After Sunrisers Hyderabad clinched the second spot in IPL 2024 points table with a successful chase of 215 against Punjab Kings, head coach Daniel
Vettori lauded batters Abhishek Sharma and Rahul Tripathi for laying the foundation of the victory through their attacking batting in the Powerplay.
After Travis Head fell for a golden duck, Abhishek and Rahul hit 66 off 28 balls and 33 off 18 deliveries respectively, as SRH ended the Powerplay at 84-2. The scoring rate for SRH never slowed down and Heinrich Klaasen, through his 42 off 26 balls, along with Nitish Kumar Reddy making 37 off 25 deliveries later propelled SRH to complete the chase with five balls to spare.
“Special mention for those two around, as no matter what the situation is, we expect that positive play from the batters. Abhishek and Rahul in particular took the game on to basically win the Powerplay and that is how we have won most of our games, and again that was exceptional.
