Kieron Pollard is already known for his big-hitting in cricket. The burly West Indian has been an integral part of the Mumbai Indians’ franchise since he was bought in 2010. Since then, Pollard has continued to provide the impetus to the batting unit while bailing them out in crunch situations.
On Friday against Punjab Kings, Kieron Pollard smashes the ball to six and nearly hits the sponsor car. Pollard also smashed the longest six of IPL 2021 against SRH. The distance of the six was 105 meters. Before Pollard, the longest six was hit by Glenn Maxwell (100m).
Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians finish at 131/6. They once again fail to go past the 150-run mark. Exceptional bowling display from Punjab Kings bowlers. Just 26 runs and 4 wickets for them in the final 4 overs.
Under the leadership of KL Rahul, PBKS were off to a promising start to the campaign. But now, they are coming into this contest on the back of three successive defeats, languishing in the bottom half of the table. On the other hand, MI will look to get back to winning ways after failing to beat DC in their last encounter. The Rohit Sharma-led unit would aim to shrug off their middle-order inconsistencies and register their third win of the season. The five-time champions are currently fourth on the points table.
