During the clash between SunRisers Hyderabad and Punjab Kings, the Pat Cummins-led side surpassed the Royal Challengers Bengaluru side to become the team with the most sixes in T20 series. Fiery knocks from Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen guided the Sunrisers Hyderabad to chase down 215 against Punjab Kings with five balls to spare at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Sunday.
Batting at a strike rate of 209.41 this IPL season, Abhishek Sharma on Sunday received the biggest compliment of his life when premier pacer Pat Cummins said he wouldn't like to bowl at the explosive left-hander as "it's scary". In the ongoing edition of the league, Abhishek has put fear in the minds of bowlers, including Cummins, his skipper at Sunrisers Hyderabad. He blazed away to a 28-ball 66 in SRH's four-wicket win over Punjab Kings. The young left-hander hit six sixes and five fours as SRH shot down Punjab Kings' target of 215 with five balls to spare.
The stage is set for the Indian Premier League (IPL) playoffs with all four spots now confirmed. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) were the first team to qualify for the playoffs, followed by the early pace-setters Rajasthan Royals, who are going through a bit of slump. SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) also booked their spot in the playoffs earlier this week after being one point for their washed out game against the Gujarat Titans. Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) dramatically clinch the fourth and final spot on Saturday, putting defending champions Chennai Super Kings out of contention.
Rain has interrupted the proceedings for the last game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Guwahati. Toss was delayed due to rain with RR needing a win to finish in the top two, which will give them two chances to reach the IPL 2024 final. SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) defeated Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the first game on Sunday and provisionally occupy the second spot in the points table. (IPL 2024 Points Table)
Abhishek Sharma bossed Punjab Kings bowlers with yet another explosive half-century as Sunrisers Hyderabad cruised to a four-wicket win in the IPL in Hyderabad on Sunday. Opting to bat on a flat track, Punjab Kings posted an imposing 214/5 riding on Prabhsimran Singh's 45-ball 71 and skipper Jitesh Sharma's final over heroics. But SRH looked in complete control of the tall chase after losing Travis Head off the first ball and chased down the target with five balls to spare.
Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Pat Cummins appeared in a relaxed mood a day after his side booked their spot in the IPL 2024 playoffs on Thursday. SRH became the third team along with Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals to book their spot in the Top 4 after their match against Gujarat Titans was abandoned due to rain. In a video that has already gone viral on social media, Cummins was seen enjoying a game of cricket with school kids. Cummins has emerged as a favourite among SRH fans after guiding them to the playoffs thanks to explosive batting performances from top-order stars.
SRH vs PBKS Live Updates, IPL 2024: Uncapped India batter Atharva Taide smashed a huge six off Bhuvneshwar Kumar as Punjab Kings ended the powerplay on a dominating note. Both Taide and Prabhsimran Singh have given Punjab Kings a good start against Sunrisers Hyderabad. On the other hand, SRH bowlers are eyeing some quick wickets. SRH pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar will aim to complete his 300 wickets in T20 cricket. He is just one wicket away from the feat. Punjab Kings stand-in skipper Jitesh Sharma won the toss and opted to bat against Sunrisers Hyderabad in their final league stage match of IPL 2024 on Sunday in Hyderabad. As all the England players have left for national duty, PBKS will be only having the services of batter Rilee Rossouw as the overseas player in the lineup. (Live Scorecard) (IPL 2024 Points Table)
