The Hindu
Sunrisers Hyderabad's explosive starts lead to four consecutive wins in IPL, but opener Travis Head remains grounded.
Riding on explosive starts, Sunrisers Hyderabad may have won four games on the bounce this IPL season, but their swashbuckling opener Travis Head says "we are not getting too far ahead of ourselves." Sunrisers Hyderabad crushed Delhi Capitals by 67 runs in their most recent match in New Delhi on April 20, following sensational knocks from their in-form openers Travis Head (89) and Abhishek Sharma (46).
SRH have made a habit of posting big totals this season, going past 260 for the third time on Saturday.
"It is very enjoyable. It is nice to be here and play well, and it is hard not to smile and enjoy yourself with the batting order that we have got, and the order is working well through the first seven, so it is very enjoyable," Head told JioCinema.
Batting first, Hyderabad scored their fourth 200+ innings this edition by scoring 266 runs, while Delhi were bowled out for 199 runs at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. This was SRH's fifth win of the season.
Head also spoke on SRH's momentum and positive energy around the team.
"We will take it easy for a minute. I think it was Murali's (Muttiah Muralitharan) birthday a couple of days ago, so we have a party for him tomorrow night, so that will be enjoyable.
"I think it's a nice group, we are not getting too far ahead of ourselves. Obviously, we are excited. We have got four wins on the bounce now, we are playing well, and the energy is always better when you are winning.
