On April 12, 2025, at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) achieved a historic eight-wicket victory over Punjab Kings (PBKS), marking the second-highest successful run chase in IPL history. Chasing a formidable target of 246, SRH's triumph was spearheaded by opener Abhishek Sharma's explosive 141 off 55 balls, featuring 10 sixes and 14 boundaries, setting a new record for the highest individual score by an Indian in the IPL. His 171-run opening partnership with Travis Head (66 off 37) laid the foundation for the chase, with Heinrich Klaasen and Ishan Kishan sealing the win with nine balls to spare. Earlier, PBKS posted 245-6, bolstered by Shreyas Iyer's 82 off 36 balls. This victory ended SRH's four-match losing streak and showcased their batting prowess. (PC: AP Photo)
