SunRisers Hyderabad are having one of the best IPL seasons with the bat. The side achieved a big record of scoring the most number of 250 plus scores in IPL history. Interestingly, all of them came in IPL 2024 only. The first time SRH crossed the 250-run mark was during their match against Mumbai Indians at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on March 27. It the game SRH posted 277 for 3 in 20 overs, which also happened to be the best score by a team in IPL back then.
It took SRH less than a month to go past their own record the side smashed 287 for 3 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at M Chinnaswamy Stadium on April 15.
Less than a week to the achievement, SRH put another sensaitonal show with the bat and posted 266 for 7 against Delhi Capitals at Arun Jaitley Stadium, only to give MI a chance to troll back DC. Here's how -
When SRH were thrashing MI on March 27 in Hyderabad. DC had taken to Twitter to post, "Genuine question to @SunRisers batters, breakfast mein kya khaya aaj? #SRHvMI #IPL2024."
Replying to the old post on Saturday night, Mumbai Indians shared a meme of famous comedian Abhishek Upmanyu. The meme had the viral line of the artist, "Aa gaya swaad (Got the taste?)."
