In a dramatic turn of events in the ongoing MI vs SRH match in Hyderabad, Tilak Varma's departure marks a crucial moment in the game. The young batter, who seemed to be anchoring the innings for Sunrisers Hyderabad, fell victim to an expertly executed delivery by Pat Cummins, the captain of Mumbai Indians.

Watch the video here:


It was the 14th over when Cummins delivered a slower ball outside the off-stump. Varma, who was well-set at the crease, attempted a big shot but lost his balance in the process, resulting in a mistimed aerial shot towards wide long-on. 

Mayank Agarwal, stationed there, managed to settle under the ball and completed a crucial catch, sending Varma back to the pavilion after a commendable innings. This was the second time Cummins struck with luck, as he sent back Rohit Sharma too. This wicket comes at a crucial juncture in the match, with Mumbai Indians facing a daunting task of chasing down the target set by Sunrisers Hyderabad.

As of now, Mumbai finds themselves in deep trouble, needing 79 runs off just 21 balls. The loss of Varma's wicket has undoubtedly tilted the scales in favor of Mumbai Indians, who will be looking to capitalize on this breakthrough and build momentum in their chase. With Tim David and captain Pandya at the crease, the pressure is on them to deliver a remarkable performance if they are to steer their team towards victory.
