Shardul Thakur was the standout bowler for Lucknow Super Giants in their IPL 2025 clash against hosts Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Thakur claimed four wickets, helping restrict the Orange Army to a total of just 190/9 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.
The Indian pacer not only registered his career-best bowling figures in the IPL but also reached the impressive milestone of 100 wickets in the lucrative league.
Thakur Makes Early Inroads in SRH Line-Up
Shardul Thakur made an immediate impact after Lucknow Super Giants chose to bowl first. He struck early, dismissing Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan on consecutive balls, leaving Sunrisers Hyderabad at a precarious 15/2.
Thakur wasn’t done yet; he returned later in his spell to remove Abhinav Manohar, followed by his final wicket of Mohammed Shami.
The LSG pacer finished with impressive figures of 4/34 from four overs, playing a pivotal role in restricting SRH.
