Rohit Sharma's outing against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at his beloved Eden Gardens wasn't a one to remember for the legendary Mumbai Indians (MI) batters. His struggles during a 24-ball 19 were more than evident, however, he did play one class of a shot for a six.
In the 3rd over of the chase, Rohit timed a pull stroke off a waist-high delivery delivered by KKR upcoming quick, Vaibhav Arora. As the MI batter dispatched the ball into the stands for a maximum, he asked the umpires for a no-ball; but the third umpire's decision went in KKR's favour.

Rohit Sharma may have been the second batter to fall during MI's chase, but his dismissal did initiate a collapse. The openers shared a 65-run stand for the first wicket, but they lost the next four men within the next 32 runs.
At the time of publishing, MI is reeling in the chase with the scorecard reading 118-6 after 14 overs.
