KL Rahul urged to leave LSG 'for sake of self-respect' after owner Sanjiv Goenka's manic on-field outburst post SRH loss
Hindustan TimesTravis Head and Abhishek Sharma orchestrated a spectacular batting masterclass as they propelled Sunrisers Hyderabad to a resounding 10-wicket victory over Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2024 on Wednesday. Sanjiv Goenka in an animated chat with KL Rahul Head's blistering unbeaten 89 off just 30 balls, accompanied by Sharma's explosive 75 not out from 28 deliveries, left the LSG bowlers reeling as boundaries and sixes flowed freely. The visuals following the match showed a sorry state for LSG captain KL Rahul, who was at a “loss for words” after the incredible onslaught from the SRH opening duo. However, a post-match visual that went viral on social media platforms was that of Rahul conversing with LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka following the loss. However, the side faces a mounting challenge to reclaim a spot in the top four this year following the latest defeat in Hyderabad; with only two matches remaining, Rahul's men will have to secure big wins and expect the other contenders to drop points.
