Abhishek-Sharma
Afghanistan spinner Rashid Khan believes that Abhishek Sharma will become a proper all-rounder for India in the future. After losing their first three games of the season, the Orange Army finally registered a win in the IPL 2021. They defeated KL Rahul-led Punjab Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Wednesday. After the game, Sunrisers’ leg-spinner Rashid Khan praised young all-rounder Abhishek Sharma for his brilliant performance against PBKS.
Given the responsibility to open the bowling for SRH in this match, the youngster made things happen for his side. The 20-year-old bowled four overs and gave away only 24 runs. He picked up crucial wickets of Deepak Hooda and Moises Henriques to break Punjab’s first inning. After the game, the young all-rounder was seen getting interviewed by the Afghanistan spinner Rashid Khan. Rashid Khan ended the match with figures of 1 for 17 in four overs.
Khaleel Ahmed and Abhishek Sharma were the top performers for PBKS
After opting to bat first, Punjab Kings suffered a top-order collapse. The side lost opening batsman KL Rahul (4) and Mayank Agarwal (22) in the Powerplay itself. Nicholas Pooran (0) and Gayle (15) also failed to perform and left the Punjab-based outfit reeling at 47/7 by the end of the ninth over. KL Rahul and the team have just managed to win one match so far this season. On the other SRH have lost all of their previous games. During the toss, KL Rahul introduced two changes, Fabian Allen and Moises Henriques. On the other hand, the Hyderabad based franchise decided to rope in Kane Williamson and Kedar Jadhav in their Playing XI.
Sunrisers Hyderabad finally got their first victory of Indian Premier League 2021 as they vanquished Punjab Kings by nine wickets at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Wednesday. It was an impressive all-round display from the David Warner-led team as they outplayed Punjab Kings in all departments of the game. Sunrisers Hyderabad bundled out Punjab Kings for just 120 runs and then chased down the target in 18.4 overs. SRH Pacer Khaleel Ahmed and spinner Abhishek Sharma were the star performers for PBKS as they picked up two and three wickets, respectively. The Orange Army will next play against Delhi Capitals on Sunday at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
