Twitter Lauds Kieron Pollard’s Blistering 83 Off 31 Balls Against KXIP, Calls Its One Of The Best In IPL

Yesterday, Mumbai Indians hosted Kings XI Punjab at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. With skipper Rohit Sharma being rested due to some injury scare, it was always going to be a massive task for MI to win the match, especially against KXIP which has so many powerful in-form batsmen like Chris Gayle and KL Rahul.

However, big man Kieron Pollard had a totally different thing in his mind, as he took responsibility and rose to the occasion. West Indian played a scintillating knock scoring 83 runs in just 31 balls. He smashed all KXIP bowlers all around the corner. His crazy innings helped MI defeat KXIP by 3 wickets.

In the massive chase by MI, Kieron Pollard created a new record for himself. Mumbai Indians needed 133 runs off last 10 overs and the team achieved it in last ball finish. It was the first instance that a team scored anything more than 126 runs in the second half of the innings and won the match.
