During an IPL 2025 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Sunrisers Hyderabad at Ekana Stadium, opener Abhishek Sharma's powerful six resulted in a shattered windshield of a display SUV car, triggering a pre-season initiative which sees Rs 5 lakh worth of cricket kits being donated by the car brand.
The incident occurred in SRH's innings when Sharma executed a pull shot on a short-of-length delivery, sending the ball over deep midwicket. The shot not only cleared the boundary but also broke the windshield of the display car positioned beyond the rope, drawing immediate attention from everyone present at the ground.

The financial consequence stems from a partnership between IPL and the car manufacturer, who introduced a special initiative at the start of the season. Under this arrangement, cricket equipment worth Rs 5 lakh is distributed to promote cricket in rural areas if the glass is shattered.
The funds from Sharma's incident will be utilised to provide cricket equipment to underserved regions, creating better opportunities for aspiring cricketers to pursue the sport.
The match itself saw an impressive batting display from Sunrisers Hyderabad, who posted a formidable total of 231 runs. Ishan Kishan led the scoring with an unbeaten 94 off 48 balls, demonstrating both precision and aggressive intent throughout his innings.
