Rashid - wow, that's some effort.
KW with an 83 run head start in the final vs Rayudu.
Nice to Braithwaite close it out this time with 4 runs and 2 wickets in his final over.
Also nice to see BK bowl out in the 18th. I think its the better strategy in these type of defences.
But Rashid - what a match!

So the great SRH bowling attack appears to have a slight fault now.
Thampi has been dropped, Sandeep has been dropped, and Ahmed was a failure last night.
Hales has been dropped, Pandey has been dropped, Hooda recalled after previously dropped, and Pathan has rarely fired. And by now, the slow middle order batting is a real concern.
I think Braitwaite will play the final. But there seems to be 2 spots at least up for grabs heading into the final. I am quite interested in which way Moody goes in replacements if any, and whether he keeps the extra bowling option or stacks the batting.
Of course he may blindside us all and play Chris Jordan (or Nabi oin a dustbowl) instead of Braithwaite.

SRH has this problem with strike rates. If Saha opens then he needs to get going without consuming. Williamson no doubt will play anchor and rightly so. So if Dhawan gets out early then pressure falls on KW. Shakib was never a big hitter and I doubt he can strike at more than 130 tops. Pathan well past his prime and a gamble not worth tbh. Hooda/Pandey lost it. Brathwaite is the only one who can take it up to the bowlers from the get go. Overall like always they will depend on the bowlers to defend semi par scores or bowl Chennai out quickly. I feel Sandeep is a better option than KAhmed.
