Sunrisers Hyderabad are on a winning streak, with Abhishek Sharma's evolving batting approach being a key factor. After a mixed start, Sharma has shown increased maturity, adapting his aggressive style to conditions and opponents. This calculated approach has led to significant success, contributing to SRH's surge in the standings.

HYDERABAD: Sunrisers Hyderabad are on a roll, winning three matches on the bounce to surge to No. 3 in the table. Abhishek Sharma’s calculated attack at the top has come in handy.

The southpaw, who struggled during the T20 World Cup, scoring 141 runs with two fifties, had a tough start in this edition of IPL too, with scores of 7, 48, 0, 74 and 0 in the first five matches. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW!

He also failed to trouble the scorers in the first two home matches, going hard at the bowlers. Attacking from the get-go has produced mixed results. However, in the last two innings, Abhishek showed a different aspect of his batting.

He first chose to assess the conditions before going berserk. He scored one run off the first three balls against Matthew Short of CSK and raced to his fastest half-century (15b) in the previous match. And on Tuesday, he played out Mukesh Kumar and Nitish Rana in the first two overs.
