Chennai Super Kings all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja became the first player with at least 100 catches, 1,000 runs and 100 wickets in the Indian Premier League (IPL) during their seven-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders on Monday.
Former Mumbai Indians (MI) skipper Rohit Sharma leap-frogged Kieron Pollard's long-standing record for most sixes for the Mumbai-based franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Rohit achieved the remarkable feat during Mumbai Indians' clash against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the 33rd match of the IPL 2024 at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium on Thursday. The 36-year-old faced 25 balls against PBKS and scored 36 runs at a strike rate of 144. He slammed 2 fours and 3 overhead boundaries during his time on the crease. Currently, Rohit has smashed 224 sixes for MI in the T20 tournament. Pollard holds the second place on the list with 223 sixes.
India and Mumbai Indians (MI) star batter Rohit Sharma became the first Indian to smash 500 sixes in T20 cricket. The 'Hitman' achieved this milestone during his side's Indian Premier League (IPL) match against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at Wankhede Stadium. Rohit was at his vintage best in the match, scoring 105* in 63 balls. His knock was studded with 11 boundaries and five sixes. Amid the fall of wickets around him, the former Mumbai Indians skipper held the fort at one end, blazing away at a strike rate of 166.67. (IPL 2024 Points Table)
Mumbai Indians batting coach Kieron Pollard is "sick and fed up" of people pinpointing particular individuals for the team's losses as he urged fans not to "nitpick" struggling captain Hardik Pandya after MI lost to Chennai Super Kings by 20 runs in their Indian Premier League match. CSK legend MS Dhoni took 26 runs off Pandya's final over with the help of three consecutive sixes as the MI skipper struggled for right line and length while also bowling two wides at a crucial time.

Mumbai Indians coach Kieron Pollard was once again made to defend the franchise's skipper Hardik Pandya in the post-match press conference. MI suffered yet another defeat this season as Chennai Super Kings rode on MS Dhoni's late blitz and Matheesha Pathirana's clinical bowling to secure a 20-run win on Sunday. Hardik, who returned to bowling in the match, conceded 43 runs in 3 overs while scoring just 2 runs of 6 balls with the bat. His captaincy in the game also left much to be desired, drawing fans and pundits' ire. But, Pollard continues to defence 'hard working and confident' guy, Hardik. (IPL 2024 Points Table)
During the 25th clash of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan equalled his own record of scoring the fastest fifty for the five-time champions. Fiery half-centuries by Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar and a five-wicket haul by Jasprit Bumrah helped MI seal a comprehensive seven-wicket win against RCB in the ongoing IPL 2024 at Wankhede Stadium on Thursday. In the encounter against the Faf Du Plessis-led side, Kishan went on to score the fifty in just 16 balls. The left-hand batter played a knock 69 runs from just 34 balls at a strike rate of 202.94 which was laced with seven boundaries and five maximums. He previously achieved the same feat in IPL 2021 against SunRisers Hyderabad.
Chennai Super Kings all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja produced a match-winning show against Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. The all-rounder bagged three important wickets for the Super Kings, earning them their third victory of the season. But, other than the ball, Jadeja also did wonders in the field and joined the elite company of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in the list of players for 100 or more catches in the IPL history. Only four players in the history of the game, other than Jadeja, have managed to reach this milestone.
The Mumbai Indians registered their first win of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 campaign, beating the Delhi Capitals by 33 runs at Wankhede on Sunday. While it was Hardik Pandya's first win as the captain of the Mumbai franchise, it was his predecessor Rohit Sharma who laid the foundation for the result with a brilliant 27-ball 49. Though Rohit missed out on a half-century, he received a special award in the Mumbai Indians dressing room by coach Mark Boucher for his pivotal knock.
