What Makes the Lamborghini Urus Unique?

The Lamborghini Urus, a luxury SUV launched in 2017, is available in two variants: Performante and SE. Both models are powered by a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine. The Performante can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds and produces 850Nm of torque, while the hybrid SE variant boasts an impressive 950Nm of torque. Prices in India start at around Rs 4.18 crore, reaching over Rs 5 crore depending on the state.

Thanks to the Dream11 contest and Rohit's promise, the winner did not have to pay for this extravagant vehicle. Additionally, the car's unique number plate, 264, pays homage to Rohit's record ODI score.

Rohit Sharma's Historic ODI Record

In 2014, Rohit Sharma made history by scoring 264 runs in an ODI match against Sri Lanka at Eden Gardens, a record that still stands. His innings included 33 fours and 9 sixes, marking his second double century, following his 209 against Australia in Bengaluru. He achieved a third double century in 2017, remaining unbeaten at 208* against Sri Lanka in Mohali, making him the only player with three double centuries in ODI cricket.

Mumbai Indians' Playoff Hopes

Despite a rocky start to the season, the Mumbai Indians have bounced back impressively. Under the leadership of Hardik Pandya, they currently sit fourth in the IPL 2025 standings. With Gujarat Titans, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and Punjab Kings already securing playoff spots, the competition is fierce between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals for the final playoff position. A victory against DC on May 21 would guarantee MI's place in the playoffs.
