Sunrisers Hyderabad hit the highest total in Indian Premier League (IPL) history on Wednesday, posting 277-3 against Mumbai Indians, setting the stage for a 31-run victory.
Hyderabad surpassed the previous record of 263-5, set by Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2013, driven by Heinrich Klaasen’s unbeaten knock of 80 runs off 34 balls that included four boundaries and seven sixes.
Travis Head (62) scored his fifty in 18 balls, a franchise record for the fastest fifty, before Abhishek Sharma (63) scored his score in 16 balls.
Mumbai started the chase well, but the five-time champions fell short, posting 246-5. Hyderabad, who lost their opening match to Kolkata Knight Riders on Saturday, secured their first win of the season, rising to third place in the points table.
Mumbai, who have lost both their matches so far, are ninth in the league.
