Rain halts KKR's chase against Sunrisers

Visakhapatnam, April 22 Rain halted the proceedings of the Indian Premier League (IPL) encounter between defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium here on Wednesday.

Put into bat, Sunrisers posted a formidable 176/4 in their 20 overs courtesy knocks from skipper David Warner (91) and his opening partner Shikhar Dhawan (54). They put on a 130-run partnership for the first wicket.

For KKR, the pick of the bowlers was South African pacer Morne Morkel who claimed 2/31 off his four overs.

Rain then halted play after the conclusion of the first innings.
