MI was just 41/2 when SKY and Tilak Verma toon control over ta match and turned it around. While chasing in the 8th over of the match, Yuzi came into the attack. He bowled a delivery in line of middle stump turning away from Suryakumar on the last ball. SKY tried to sweep it but missed. The ball hit the pads and the bowler made a loud appeal but got rejected by the on field umpire. RR reviewed the ball and saw the ball was hitting the top of off the stump. SKY later scored 51 off 39 balls.
Chahal was seen dejected by the decision of the umpire while the right hander was seen consoling him with a hug. The match ended in favour of MI, resulting in MI ‘s first win of the season. MI beat RR by 5 wickets and 4 balls left.
