David Warner’s brilliance on the field brought about a premature end to Nicholas Pooran’s innings. Chris Gayle nudged the ball to David Warner at cover, and the two batsmen (Gayle and Pooran) started for a quick single.

But then, a scintillating direct hit from Warner caught Pooran just inches short of his crease. And, Pooran walked back to the pavilion for a duck without even facing a single delivery. The West Indian left-hander has experienced a torrid time with the willow in IPL 2021. In the 4 innings that he has batted this year, Pooran has recorded 3 ducks and averages an abysmal 2.25 with the willow.

And now, Warner has taken to Instagram to rub some salt on the wounds of Pooran. Warner posted an Instagram story where both Pooran and Warner can be seen smiling. He captioned the post with the words “Don’t run on me boi Nicholas Pooran.”.

Khaleel Ahmed and Jonny Bairstow power Sunrisers Hyderabad to their first win in IPL 2021

The Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) side would have finally breathed a sigh of relief, as they registered their very first win in IPL 2021. In what can be termed as a perfect performance, the David Warner-led side outsmarted the Punjab Kings (PBKS) outfit in every department of the game on 21st April 2021.

After wielding the willow first, the KL Rahul led side struggled their way through to a below-par total of 120 in their allotted 20 overs. The Hyderabad outfit produced an excellent performance with the ball in hand. None of the SRH bowlers went at an economy rate of more than 8 runs an over, and 3 out of the 6 bowlers that the ‘Orange Army’ used went at an economy rate of less than 6 runs an over.

The Hyderabad side comfortably coasted through to victory. The David Warner-led side reached the target with 9 wickets and 8 balls to spare to open their account in IPL 2021. The Sunrisers Hyderabad outfit will next take on the Delhi Capitals (DC) side on 25th April 2021.
