IPL 2024: KL Rahul 'lost For Words' After Watching Head-Sharma Batting Carnage

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper was in awe after watching unreal batting from Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) openers Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma as the duo chased down the target of 166 in just 9.4 overs at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Wednesday.

Head 89 off 30 and Abhishek Sharma 75 off 28 joined hands together yet again as SRH thrashed Lucknow by 10 wickets in an epic run chase which didn't last even an hour. In the process, SRH scripted a new T20 record for chasing the most number of runs in the first 10 overs of a match.

"I am lost for words. We have watched that batting on TV, but that was unreal," KL Rahul said after the match. "Everything was hitting the middle of the bat. Kudos to their skill, they (Head and Abhishek) have worked very hard on their six-hitting. They didn't give a chance to see what the wicket was playing like, it didn't change much, but that mindset and freedom to tee off from ball one... the only way to stop them was wickets in the powerplay and we didn't do that," Rahul added.
