After coming to chase a challenging target of 178, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) did not get an ideal start against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Saturday in Match 61 of IPL 2022 at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune. They only managed to score 54/2 in 8.2 overs, with Rahul Tripathi being the latest man to return to the pavilion. Kane Williamson, the SRH skipper, departed earlier after scoring nine off 17 balls.
Williamson, the batsman, is having a terrible IPL campaign this year. He struggled to get going again, this time against KKR. He tried to be creative against Andre Russell in the sixth over, going to play a scoop shot over fine leg. However, the ball was on the off stump, and Williamson failed to get any connection. It rattled the off stick, and Brian Lara, the SRH batting coach, was seen shaking his head at the SRH dugout following his dismissal.
Here's how twitter reacted following Williamson's wicket:
Should he?
Kane Williamson should drop himself for rest of the tournament

Totally!
It's a shame that Joe Root doesn't register for IPL, Steve Smith goes unsold and Kane Williamson gets 14cr.

Right in 1st over!
Andre Russell strikes in his first over, gets Kane Williamson for just 9. Kane Williamson's poor form continues..
