it as a complete game and he was also happy that their middle-order stepped up.

"I think the way we started was fantastic. We were able to bring it back after the powerplay. It's been a complete game, we have been asking for," he said. "Good to see two guys (Pandey and Shankar) getting the reward for their hard work.”

"It's good to show people that we do have a middle-order. People keep talking about it but if you see, they've hardly got a chance to bat. We haven't lost early wickets before, so they haven't got a chance. Today they showed they can build a platform and finish it, and I'm chuffed for them," he shared.

Notably, David Warner himself lost the battle to Jofra Archer and Archer has now removed Warner 9 times across formats as well.

"I was frustrated in these games when you come against world-class bowlers. There's bit of swing and there's bit of seam and you try hard to get through it, but with someone bowling at 150ks and it's jagging, you can't do much. You are trying to get through the over. You hope it hits the middle of the bat or you get an edge over third man, but the edge goes straight to hand,” he said.
