In Sunrisers Hyderabad’s fourth game against Kolkata Knight Riders, Harry Brook finally delivered after suffering three straight setbacks in the ongoing Indian Premier League season 16. The 24-year-old batsman smashed 12 fours and three sixes throughout his innings to achieve a remarkable 100* off just 55 balls.
Because of his performance, SRH scored a whopping 228/4 in the first inning and went on to win the game by a margin of 23 runs. Following his stunning performance, Harry Brook received plaudits from former India bowler Harbhajan Singh, who noted that Harry Brook has so far been able to conceal his problems with spin and that he is seeking to only take singles against them.
Harry Brook bowls quickly and plays it beautifully.
When batting against fast bowlers, he can use a variety of strokes. Even though he struggles against spin, he masks it by taking singles and doubles. He smacks the pacers’ weak balls for boundaries whenever he gets the chance. He is also receiving strong assistance from the other SRH hitters. Going forward, this would give him a lot of confidence, Harbhajan stated on Star Sports.
In their fifth match, SRH will take on the Mumbai Indians on Tuesday, April 18 at Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. Both Mumbai and Hyderabad began their seasons with consecutive losses in their first two games before mounting impressive comebacks in their subsequent two contests.
Hopefully, the previous MI team will face SRH. Mohammad Kaif
Speaking about the impending match, former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif expressed his anticipation to see the aggressive batting style of the Mumbai Indians of old.
“Hopefully, the Mumbai Indians’ previous lineup will face Sunrisers Hyderabad. The last two games were proof that MI used to be recognized for its aggressive batting performances, according to Kaif, who spoke to Star Sports.
Hyderabad has defeated the Punjab Kings and KKR in their last two games, and Mumbai has triumphed over the Delhi Capitals and KKR. Both teams will try to build on their winning momentum and earn a hat-trick of victories after getting their campaigns back on track following a sluggish start.
