On Friday, May 23, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are taking on Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in match number 65 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. However, both teams are coming off similar results in their previous matches, the Bengaluru-based franchise will be playing for a top two finish.
For the unversed, RCB’s stand-in skipper, Jitesh Sharma won the toss and elected to bowl first. With Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma returning at the top of the order for SRH, they did not wait much before unleashing their prowess. While they smashed eight runs from the opening over, Abhishek Sharma was seen getting to his beast mode off Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s over.

Smashing the Indian pacer for a boundary on the fourth delivery, Abhishek Sharma unleashed his next ball of the over for a maximum over deep mid-wicket. Bhuvi, as he is fondly called, bowled a short of a length around off to the young Indian opener. The SRH opener then stood tall and thumped it over deep mid-wicket for a six.
However, the ball was showed to hit the car, but a few balls later, as the cameraman zoomed towards it, it seemed to have done some damage to the vehicle. The video then showed the windshield of the car cracked up, making it first such instance in the ongoing edition of the tournament.
