IPL 2025: Head, Verma Lift Hyderabad To 190/9 As Shardul Thakur Shines With The Ball
Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Shardul Thakur picked 4-34 as Travis Head top scored with 47 to help Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) post 190/9 in 20 overs against Lucknow Super Giants in Match 7 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium here on Thursday.
SRH got off to a fiery start courtesy of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, maintaining a run rate of 13.5 during their brief partnership—the highest for any duo in IPL history (min. 500 runs). Head was in aggressive mode, smashing 47 off 28 balls, before debutant Prince Yadav knocked over his stumps to claim his first IPL wicket.
Meanwhile, Shardul Thakur struck twice in his second over, dismissing Abhishek (9) and Ishan Kishan for a golden duck, making Kishan the latest entrant in the list of players dismissed for zero after scoring a hundred in their previous innings. By the end of the power-play, SRH had raced to 62/2, despite LSG dropping Head twice in one over of Ravi Bishnoi.
