Watch: Suryakumar Yadav Checks Abhishek Sharma's Pocket Mid-Match During MI vs SRH In IPL 2025. Then This Happens

Abhishek Sharma shares a special bond with Suryakumar Yadav. The SunRisers Hyderabad star, after slamming 141 off just 55 balls in an IPL 2025 match against Punjab Kings, had praised Suryakumar Yadav's role in his rise. Yadav is also the captain of the Indian T20I team. "Special mention to Yuvraj Paaji as well because I have also been talking to him. And I won't deny Suryakumar Yadav as well, he's been in touch, and he was there for me. He was talking to me, and he knew that this was going to happen very soon, so thanks to him as well," Abhishek said after slamming a ton.

Suryakumar Yadav and Abhishek Sharma had an interesting interaction. During Mumbai Indians', where the former plays, match with SRH, SKY could be seen checking the pockets of Abhishek Sharma. In the match, Abhishek scored 40 off just 28 balls. In the match where he scored a ton, Abhishek had brought out a piece of paper thanking the SRH fans. SKY may have been searching for the same. In the same over, Pandya dismissed Sharma. Clearly, the 'pocket check' did not turn out well for Abhishek.

Sunrisers Hyderabad coach Daniel Vettori said it was MI bowlers who made the job extremely tough for SRH batters in the first half of the game, especially in the middle overs. 

"It was just incredibly tough through those middle stages," he
