In a PBKS vs SRH IPL 2025 match that defied cricketing logic, Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Abhishek Sharma unleashed a 55-ball 141-run blitzkrieg against Punjab Kings, leading his team to chase down a daunting target of 246. This innings not only marked the highest individual score by an Indian in IPL history but also left fans and experts questioning the very fabric of T20 cricket.
Mentor’s Bewilderment after Abhishek Sharma Hit Ton
Yuvraj Singh, Sharma’s mentor and former Indian cricketer, expressed his astonishment to our team (not exactly, but his thoughts may have been), stating, “I taught him, but not that.” The comment reflects the sentiment of many who witnessed Sharma’s unprecedented performance.
Wah sharma ji ke bete ! 98 pe single phir 99 pe single ! Itni maturity ha am nahi ho rahi 🤪 ! Great knock @IamAbhiSharma4 well played @TravisHead24 these openers are a treat to watch together ! #SRHvsPBKS @IPL well played @ShreyasIyer15 great to watch aswell

Abhishek Sharma Aided by Fortune in PBKS vs SRH
While Sharma’s innings was a display of sheer power and skill, it was not without its strokes of luck. He benefited from a no-ball reprieve after being caught, several misjudged catches that landed in no man’s land, and inside edges that raced to the boundary. These instances, while part of the game, added an element of fortune to his record-breaking feat.
Record-Breaking Season
This innings was the pinnacle of a season where Sharma consistently showcased his six-hitting prowess. He surpassed Virat Kohli’s eight-year-old record by smashing 41 sixes in the 2024 IPL season, setting a new benchmark for Indian batsmen.
A New Era of Batting
Sharma’s performance has sparked discussions about the evolving nature of T20 cricket, where traditional strategies are being upended by aggressive, high-risk batting. As teams recalibrate their approaches, one thing is certain: Abhishek Sharma has etched his name into the annals of cricketing history with an innings that will be remembered for its audacity and impact.
As for Abhishek Sharma, he walked off not just with a bat raised, but possibly with a call waiting from SpaceX, Marvel Studios, and the ICC Anti-Gravity Department. Punjab Kings, meanwhile, are still processing how 245 became a warm-up act in someone else’s highlight reel. Yuvraj Singh remains proud, confused, and vaguely threatened.
