Abhishek Keeps Focus On The Field
Despite the off-field distraction, Abhishek delivered a strong performance for SRH in their match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Jaipur.
The left-hander scored a brisk 57 off 29 balls, striking 11 fours and a six at an impressive strike rate of over 196. His innings played a crucial role in guiding his side to victory in a high-scoring contest.
