He said, “Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma are just hitting from both ends these days. There was a well at one end and a ditch at the other end, the bowlers were being beaten like drums from both ends. They kept hitting. For once my heart felt some relief.”
“The relief was not because RCB were getting runs but it was the first time Head hit a team that did not have Indian in its name. On one hand, on 19th November (ODI World Cup final), he had defeated the Indian team and on the other, Mumbai Indians. I thought, they hate the Indian name, but this time they hit Bengaluru, and it also hurts the heart.”
While Head hit nine fours and eight sixes in his 102-run innings, Abhishek’s innings of 34 runs in 22 balls included two fours and as many sixes. The duo added 108 runs in just 8.1 overs, setting the stage for a big total for SRH.
