Klaasen finally breaks free. He lofts the flighted delivery from Rashid straight back over his head for his first boundary, from the 12th ball faced.
Singles off the next two balls before Klaasen swats the spinner wide of long-on for a six.
Two dot balls to end the over as Rashid concedes 12 in his final over, to finish with 31 runs from four overs.
Slightly from Sai Kishore as Reddy slaps it towards the cover where the fielder fails to stop it on the bounce to concede a boundary, as SRH finally get going.
Klaasen looking in ominous touch. He hammers a full delivery straight back over the bowler's head for a four through long-on.
He hits the next square on the off-side for two runs to bring up SRH's 100, in 13.4 overs.
However, the bowler has the last laugh. Two balls later, Sai Kishore strikes with the key wicket of Klaasen, who is bowled for 27 from 19 balls.
Klaasen went back to pull the short ball but Sai Kishore beat him for pace with the arm ball which skidded straight on and pegged back of the off-stump.
That will be a big blow for SRH's hopes of scoring quick runs in the death overs.
Aniket Verma gets off the mark with a single from the last ball.
