Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Kane Williamson said that “it is a good feeling” as they got back to winning ways. SRH recorded a comfortable seven-wicket win against Rajasthan Royals at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, on Monday night. Chasing a target of 165, the Hyderabad-based team was given a solid start by opener Jason Roy (60) and then was propelled to a victory by Williamson’s unbeaten 51.

Out of contention from the IPL play-offs, SRH will only be playing for pride now and will look to dent the other team’s morale. However, Williamson said that they will have to make some adjustments in order to win their remaining matches.

“A couple of days now between games, important for us to recover and we have to adapt and make some adjustments. Always a tough team to beat and for us it’s about to worry about our game and play with that smile on the face.”

There were a couple of periods of play that were quite significant and we closed nicely with the ball and to get off the start with the bat like that and it was never easy, had to weather some storms with the ball holding up. It’s nice to finish with a win,” Williamson said during the post-match presentation.
