Notably, Mumbai Indians broke their bank to buy Ishan Kishan and spent INR 15.25 crores in doing so, but the wicketkeeper-batter has not lived up to the expectation at all this season. However, he had a good day with both the bat and the gloves and was one of MI’s star players in their triumph over GT.

As for his batting, Kishan scored 45 runs from 29 deliveries. However, what was more impressive is his skills behind the wicket as he inflicted two very crucial run-outs. The first incident occurred in the fourth ball of the 18th over when Miller edged the ball which traveled to the 23-year-old youngster. GT skipper Hardik Pandya tried to sneak in a single but Kishan’s accurate throw at the stumps sent him back to the pavilion.

The lad from Patna was lightning quick once again in the third ball of the very last over. Rahul Tewatia pulled the ball towards mid-wicket and completed the first run easily before going for the second. Though the through from the fielder was far from accurate, Kishan did brilliantly to gather it and hit the stumps, running the dangerman out.
After the match, Hardik Pandya himself acknowledged the devasting effect of those run outs on his team as he said “We’ll take 9 runs in the last over on any given day, but the two run-outs didn’t help us. In T20 cricket you can’t keep losing back-to-back wickets, it pushes you back.”
