After being asked to bat first by Pat Cummins, the wonderboy went berserk as he scored 97 runs off 29 deliveries, smashing 12 sixes and 5 fours. After tonight’s innings, he secured the Orange Cap and broke IPL’s records, surpassing some of the greatest cricketers of the tournament and the game as well.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi smashed 680 runs while dominating attacks at an unbelievable strike rate and became the leading run scorer by an uncapped batter in an IPL season. He also struck 12 sixes, which is the most sixes in an IPL innings by an Indian, and also equaled Gayle’s record for striking 10+ for the most number of times. Both have struck 4 times.
It was somewhere in my mind- Vaibhav Sooryavanshi on missing his hundred
"But now, whatever score we have, we’outside the leg-stump look to defend it and execute whatever plans we have. (Was the century on your mind?) I wasn’t really thinking about it like that, but I played that shot after looking at the fielder, and that’s why I mistimed it. If I had gone towards third man, it would have cleared easily. But I tried to hit it straight, and that’s why I missed the shot."
RR are all over SRH
Coming out to chase, Abhishek Sharma went back for a duck, Ishan Kishan, who was striking also, went back for 33 runs, and Travis Head, despite the start, failed to convert it into a big score as half of the SRH side is back in the pavilion with 93/5 inside 10 overs and now the target of 244 runs seems way too far.
