IPL 2025: '98 Pe Single Phir 99 Pe Single! Itni Maturity...', Says Yuvraj Singh As He Pokes Fun At Abhishek Sharma After His Rampant 141 In SRH vs PBKS Match
Former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh posted a congratulatory note on X for Abhishek Sharma, who dazzled with a century for the SunRisers Hyderabad in the IPL 2025 game against the Punjab Kings on Saturday. Taking to the social media platform, Yuvraj hilariously wrote how such a mature knock from Abhishek is a little unbelievable to see.
Unlike IPL 2024, Abhishek has struggled in the first few matches this year but came good on Saturday as the SunRisers were in pursuit of a behemoth target of 246. The left-handed batter blasted a 55-ball 141, laced with 14 fours and ten sixes as the Orange Army rammed down 246 with ease on the night.
Taking to X, Yuvraj wrote:

"I'd be lying if I say there was no pressure" - Abhishek Sharma
At the post-game presser, Abhishek Sharma revealed that he had written the note 'This one is for Orange Army' which he flaunted after scoring a hundred only today as he felt a big innings was around the corner. He stated, as quoted by ESPN Cricinfo:
"I wrote it today itself because I usually wake up and write something. I got a random thought that if I do something today, that would be for Orange Army. Luckily, today I felt it was my day. I'd be lying if I say there was no pressure. There is pressure if you don't do well in three or four innings, especially if your team's losing."
