Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bengaluru unleashing a barrage of sixes in their IPL 2024 match left little room for batsmanship and what mattered was who hit the most number of sixes, said Australia`s T20 World Cup-winning skipper Aaron Finch. Travis Head`s maiden T20 ton and Heinrich Klaasen`s pillaging 67 drove SRH to a record-breaking 287 for three, which helped them go past their own 277/3 against Mumbai Indians at Hyderabad this March 27.
Dinesh Karthik then smashed a blazing 35-ball 83 but RCB ended up losing the match in which 38 sixes were hit all around the park. "It was never going to be a game where you talk about batsmanship. It`s a game where you talk about who hit the most sixes and that was the difference," Finch said on Star Sports. "They (RCB) had to start at 14 (runs per over). And if you have one bad over it goes to 16." Finch said the Hyderabad side used the Powerplay segment well.
