During the 41st match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) won the toss and set Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) a target of 206 runs. RCB achieved this total through impressive innings from Virat Kohli (51 off 43), Rajat Patidar (50 off 20), and Cameron Green (37 off 20).

SRH, renowned for their strong batting lineup in previous IPL matches, were expected to chase down the target comfortably. However, their power hitters faltered against RCB’s bowling attack. Even Travis Head, the Australian batter who has been in stellar form, managed to score only one run before getting dismissed by Will Jacks. Consequently, SRH suffered a 35-run defeat.

Former South African cricketer Herschelle Gibbs commented on the team’s disappointing loss, particularly highlighting Head’s poor outing in the match.

Herschelle Gibbs jabs at Travis Head’s performance

SRH’s defeat against RCB marked their first loss in their last 5 games. In their previous match against DC, SRH amassed 266 runs at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Following the game, SRH openers Head and Abhishek Sharma humorously remarked that they hoped to see a ‘3’ at the beginning of the score next time, indicating their desire to target a total of 300 runs. However, their esteem became a mockery when SRH failed to chase 207 runs.

This prompted Gibbs to take a sw?ipe at Head. The 50-year-old took to X and expressed that chasing 207 runs on a slow track would have been just as impressive as scoring 300 runs in the first innings.

“I know Travis Head said he wants 300 but chasing 207 on a slower wicket would have been just as skillful,” Gibbs wrote on X.

RCB keep their playoffs hope alive

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) experienced a disheartening loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the 41st match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Opting to bat first, RCB posted a formidable total of 206 runs for the loss of 7 wickets, with noteworthy contributions from Virat Kohli (51 off 43), Rajat Patidar (50 off 20), and Cameron Green (37 off 20).

In reply, SRH’s hyped top order faltered against the RCB bowlers. Despite efforts from Shahbaz Ahmed (40 off 37) and Pat Cummins (31 off 15) towards the end, SRH fell short by 35 runs. The underwhelming performance of the SRH batters at their home ground visibly frustrated team owner Kavya Maran, whose exasperated reaction was captured by t?he camera.

Kavya’s reaction became the subject of amusement among cricket fans, sparking a wave of humorous memes across social media platforms.

Kavya Maran’s epic reaction

Kavya’s iconic reaction occurred during the 10th over of the second innings when SRH’s Abdul Samad was caught and bowled by RCB’s Karn Sharma. Witnessing the talented batter’s dismissal in such a manner, Kavya couldn’t contain her emotions and displayed visible frustration.
