Sunrisers Hyderabad head coach Brian Lara was “very impressed” by injury-prone pacer T Natarajan, whose performance was one of the few positives to have come out of the heavy loss against Rajasthan Royals in the IPL. The Royals won the game by 72 runs. Natarajan, whose career has been hampered by injuries, bounced back strongly after conceding 17 runs in his first over. He ended with figures of 23 for two in three overs. “First of all injury wise, he [Natarajan ] is back and he has the experience. How he came after the first over was very impressive.
“At one point it looked that we would have chasing 225 plus but they [Royals] struggled to get over 200. There were some positives. The guys can improve from here,” said Lara on Sunday. He also defended their decision to bowl first. “We played a lot of practice sessions alongside the actual pitch. Those were a little bit bouncy and had a bit of pace on them. When we looked at the track for today [Sunday] we felt it was a good track and it was the first game of the tournament.
