SRH opener Abhishek Sharma slammed his second IPL century against Delhi Capitals at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Tuesday.
The 25-year-old, who has been in good form this season scoring two half centuries already, brought up his century off 47 balls with a maximum over deep square leg.
Interestingly, not only did Abhishek score his first IPL century at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium like he did today, he also did so on the same pitch that was used in the match against Punjab Kings last year- Pitch No. 2.
It’s been a sensational innings from Abhishek so far, smashing eight fours and ten sixes to help his side gain complete control of the game.
The opener has showed no mercy to any of the bowlers, striking boundaries at will and taking them to all parts of the ground in front of a full house home crowd.
