Despite losing wickets from the other end in regular intervals, Suryakumar Yadav single-handedly kept Mumbai Indians in the game during their IPL 2024 clash against KKR on Friday (May 3) at Wankhede Stadium. 

However, he did not last long, as a half-fit Andre Russell got the most important wicket during the intense chase by the five-time champions.

The wicket came during the 16th over of MI's innings, when SKY tried to whip Russell away in an attempt for a six. The timing, although, was not there, leaving the ball go high in the air without getting much distance.

Running from the wicket-keeping area, Phil Salt took an excellent catch while going to towards the fine leg.
