On the second ball of the over, Mustafizur bowled a 132.4 kmph delivery with a scrambled seam that was full and angled away from outside the off-stump. Rohit tried to hit it hard over mid-on but got a thick outside edge instead. The ball flew to wicketkeeper Abishek Porel, who dived to his right and took a brilliant catch with both hands. Rohit was out after scoring just 5 runs from 5 balls.

Rohit has a tough record against Mustafizur in T20s. In 12 innings, he has scored only 122 runs at an average of 30.50 and a strike rate of 167.12, getting out to him 4 times.

Since IPL 2024, Rohit Sharma has struggled against left-arm pacers in the powerplay, scoring 150 runs off 95 balls at an average of 18.75 and a strike rate of 157.89, with 8 dismissals.
