IPL 2021: Happier With My Two Wickets Than The 87-Run Knock Says Kieron Pollard

Mumbai Indians (MI) batsman Kieron Pollard said that the unbeaten 87 he scored against arch-rivals Chennai Super Kings (CSK) "has to be somewhere near the top" among the scores of match-winning knocks

Asked if he was counting the number of sixes he kept on scoring, the West Indian said, "No I didn't. Actually, I was just watching the scoreboard, knowing that I had to hit sixes in order to win the game."

Pollard, who struck the fastest fifty in this edition of the IPL, taking just 17 balls, said that as a cricketer, they are used to playing such knocks. "As a cricketer, you have to evolve and teams come up with different plans and you play around the world and you see different things they use.

Playing international cricket as well has helped in terms of a confidence perspective," said the big hitter who had a strike rate of nearly 256 on Saturday.
