Abhishek Sharma's Booking Blunder Deprives Parents of Witnessing His IPL Brilliance
Sunrisers Hyderabad's (SRH) explosive opener Abhishek Sharma once again showcased his exceptional batting prowess in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) on May 8. However, his parents were left disappointed after missing the opportunity to witness their son's brilliance due to an unfortunate error.
In SRH's emphatic 10-wicket victory over Lucknow Super Giants, Sharma played a pivotal role, smashing an unbeaten 75 off just 28 deliveries. His blistering knock, coupled with Travis Head's equally impressive 89 not out off 30 balls, propelled Hyderabad to their target of 166 in a mere 9.4 overs.
Post-match, Sharma was seen engaged in a phone conversation, prompting the anchor to inquire about the identity of the caller. To everyone's surprise, Sharma revealed, "I was talking to my mom and dad. They were scheduled to come for this match, but unfortunately, I booked them a flight for home from another location. I had to book for Hyderabad, but I booked for Amritsar."
Sharma's parents had planned to attend the match at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad, but his booking error prevented them from doing so. The incident has become a source of amusement among fans and highlights the importance of double-checking travel arrangements.
Despite the setback, Sharma's performance has been a major positive for SRH. The left-handed batsman has emerged as a key player for the Hyderabad franchise, consistently delivering match-winning contributions. His ability to score runs at a rapid pace and provide stability at the top of the order has been crucial to SRH's success this season.
With seven wins from 12 matches, SRH currently occupies the third position in the points table. They will be aiming to maintain their momentum and secure a playoff berth in the remaining matches of the tournament.
