Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s (RCB) bowling woes continued as they were put to the sword by a rampant Travis Head in the first half of their IPL 2024 clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).
Opting to bowl first after winning the toss at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, RCB’s bowlers were taken apart by the Australian opener.
Head, known for his aggressive strokeplay, wasted no time in dispatching the RCB attack to all corners of the ground. The southpaw brought up his third IPL fifty in just 20 balls. Head’s knock was a brutal display of clean hitting, comprising three boundaries and a staggering five sixes.
