MI VS RCB Turning point of match: What was the turning point of the match?
Batting first, RCB gave a big target of 196 runs to Mumbai Indians. The opening pair of Mumbai Indians, who came to chase the target, created the mood. Ishan Kishan started the batting with a six in the second over and then created a storm. Ishaan scored 69 runs in 34 balls with the help of 5 sixes and 7 fours. And Rohit scored 38 runs in 24 balls with the help of 3 sixes and 3 fours. There was a partnership of 101 runs between the two openers which made the match one-sided.
Suryakumar, who came after Ishaan’s dismissal, showed special fireworks of fours and sixes to the spectators at Wankhede. After 3 months, Surya showed his form and scored 52 runs in just 19 balls with the help of 4 sixes and 5 fours. After this, Hardik also scored 21 runs in 6 balls with the help of 3 sixes and gave the team victory by hitting the winning six.
But the reason for RCB’s defeat was not the batting of Mumbai Indians but the poor bowling of its own bowlers. No bowler was successful in taking wickets and all were washed out from the line. If the bowlers had taken even one wicket at the right time, perhaps Mumbai Indians would not have played so fearlessly. And even if he had played like this, there would have been more chances of him getting out and RCB being in the match.
