RCB vs SRH Game Was One Of Sixes, Not Of Batsmanship: Aaron Finch

Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bengaluru unleashing a barrage of sixes in their IPL match left little room for batsmanship and what mattered was who hit the most number of sixes, said Australia's T20 World Cup-winning skipper Aaron Finch. Travis Head's maiden T20 ton and Heinrich Klaasen's pillaging 67 drove SRH to a record-breaking 287 for three, which helped them go past their own 277/3 against Mumbai Indians at Hyderabad this March 27.

Head struck the fastest ton of the IPL 2024 and the fourth highest in the history of the competition. He reached the three-digit mark in a mere 39 deliveries.
