The Chepauk ground in Chennai witnessed sensation clash last evening as the Sunrisers Hyderabad took on the home team, Chennai bookings in an important the ramifications of which were crucial for either sidesā€™ fate in making it to the next round of this seasonā€™s IPL. After Chennai posted a comparative, if not tremendously, big score of 180 with Hyderabad requiring 181 runs to win the contest. The side batting second meri home with almost an over to spare. And the man once again in myths of the enrolling action, especially in the second innings was that dangerous batter from South Africa, whose found the second home of sorts in the Hyderabad camp. His name is Heinrich Klaasen and dismissing bowlers left right and centre is his main thing.

The beginning dangerous right hand played some of his final shots last evening in an important knock of 47 as he helped Hyderabad rush home in a must win contest against Chennai, which eventually helped the teams cause in making it to the play-off stage.    

Now for a batsman who is usually calm, simple, methodical and purely focuses on his bat doing the talking was a bit different to the unflustered person we are an accustomed of seeing.

So was it a tense class? Was it a close shave in the middle and were emotions risingā€“ you bet! They were. A particularly heated exchange of sorts, well almost an exchange, took place at the very end of Henriksen innings with the dominant right hand, having made sizeable runs that ultimately helped his teamā€™s cause.

The Protea right hander found himself stumped by Chennaiā€™s Sanju Samson, but the manner of walking away from the pitch wasnā€™t sportsman-like or so it seems!

The visuals clearly captured Heinrich Klaasen, saying a thing or 2 to Sanju Samson, perhaps in the fit of momentary lapse of reason, which led to the rise of anger as he walked off this consulate, having not taken the team over the ropes himself.

At least that is what assumptions are

At was also concerning, is the fact that Sanju Samson of all Cricketers found a heated word or two being said to him when heā€™s a true gentleman of the game and deserves all the respect in regard.

After all, who would have thought class of all matters saying an angry word to Sanju Samson. But while he must be called out, we should also do well to remember that these things happen. Intense close games with so much is on the line and yesterdayā€™s game had a heavy impact specifically for Chennaiā€™s fortunes.
