Sunrisers Hyderabad, Kavya Maran: After the tremendous success of Dhurandhar, now Dhurandhar 2 is coming to create a stir at the box office. This film will be released on March 19, after which exactly 9 days i.e. on March 28, Kavya Maran’s Dhurandhar 2 will be seen in IPL 2026. This is not a film. Rather, it is related to the top 2 batsmen in the world playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Both of them are part of Kavya Maran’s team in IPL 2026. In such a situation, when SRH will play the opening match of IPL 2026 against RCB on March 28, powerful action from both of them will be seen. After all, that is what both of them are known for.
Know everything about Kavya Maran’s ‘Dhurandhar 2’?
Now the question is who are those two followers of Kavya Maran? One of them is Abhishek Sharma, who is the world number 1 batsman in the ICC T20I rankings with 875 rating points. The other one is Ishan Kishan, who is the world’s second T20I batsman in the ICC rankings with 871 rating points. We have already seen how these two stalwarts of T20 cricket unravel the thread of the opposing bowlers in the final of the T20 World Cup 2026 and both of them are already expert players in the IPL. This means that Kavya Maran’s Dhurandhar 2 is as sure to be a super hit as it is at the box office.
This is how an amazing explosion was done in 45 days
The story of Ishaan Kishan, one of the two greats of Kavya Maaran, is very interesting. Especially with what has happened to him in recent times. No one thought that he would play in the T20 World Cup 2026. Till January 25, he was not even in the top 100 in the ICC T20I rankings. He was out of the list of 100 players of the world. But, in the ICC rankings which came on exactly the 45th day i.e. on March 11, Ishan Kishan became the world’s second number batsman in the T20I rankings. All this became possible because of his amazing performance in the T20 World Cup 2026, where he scored 317 runs with 3 half-centuries.
