Sunrisers Hyderabad have broken the record of Royal Challengers Bangalore to post highest team total in the history of IPL as Hyderabad have posted 277 runs eclipsed RCB's previous record of 263 runs. Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klaasen and Aiden Markram teared apart Mumbai Indians bowlers to set a new record of the league.
Opting to bowl first, Head was dropped on 5 off Hardik Pandya at mid off, as Tim David dropped red basket catch. And then Travis Head disclosed his real face to smash the Mumbai bowlers. He went for 6,6,4,4 against the young protea pace sensation Kwena Maphaka, ripped through Hardik Pandya's second over with hat-trick of boundaries, punished Gerald Coetzee for 23 off the over to make history for SRH as he raced his way to fifty off only 18 balls, which is the fastest by any batter from SRH history.
However Gerald Coetzee took his revenge by picking up the wicket of Head when he was 62 off 24 balls, his tornado innings was orchestrated by 9 fours and 3 monstrous blows.
After the departure of Head, Abhishek Sharma took the onus on his shoulders and hammered Maphaka for 4,6,6 and 4. He also teared apart Piyush Chawla and raced his way to fifty off only 16 balls to become the fastest man to score fifty for SRH as he broke his teammate's record.
Piyush Chawla got him out, but SRH brought two South African monster in the crease to keep the tornado going on. Aiden Markram and protea giant Heinrich Klassen smashed MI bowlers everywhere of the park showing no mercy. Even a couple of quite-overs have gone for 11-12 runs. Klaasen notched up his fifty, while Markram was smashing as well.
Sunrisers Hyderabad broke the record of RCB and posted a humongous 277 runs on the board. Heinrich Klaasen was unbeaten with a swashbuckling 80 from just 34 balls, while Markram made a fantastic 42 from 28 deliveries.
