Abhishek’s explosive knock also places him among the quickest half-centurions in the league, although the overall IPL record remains with Yashasvi Jaiswal, who hammered a 13-ball fifty for Rajasthan Royals against Kolkata Knight Riders in 2023.

His blistering knock came to an end in the eighth over. In the final ball of the over, England all-rounder Jamie Overton struck as Abhishek was caught by Sanju Samson. The SRH opener departed after a scintillating 59 off 22 balls, an innings studded with six fours and four sixes.
