Rohit Sharma, on Sunday (May 21), led Mumbai Indians to a huge win over Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Wankhede Stadium. The 5-time IPL champions needed to win the game at any cost to keep alive their playoff hopes and they turned up in style.
Sunrisers Hyderabad threatened to spoil the party after the fifties from Vivrant Sharma and Mayank Agarwal propelled them to a huge total of 200 for 5 in the allotted 20 overs. However, Rohit Sharma led from the very front and helped Mumbai Indians inflict an 8-wicket defeat on the Hyderabad-based outfit.
Cameron Green was the star of the show, scoring his maiden IPL ton to help Mumbai Indians chase down the big total in just 18 overs. The Australian allrounder remained unbeaten on 100 off 47 balls with the help of 8 fours and as many sixes. Rohit Sharma also played a crucial knock. The Mumbai Indians skipper roared back to form just in time and scored 56 runs to lay the foundation for the successful chase.
Rohit Sharma’s hilarious incident:
During the match between Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad, a hilarious incident involving Rohit Sharma took place. It happened during a drinks break while Rohit and Cameron Green were batting. The star batsman hilariously tried taking a swig of drink before realizing he was trying to drink from a bottle with a closed lid.
Rohit Sharma was busy talking to his teammates during the break before deciding to have the drink. As he was talking to one of his teammates, he went to take a sip of the drink only to see the closed lid hitting his lips. Rohit quickly realized his mistake and opened the lid before having the drink.
Here is a clip of the incident:
