In the IPL 2024, Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma led Sunrisers Hyderabad to a decisive 10-wicket victory against Lucknow Super Giants on Wednesday via an exhibition of pure aggressive batting. After chasing 166 without losing a wicket, SRH finished the chase in just 9.4 overs. LSG suffered a significant setback in their IPL 2024 playoff campaign.

The social media community is furious when LSG owner Sanjeev Goenka was seen on tape yelling at KL Rahul after the game. When the incident's footage went viral, many people took to social media to express their displeasure with Goenka's behavior toward the LSG captain following the defeat.
"I'm at a loss for words. That type of batting has been seen on television. But this batting is unbelievable. Everything appeared to locate itself in the bat's center. Bravo for their abilities. Their six striking talents are the result of much practice. They denied us the opportunity to learn the pitch's role in the second inning."
"They teed off from ball one, and it was difficult to stop them. Whenever you are losing, judgments you have made seem questionable. We were behind by 40–50 runs. We were unable to gain any momentum after we lost wickets during the powerplay. We reached 166 thanks to solid batting from Ayush and Nicky. However, they might have pursued it as well even if we had won by 240 "Rahul said following the game.

Did he alter the pitch? Perhaps Abhishek and Travis did. We simply let them go since they are two really optimistic men and I bowl, so I find it difficult to provide them any advice. (On Travis Head) He's been this way for two years; he hits the middle and the hard places, but he's not quite traditional. (Abhishek Sharma): What a fantastic spin and speed guy. It is quite tough for the bowlers to get a run in when there are just two fielders out. Regarding the direction of the game, I believe that the scores have increased. When wickets are plentiful, it is difficult to find countermeasures for batsmen who are aggressive.
