But on the day that mattered, David Warner outshone Kohli with his inspirational leadership as the Sunrisers Hyderabad won their maiden IPL title beating the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by eight runs in Sunday's final at the Chinnaswamy. For captain Warner, it was the team that mattered the most and he placed team effort above individual contributions as the guiding force behind the Sunrisers' victory.
