Another unheralded talent makes a point

Hindustan Times Pune

March 26, 2025

In just his second IPL season, Ashutosh Sharma delivered yet another reminder of the league's ability to raise the status of unheralded domestic talent.

- Samreen Razzaqui

NEW DELHI:

Having fallen short in similar situations last season -- against Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians, where he scored 33 off 15 and 61 off 28 respectively -- Ashutosh went one step further this time, smashing a heroic 66 off 31 balls to help his side pull off a thrilling one-wicket heist for Delhi Capitals against Lucknow Super Giants in Vizag last night.

The 26-year-old batter was first noticed last year, courtesy of an IPL innovation -- the Impact Player rule. Punjab Kings used him three times in that role, and he quickly proved why he deserved his reputation as an explosive middle-order batter.

On Monday, he was once again subbed in as an Impact Player, replacing bowler Mukesh Sharma, with DC struggling at 65/5. Half their top order was already back in the dugout and it seemed like the result was inevitable.
