The Mumbai Indians have faced yet another batting collapse as they have lost 4 wickets in the powerplay. Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton were in decent touch going into the game but this time they have failed to make an impact on the scoreboard. The poor form of Suryakumar Yadav continues as he simply hasn’t been able to get going this season. He looked good initially but he ended up chopping the ball back onto the stumps off the bowling of Saurabh Dubey.

The bowling of the Kolkata Knight Riders have been simply extraordinary with Cameron Green leading the pace attack. He started off with the all important wicket of Ryan Rickelton and then proceeded to dismiss Naman Dhir with a beautiful delivery. Saurabh Dubey has been clinical as well as he picked up the big wicket of Rohit Sharma, credit to a brilliant catch by Green and he got rid of Suryakumar Yadav as well. KKR are bossing the game at the moment and they will be confident of limiting the Mumbai Indians to a low total.

Fans on X troll Hardik Pandya after another disastrous batting display by MI against KKR

The viewers on X have been taking hilarious digs at Hardik Pandya claiming that the players don’t want to play under his captaincy. Much of the praise has gone to Cameron Green for his all-rounded efforts and Saurabh Dubey for the big wicket of Rohit Sharma. Here are some of the reactions on X:

Rain has interrupted the match as of now and the Mumbai Indians will probably take some time to reflect on the innings so far and Tilak Varma will look to shoulder the responsibility along with his skipper. KKR will be praying that the rain goes away quickly as they need to secure a victory to stay alive in the playoffs race.
