Sunrisers Hyderabad climbed to the top of the IPL standings after their one-sided victory over Mumbai Indians on Sunday, and team mentor VVS Laxman was in a humourous mood after the match.
Ashish Nehra was at the top of his game, his 3 wickets for 15 in 3 overs being instrumental in pegging back MI. The defending champions capitulated for 98, succumbing to defeat by 77 runs.
However, as Laxman showed, who is also Nehra’s former India teammate, Nehra’s preparation for the match is not what would be expected.
Laxman tweeted a picture of Nehra taking a nap, saying, “Pre match preparation of Nehra Ji before his match winning performance against MI”.
Whatever plan Nehra was strategising at this moment, it worked.
