Sunrisers Hyderabad showcased their batting prowess again in the 2024 Indian Premier League match against Delhi Capitals, delivering a spectacular performance that left cricket enthusiasts in awe. Led by the dynamic opening duo of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, SRH smashed a formidable total of 266/7, marking the fourth-highest total in IPL history.

The highlight of the innings was the blistering start provided by Head and Sharma, who rewrote the record books by amassing a staggering 125 runs in the powerplay without losing a wicket, setting a new benchmark for the highest powerplay total. Head’s aggressive knock of 89 and Sharma’s explosive 46 laid a solid foundation for SRH’s imposing total.

Sachin Tendulkar’s praise for SRH

Former India captain and batting legend Sachin Tendulkar noted that Delhi Capitals could beat Sunrisers Hyderabad midway through the match.

In spite of this phenomenal start by @SunRisers, I have a feeling @DelhiCapitals have a good chance to win this game. How many of you agree?#DCvSRH

Despite a promising start from Delhi Capitals, with Australian youngster Jake Fraser-McGurk launching a ferocious onslaught on the SRH bowlers, their momentum was halted when Mayank Markande dismissed him in the seventh over. The Capitals’ captain, Rishabh Pant, struggled to find his rhythm throughout the innings and was eventually dismissed for 44 off 35 balls.

Following Sunrisers Hyderabad’s convincing victory, cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar praised the team’s performance, particularly highlighting the exceptional contributions of Head, Sharma, and Shahbaz Ahmed. Tendulkar commended SRH’s dominant batting display, effective bowling variations, and overall superiority over Delhi Capitals.
