On Saturday, April 12, Sunrisers Hyderabad’s opener Abhishek Sharma faced the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Hyderabad and delivered one of the tournament’s most memorable knocks. With an outstanding century at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium this season, the young southpaw at last found his footing. In an interview, Abhishek’s mother expressed her emotional response to her son’s incredible century.
Abhishek Sharma’s knock transformed the game for SRH, who immediately appeared out of the game with a 246 target. Abhishek assisted the squad in chasing down the total with relative ease after scoring 141 runs off just 55 deliveries. Before the scathing blow, his mother and his SRH colleagues discussed his dismal tournament performance in a video that the IPL recently released.
“Sabko khushi hai, maa ko bhi khushi hai, ki match jeeteya khushi hai pure Hyderabad ko.” Thoda stop lag gaya tha lekin ab nahi lagega, ab continue chalega (We won the match, and they’re all happy—me included, and everyone in Hyderabad). In the video, Abhishek’s mother stated, “There was a little halt earlier, but not anymore – it’s going to continue now.”

Mother’s blessings ✨

The upcoming Sunrisers Hyderabad season
There are still many games remaining for SRH to get their season back on track, even with their fantastic performance in the most recent game. They have played six games so far, winning two of them. They will play the Mumbai Indians in their next two games. On April 17, the first game will take place at Wankhede Stadium, and on April 23, they will host the second game.
Before their record-breaking pursuit against the Punjab Kings, the Orange Army had lost four straight games, thus the next eight games will be crucial to their chances of winning.
