Mumbai Indians suffered yet another disappointing loss in the Indian Premier League tonight against Lucknow Super Giants. This was their second match of the season against the KL Rahul led the team and for the second successive time, they have tasted defeat against them. Interestingly, KL Rahul hit a century to shatter the hopes of Mumbai Indians in both those matches. This was Mumbai’s 7th match in the Indian Premier League and they have been unable to register a victory in any of their matches so far.
MI won the toss and opted to bowl first in tonight’s match. Despite Rahul’s century, they were able to restrict LSG to a low first innings total of just 168 runs and it seemed as though finally MI were going to register their first win of the season as it was a very achievable target. However, things started falling off when Mumbai Indians started to lose their wickets one after another. Slowly, they lost most their wickets and ended up losing the match after scoring a mere total of 132 runs, losing the match by 36 runs.
Krunal Pandya was undoubtedly LSG’s best performer with the ball in the second innings. He picked up 3 wickets in the match and gave away just 19 runs in his 4 overs at an economy of just 4.75. Despite performing so well though, Krunal Pandya made a scene after the dismissal of Kieron Pollard and he is being criticised for his act all over social media. Lets take a look at what he did after picking up his former teammate Kieron Pollard’s wicket.
