Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Abhishek Sharma has claimed mentor Yuvraj Singh would be upset despite the former’s heroic knock. Abhishek Sharma hogged the limelight after his destructive 46-run knock from just 12 balls. He claimed that Yuvraj would be unhappy as the youngster missed out a fifty.
Despite having raked up 257 runs in 7 games, the 23-year-old southpaw has managed to register a solitary fifty so far in the tournament. He looked like a man possessed to hammer each and every ball for Sunrisers Hyderabad against DC. In the end it was Kuldeep Yadav who managed to end his proceedings.
“He would be quite upset at the last I would say. But overall I think he will be happy. He always wants me to bat for longer overs. I am trying my best, it’s just that we are finding more boundaries than we are thinking, so I think he will be okay. But ya, I think that I would hear from him a lot,” said Abhishek Sharma after the match.
Mentor Yuvraj would be overall Happy
Despite missing out a fifty, Abhishek Sharma claimed that Yuvraj would be happy with his knock. The youngster has claimed that Yuvraj always wants him to bat for longer overs. Talking about his own progress, Sharma added that he is trying his best in scoring more runs and finding more boundaries.
“Personally, I always try to plan well for the spinners and main bowlers of the other team. For this match, I knew about being very careful with Kuldeep, as he’s their main bowler and I was watching his videos. I then try to play against any of the similar local or net bowlers to prepare for that bowling style coming in the match, and that helps me a lot,” Sharma concluded.
