Hyderabad thrash Pune Warriors in IPL Match by 22 runs


Dale Steyn grabbed three wickets in a sensational over as Sunrisers Hyderabad spanked Pune Warriors by 22 runs in a low-scoring Pepsi IPL match 5 April 2013.


The Sunrisers defended a small total of 126 for six with their bowlers producing a disciplined show to bundle out the Warriors for 104 in 18.5 overs at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium.

Steyn dismissed tailenders Bhuvneshwar Kumar (3), Rahul Sharma (0) and Ashok Dinda (0) in the space of four balls in the 19th over to end the Warriors` innings. The South African fast bowler conceded just 11 runs in his 3.5 overs.

Leg-spinner Amit Mishra also claimed three wickets for 19 runs from his four overs, while Thisara Perera took two for 29 runs.

Sunrisers Hyderabad failed to impress with their batting as they could score just 126 for six.
