Words that inspired the unbelievable show of the PBKS youngster against Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024
There are different stages during the match between Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings when it looks like the Punjab Kings are beaten as they lost four wickets on 14 runs and 5 wickets on 49 runs. Even after this there poor performance continues as the lost 6 wickets on 77 runs and then 7 wickets on 111 runs but every time it looks like they have beaten they used to keep coming back firstly with the mini partnership between Harpreet Singh Bhatia and Shashank Singh after this through Shashank and Ashutosh Sharma but the partnership that scared Mumbai Indians was between Ashutosh and HarpreetBrar.
Ashutosh Sharma smashed 61 runs in 28 balls which consisted of 7 sixes. But later on in the end Punjab Kings fell short of 9 runs on Thursday at the PCA stadium in Mullanpur.
In the post match press conference Ashutosh told the reporters that the celebration was for Sanjay Bangar sir as he is working a lot under him and he keeps on guiding him. Ashutosh further said that Sanjay has given him a chance and he also wanted to thank the team Punjab kings for showing their trust in him.
Ashutosh also gives credit to the former all rounder of the Indian cricket team for telling him that he is not a slogger and he should play some proper cricket shots.
He added Sanjay sir has taught him that he is not a slogan and that he should play proper cricket shots and need to focus properly on that. This small statement from Sanjay has become a big one for him as the statement has changed his name and he played all the cricketing shots in the game.
