IPL2024: Mumbai Indians flopped miserably in IPL 2024. This season the team has played 11 matches so far and won only 3. They were defeated by Kolkata Knight Riders in the last match. Former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan has reacted to this match. Irfan told how Mumbai had to face defeat due to Hardik Pandya’s wrong decision. He says that Mumbai was a good team. But it was not managed properly.
Actually Irfan has shared a video on his official Instagram account. In this he said, “Mumbai Indians were a very good team on paper. But it was not managed. The questions being raised on Hardik Pandya’s captaincy were absolutely right. Because when you dropped 5 wickets against KKR at the score of 57 runs, then there was no need to give 3 consecutive overs to Naman Dheer. You had to bring key bowlers. You made your sixth bowler bowl 3 overs, a partnership was formed here.
Mumbai Indians Choked once again
In this match, Kolkata batted first and scored 169 runs. Mumbai got the target of 170 runs to win. During this, Venkatesh Iyer scored 70 runs in 52 balls. He hit 6 fours and 3 sixes. Manish Pandey played an inning of 42 runs. In response, Mumbai team was all out after scoring 145 runs. The important thing is that his players could not even play the full 20 overs. KKR all out Mumbai in 18.5 overs.
