MI vs CSK | Twitter rejoices as Rohit treats Wankhede to trademark majestic pull

no image

Form is temporary, class is permanent, and the love between Rohit Sharma and the Wankhede everlasting. The former Mumbai Indians looked to be at his rhythmic best yet again on Sunday, earmarked by a scintillating pull shot in just the second over.

Mumbai Indians seemed to be cruising to victory after the Chennai Super Kings set them 177 to chase at the Wankhede on Sunday. The confidence largely came courtesy of the bat of Rohit Sharma, who produced ome of his trademark powerplay bursts at the top of the order enroute to his first fifty of the season. While the knock featured multiple sixes and boundaries, the highlight came in the second over itself when he dispatched Jamie Overton with interest.

The Englishman erred ever so slightly to go short, and it was enough for the former MI captain to rock onto the backfoot and send the ball sailing over square leg.

Needless to say, Twitterati was in awe.
