Bengal all-rounder Shahbaz Ahmed scores a century in thrilling Vijay Hazare Trophy quarter-final match
In a thrilling quarter-final match of the 2023 Vijay Hazare Trophy, Bengal all-rounder Shahbaz Ahmed delivered a stellar performance, scoring a century against Haryana. Shahbaz’s brilliant innings saw him score 100 runs off 118 balls, including four sixes and four fours. His impressive performance helped Bengal post a competitive total of 225 runs in the allotted overs.
When Shahbaz came to the crease, Bengal was struggling at three wickets down. However, the talented all-rounder rose to the challenge and skillfully built up the innings. His remarkable batting prowess was on display, particularly during the last three overs of the innings, where he aggressively increased the score, ultimately completing his century in the final over.
Despite Shahbaz’s outstanding performance, Haryana emerged victorious in their chase, with Ankit Kumar scoring 102 runs off 102 balls to lead his team to a successful chase of 226 runs for the loss of six wickets in 45.1 overs.
Following his impressive century, Shahbaz found himself in the spotlight once again but this time for a different reason. The all-rounder was released by Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) ahead of the 2024 IPL star auction. However, Shahbaz was quickly picked up by Sunrisers Hyderabad in a trade that also saw Mayank Dagar being included in RCB as a replacement.
In another noteworthy development, Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya was recalled by the Mumbai Indians in a trade that preceded the star auction.
Shahbaz’s century and subsequent trade to Sunrisers Hyderabad have generated significant buzz in the cricketing world, and fans are eager to see how the talented all-rounder will fare in the upcoming IPL season.
