Vibhu Suryavanshi gave a scathing reply to Praful Hinge, turning their earlier clash on its head in dramatic fashion during the IPL 2026 clash. Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad. The last time the two met, Henge completely dominated the contest. He dismissed Suryavanshi for a golden duck and took four wickets, earning the player of the match award. Speaking after the game, Heng made his intentions clear. “The best was Suryavanshi’s first wicket, because he was in form. I had already told some people that I would get him out on the first ball, either off the bouncer or somehow. I just wanted his wicket on the first ball,” he had said. This time, however, the narrative quickly flipped. Opening the innings, Suryavanshi took on Henge in the very first over and launched a ferocious counter-attack. He tore through the fast bowler hitting four consecutive sixes to get the momentum going. The over ended on 25 for no loss, with Suryavanshi scoring 24 off just five balls. The attack was merciless. The variations and lengths of the hold varied little as Suryavanshi held her form and cleared the ropes again and again. Whether it was a good length delivery or a short ball, the result remained the same, the ball went over the boundary. This series of sixes not only erased the memory of the previous dismissal but also set the mood of the innings. Suryavanshi continued the momentum and completed his half-century in just 15 balls during the power play. It was another quick fifty this season, having already scored a similar effort against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the tournament. Chennai Super Kings. It was the third time that Vaibhav scored a 15-ball fifty this season. Earlier captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad Pat Cummins He won the toss and decided to field.
