Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma wreaked havoc as SunRisers Hyderabad made mockery of the 166-run target set by Lucknow Super Giants at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Wednesday. Helped by Head’s 89 not out off 30 and Abhishek’s unbeaten 75 off 28, SRH reached home in 9.4 overs. Earlier, Ayush Badoni’s unbeaten fifty carried the KL Rahul-led side to 165 for four in 20 overs. Badoni (55 not out) and Nicholas Pooran (48 not out) pushed LSG forward after they elected to bat first on a track which seemed sluggish in the first innings.

After SRH chased down the total with 10 wickets in hand and 62 balls to spare, LSG captain KL Rahul was lost for words and all he could do was to praise the duo of Head and Abhishek rather than going much hard at his own teammates.

However, a poor scene after the game hogged limelight in which LSG ower Sanjiv Goenka was seen verbally slamming Rahul.

The video irked the netizens as they lashed out at the owner for having the heated discussion in public. Some also asked Goenka to learn from the leadership skills of Shah Rukh Khan, the co-owner of Kolkata Knight Riders team since the inception of IPL in 2008.

Check out some of the reactions here:

Shame on Goenka.. He has to learn from SRK and other team owners..

SRK has gone through many ups and downs in his life and knows how to handle losses and hence mature enough…more than Goenka!

KKR had worse humiliation season. SRK and Ganguly were enemies at one point. But still Neither SRK or another KKR owner publicly did this with Ganguly. That’s why we have won 3 trophies and Goenka struggles to win 1 with 2 different teams now in ipl

Despite the loss against SRH, LSG are still alive in the race to the playoffs.
