WATCH: Rohit Sharma Dispatches A Six Straight Into Mumbai Indians Dugout
MI vs SRH IPL 2022: In the 65th match of IPL 2022, Rohit Sharma displayed vintage 'hitman' but nonetheless, failed to convert yet another start into a big score. Chasing a target of 194 against Hyderabad, Mumbai openers Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan gave their team an explosive start and etched a partnership of 95 runs for the first wicket.
During this, Rohit Sharma played a good knock of 48 runs in 36 deliveries. Rohit smacked 2 fours and 4 sixes in his inning.
The most adorable six out of these four was the one he smacked against Bhuvneshwar Kumar when the Mumbai Indians skipper cleared long-on without moving an inch for a six. This six by Rohit went straight into the Mumbai Indians' dugout.
However, the hitman failed to convert a good start into a big score in this season of the IPL. Rohit was caught in the 11th over by SRH substitute fielder J Suchith as Washington Sundar registered the Indian skipper's wicket.
