Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) pacer Marco Jansen expressed his joy at getting the opportunity to play for the Orange franchise after the match on Saturday against Chennai Super Kings (CSK). He turned out to be a lucky charm for SRH as they clinched their maiden victory of the season after two consecutive losses.

Marco Jansen bowled a decent spell and returned figures of 4-0-30-1. He got the prized scalp of the legendary MS Dhoni in the match.

CSK batted first and managed to score 154/7 from their 20 overs. The Hyderabad-based IPL team chased down the target comfortably in 17.4 overs, courtesy of substantial contributions from the top-order batters.

In a video uploaded by Sunrisers on their official Instagram handle, Marco Jansen reflected on his debut game for the Hyderabad franchise and said:

"I am obviously very glad and very excited to have gotten my first game for the orange army under the belt. Very glad that we were able to get our first win of the season. Very glad to get my first wicket for SRH and it being MS Dhoni. Looking forward to the rest of the season and will take it from here."

Marco Jansen caught the attention of the cricket world after an impressive performance against India in a 3-Test series played last December/January. His performances played a key role in South Africa coming back from a loss in the first Test and winning the series 2-1.
