The 19th match of MLC 2024 showcased a moment of sheer brilliance during MI New York and LA Knight Riders. Jason Roy's shot, a mirror image of Virat Kohli's playbook, was a classic that left every viewer in awe. 

In the second over, Trent Boult delivered a length ball right in the slot. Roy, with his impeccable timing and technique, came down the track and lofted it down the ground over the bowler's head. 

The ball soared over the sight screen for a maximum, a shot that not only added crucial runs to the scoreboard but also electrified the atmosphere. The six was so high and far that it almost felt like he replicated Kohli's iconic six during the IND vs PAK 2022 T20 WC clash, which made Harsha Bhogle say the famous 'Kohli goes down the ground,he goes out of the ground'.

Eventually, MI New York managed to put up a total of 130 for the opposition to chase. The Kieron Pollard-led side needed to chase 130 runs in 18.2 overs to qualify for the playoffs, and Dewald Brevis provided a decent start. 

They did lose a couple of wickets however Nicholas Pooran held his fort from one end and attacked the bowlers as a result of which MINY won the game by 4 wickets and sealed their place in the top four. On the other hand, Los Angeles Knight Riders were heartbroken after they were eliminated from the tournament.
