Netizens reacted with memes after Jasprit Bumrah's first super over loss after RCB-MI thriller
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) defeated Mumbai Indians (MI) in an electrifying super over thriller in the 13th edition of the Indian Premier Leauge (IPL) on Monday (September 28). With this win, RCB registered their second win of the IPL 2020.
In the Super Over, Mumbai Indians managed to post 7 runs with the loss of 1 wicket by the duo of Kohli and de Villiers chased that down with ease to register a crucial win for RCB at the Dubai International Stadium.
This was also the first time that pacer Jasprit Bumrah lost a match while bowling a super over.
In chase of a target score of 202, Mumbai got off to an awful start as skipper Rohit Sharma departed early for just 8 runs as Washington Sunder struck for RCB.
Isuru Udana then marked his debut with the wicket of Suryakumar Yadav, who departed for a duck. Yuzvendra Chahal was next to bag a wicket as he dismissed Quinton de Kock for 14, reducing MI to 39/4.
Hardik Pandya didn't have the best of games either as he also gave up his wicket to the other RCB debutant, Adam Zampa.
However, young batter Ishan Kishan formed an explosive partnership with Kieran Pollard to propel Mumbai back on the target chase.
Ishan, who was named into the MI side as Saurabh Tiwary's replacement, bagged a 39-ball half-century and played some exquisite shots on his way. His partner Pollard also brought up his 20-ball 50 next as MI went into the final over of the game needing 19 runs to win.
Krishna's fighting innings came to an end with RCB just 5 runs away from victory as Udana dismissed the Indian batter on 99. However, Pollard (60*) squeezed out a boundary off the final ball of the over to send the match into a super over.
