Mumbai Indians (MI) brutally trolled Delhi Capitals (DC) after the latter's loss against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on April 20. Notably, SRH posted their third 250+ total of the season - 266/7 - against Delhi after doing it against the MI and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) earlier in the tournament.
After the SRH innings, DC, from its official X social media handle, tagged SRH handle and asked 'what did their batters eat in breakfast?' In reply, MI posted a GIF of a famous catchphrase 'Aa Gaya Swad (Got the taste)' of known stand up comedian Abhishek Upmanyu. Have a look at the post below:
SRH have won each time after posting a total in excess of 250 this season despite going for runs in the second innings. They conceded 246 against Mumbai Indians (target: 278), 262 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (target: 288) and 199 against Delhi Capitals.

It all started after their openers posted highest ever powerplay score in all T20s. SRH posted 125/0 in the first six overs, taking all Delhi Capitals bowlers to the cleaners.
Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma both were on fire with Head reaching his fifty of just 16 balls - joint fastest for SRH along with Abhishek Sharma who achieved the feat a few days back.
Abhishek then took on Kuldeep in the fifth over of the innings, hitting him for three sixes as he reached 40 off just 10 balls as SRH crossed 100 in the same over.
By the time powerplay was done, SRH had posted highest powerplay score ever with Head batting on 84 off just 26 balls and Abhishek on 40. Hyderabadalso hit 13 fours and 11 sixes in first 36 balls which translates to four balls going either for four or six every over.
