"It's a good score on the board"- Abhishek Sharma after first innings of SRH vs RCB IPL 2025 match
During the mid-innings break, Hyderabad opener Abhishek Sharma reflected on his team's batting performance in the first innings, saying:
"When we played the first over, we thought it was a good batting wicket. We planned to react to the ball. It's our strength, somewhere we need to look out with the small mistakes we did this year. If the ball is there not to hit, we need to be careful.
"Me and Head thought, it was a 230 wicket and went about that way at the start. It's a good score on the board. It was pending from Kishan, he took it till the last ball and was his day. Kishan's the reason why we have 230 on the board. I hope in every innings, let's hope what Cummins thinks today," Sharma continued.
At the time of the writing, RCB reached 72/0 in six overs with Phil Salt and Virat Kohli at the crease.
