The focus was more on Kavya Maran during the Mumbai-Sunrisers match. Throughout the match, the camera often panned to her. A fan shared photos related to this on Twitter.
Comments made by Rajinikanth about Kavya Maran are also trending now. He remarked that he couldn’t bear to see Kavya’s distress whenever the Sunrisers lost. He suggested that the team should pick good players for this season.
Kavya Maran’s comments after the victory over Mumbai are also viral. She expressed her happiness over the team scoring over 200 runs in two consecutive matches. Sunrisers fans are trending this video too.
Actually, the Sun Group’s chairman, Kalanithi Maran, is the original owner of the Sunrisers. However, Kavya Maran, being his daughter and interested in cricket, looks after the franchise responsibilities.
Participating in every auction, she plays an active role in buying key players. Despite Sunrisers Hyderabad’s consecutive failures in the past few seasons, Kavya hasn’t been disheartened.
This season, Sunrisers spent over Rs. 20 crores to buy Aussie captain Pat Cummins, who is currently leading the team.
Compared to previous seasons, Sunrisers’ batting appears formidable this time, with players like Travis Head, Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, Abhishek Sharma, and Mayank Agarwal. The bowling, with Pat Cummins, Bhuvneshwar, Jaydev Unadkat, Natarajan, and Mayank Markande, is equally strong.
Fans also say that they have never seen the Sunrisers team this strong before. If the bowlers manage to contain runs in upcoming matches, Sunrisers have a chance to win the cup this time, says fans.
