Ishan Kishan, Mumbai Indians’ wicket-keeper, displayed sharp game awareness. He assisted in dismissing Chennai Super Kings’ opener Rachin Ravindra. The incident occurred during the IPL 2024 match between the fierce rivals. It took place on April 14, Sunday, at Wankhede Stadium.
Ravindra had just hit Shreyas Gopal for six and appeared to be getting into the rhythm. He then attempted to cut a broader delivery with the wrist spinner behind square. As soon as Ishan Kishan received the ball, he stepped up for an appeal with no help from his teammates.
However, Ishan Kishan pushed Hardik Pandya to go for the review because he believed he had heard a knick. Hardik trusted his wicketkeeper and went for a review. According to the DRS replays, the ball struck Rachin Ravindra’s bat on the under edge.
As soon as the Ultra Edge revealed the spike, the MI fielders gathered around Ishan Kishan in a frenzy. Here’s a video:
Rachin stared at the underside of his bat in bewilderment as he began his trip back to the pavilion. The southpaw was forming a solid relationship with his skipper, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and this was yet another vital wicket for Mumbai Indians.
MI need to keep chipping away with wickets
Gaikwad has been joined at the crease by Shivam Dube, and their combination might be critical to CSK’s chances of scoring a high total. Dube has been in amazing form, hitting three boundaries in an over off Hardik Pandya.
Gaikwad’s scoring has slowed after a strong start, and he will need to lift the ante from there. MI will understand how important it is to maintain picking up wickets, particularly Dube’s, because runs can come quickly once a partnership gets established.
