Sharma performed well on Wednesday as the Sunrisers defeated Mumbai Indians at home by seven wickets. His spell was adorned with two key wickets — Sachin Tendulkar and Dinesh Karthik. He also succeeded in restricting the Mumbai Indians batsmen, bowling one maiden over and giving away just 15 runs.

“I assessed the conditions and tried to execute whatever set plan we had for each batsman. I bowled according to my strengths without thinking about the batsmen. I am pleased that we did well as a collective bowling unit,” he said.

Sharma was also ecstatic at taking Tendulkar’s wicket. “When I started playing, I never felt I would someday bowl to Tendulkar. It is a big moment for any bowler to get the wicket of one of the best batsmen. I am pleased I got the wicket of the ‘God of cricket’.”
