Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma's bat that resulted in him having to walk back to the pavilion in Monday's IPL match vs KKR? The KKR players felt there was a genuine edge indeed, but there were very many across the world, who were watching, who felt that Rohit and MI were given a really bad decision, thanks to technology or more specifically the Decision Review System (DRS). WHAT HAPPENEDThis was the last delivery of the first over of the Mumbai run chase. The 5 time champions, who are struggling big time this season and are already out of the playoffs race were jolted early thanks to this rather dubious DRS call. Tim Southee was the bowler and bowled a back of a length ball to Rohit, who was looking at defending the ball and seemed to have missed it. The ball looked like it had missed the bat and then ricocheted off his back leg to the KKR keeper Sheldon Jackson who took a low catch. KKR players appealed, but the on-field umpire gave it not out. Jackson convinced KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer to ask for the DRS review and that's when the real drama began.
Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma was a frustrated man on Monday. After his team restricted Kolkata Knight Riders to 165/9 in 20 overs, a lot was expected of Rohit Sharma -- the batter. However, he could not contribute much. Rohit fell for just two off six balls in the first over of the chase, bowled by KKR pacer Tim Southee. More than the score, it was his dismissal that created a lot of buzz. To add to it, MI lost the game by a massive 52 runs for their ninth loss of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022.
Bumrah's 5/10 in vain as batsmen flopMUMBAI: Jasprit Bumrah bowled one of the finest spells you would have ever seen in the IPL at the DY Patil Stadium on Monday night, but it wasn't enough to lift Mumbai Indians from the mediocrity that they have slipped into in IPL 2022. After Bumrah's devastating 5/10 in four overs of high-class pace bowling restricted Kolkata Knight Riders to 165 for nine in 20 overs, the two-time champions came roaring back into the contest, as Pat Cummins (3/22), Andre Russell (2/22) and Tim Southee (1/10) returned fire with fire to ensure a 52-run win which keeps their team alive in the race for the playoffs. AS IT HAPPENED | SCORECARD | POINTS TABLEWith 10 points (five wins and seven losses), the Knight Riders climbed from the ninth to the seventh spot, with two games to go. Badly missing Suryakumar Yadav, who's out of the rest of the IPL due to a left forearm muscle injury, MI, done and dusted, crashed to 113 all out in just 17.3 overs, losing their last eight wickets for 44 runs in merely 42 balls.
Kolkata Knight Riders finally found the team balance they were looking for to outclass Mumbai Indians by 52 runs in Mavi Mumbai on Monday and keep their slim IPL play-off hopes alive. Lead Mumbai Indians pacer Jasprit Bumrah picked up his maiden five-wicket haul in IPL history to restrict KKR to 165 for nine after fine knocks from Venkatesh Iyer (43 off 24) and Nitish Rana (43 off 24). Barring a 43-ball 51 from Ishan Kishan, Mumbai batters struggled to get going in the chase as their innings ended at 113 all out in 17.3 overs.

As it happened | Scorecard | Points TableBarring a 43-ball 51 from Ishan Kishan, Mumbai batters struggled to get going in the chase as their innings ended at 113 all out in 17.3 overs. KKR finally played Tim Southee (1/10) and Pat Cummins (3/22) together and the move worked with the seasoned pacers sharing four wickets. Andre Russell too chipped in with a couple of wickets. Another big positive was the return to form of Venkatesh Iyer, who had to be dropped earlier in the competition due to his lean run after a sensational debut season in 2021.
