Sunrisers smashed the highest team score of 277 runs in 20 overs. Travis Head scored 62 runs in just 24 deliveries, which was carried forward by young blood Abhishek Sharma scoring 63 runs in just 23 deliveries, he also received a man of the match award for his spectacular inning, and the top-notch inning was finished by Heinrich Klaasen who scored 80 runs in 34 deliveries.
