Sunrisers Hyderabad batting unit imploded despite Abhishek Sharma’s rollicking half-century as Chennai Super Kings pacers Jamie Overton and Anshul Kamboj headlined a fine bowling show to restrict the hosts to a below par 194 for 9 in an IPL match in Hyderabad on Saturday (April 18, 2026).

Chennai Super Kings skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad decided to bowl first and once Abhishek Sharma (59 off 22 balls) blazed his way to another 15-ball half-century, one might have thought that the decision had backfired.
