“They are ruining us” – Bhuvneshwar Kumar amazed by SRH batters’ fiery form in IPL 2024

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s experienced fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar joked that their batters are ruining them after regularly posting big scores on the board in the ongoing IPL 2024. The Orange Army posted 266 runs on the board against DC, which is the fourth-highest total in the IPL history.

Earlier in the season, SRH scored 287 runs against Royal Challengers Bengaluru and 277 against Mumbai Indians.

Meanwhile, Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma provided another great platform as they added 125 runs in the Powerplay overs versus DC. Head scored a blistering knock of 89 runs off just 32 balls whereas Sharma scored a 12-ball 46.

Furthermore, Shahbaz Ahmed added the finishing touches as he scored 59 runs from 29 balls. SRH batters have followed the strategy of ‘see the ball and hit the ball, and they have found great success with their aggressive approach.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar told the host broadcasters, “For so many years, this is possibly the first time our batting is clicking so much. As bowlers, we are happy to take the backseat and let the batters do their work and happy do defend so many runs. Honestly, they are ruining us; if one of the games we score 180-200 mentally, it will be tough for us bowlers to defend those. But great to see the way they are batting.”

On the other hand, Kumar also showered praise on T Natarajan. The left-arm seamer returned with impressive figures of 4-19 against Delhi when all the bowlers were taken to the cleaners.

“We know how good he is when it comes to Yorkers. He is someone who keeps working hard, a silent guy who goes unnoticed most of the times. But he is a star for us for so many years playing for SRH. We know how important he is for us, he is truly a match-winner.”

Sunrisers Hyderabad will next take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad on Thursday.
