Chennai Super Kings all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja dedicated his Player of the Match award to daughter Nidhyana on the occasion of Daughters Day. He was the main hero in CSK’s two-wicket victory over Kolkata Knight Riders at Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Zayed Stadium. The left-handed batsman scored 22 runs off 8 balls with the help of two sixes and as many fours. Chasing 172 runs to win, CSK were in control but a flurry of wickets in the last few overs brought KKR back into the contest. Jadeja, who earlier took one wicket and conceded just 21 runs from his four overs, slammed Prasidh Krishna for 6,6,4,4 to leave his team needing 4 off the last over. However, it was not over as Sunil Narine dismissed Jadeja in the final over and it was Deepak Chahar who scored the winning run off the last over to lead CSK to win.
Wifey is always right
Mumbai Indians won the last IPL game against Punjab Kings to secure their first win of the UAE leg. The defending champions had earlier lost three consecutive matches. Jasprit Bumrah took two wickets and it was correctly predicted by his wife Sanjana Ganesan before the match. Punjab scored 135 runs from 20 overs. Chasing 136 runs to win, Mumbai won the match by 6 wickets. Jasprit Bumrah dismissed Pooran and Hooda. In an interaction with Mumbai Indians, Ganesan was asked to predict the number of wickets the pacer would pick in the match. “I would want him to pick 5 wickets but I think he will pick 2 wickets in the match,” she said during the interaction.
