IPL 2024: Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head Dismantle MI Bowlers In Hyderabad

Mumbai Indians and Hardik Pandya were left gasping for air as the batter took Hyderabad to 173/3 in just 12 overs of play.

Returning to the country where he won his team the ODI World Cup last year, Australia and SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) batter Travis Head went beast mode as he got his maiden SRH cap against the Mumbai Indians on March 27.

The Aussie batter showcased some fine power hitting for the home side, scoring the fastest fifty by any batter in the IPL for SRH. Head’s swashbuckling fifty came in just 18 deliveries. He hit runs all over the ground with the MI bowlers including skipper Hardik Pandya unable to find another breakthrough.

Travis gave Hyderabad the perfect start and then departed with a scintillating 24-ball 62 which came at a strike rate of over 250 on the night.

Abhishek Sharma’s Blazing Innings

Mumbai had dismissed opener Mayank Agarwal at just 11 runs courtesy of captain Hardik Pandya’s delivery in the 5th over. Abhishek Sharma, came in to bat number 3 today and supported Travis Head’s knock with a blazing half-century himself.

The record that was previously held by Travis Head just a few overs ago was smashed by his fellow teammate, who struck a 16-ball fifty for SRH.
