Today in Chennai as SRH is facing off defending champions MI in a crucial face-off, SRH is trying to bring to halt its early slide towards back-to-back defeats.
Hyderabad is well-aware of its difficulties in chasing big scores at MA Chidambaram stadium so its only hope has been to choke the defending champions of runs with their bowling attack which could increase their chances of bowling.
Its dream to reduce Mumbai to a very low number of runs which could have made the chase easier for Hyderabad has been washed out by Kieron Pollard’s 35 runs in 22 balls which bailed Mumbai out of a desperate situation and helped it settle a decent target of 151 runs for Hyderabad to chase.
Pollard also smashed the longest six of IPL 2021. The ball left MA Chidambaram stadium in the blink of an eye. The length of the six was 105 meters.
