Notably, Ishan has been out of the playing XI due to his poor show in recent times. Although he was devasted after the RCB loss, Virat Kohli was seen consoling him and speaking to him as well. And recently, while there was a meeting going on in the dressing room, he met the batting legend and was seen smiling. He acted like a little kid in front of the legend. Meanwhile, many of the players in the dressing room burst out into laughter. Even Sachin too was seen smiling seeing Ishan Kishan.

After their last win, Rohit Sharma said: “We do agree that we didn’t play to our potential, but it’s a long tournament and we need to stick to our plans and reading the situations is very important and we can take a lot of confidence from that. Important not to lose the guard. The way he (Hardik) understood the situation was very crucial from a team’s perspective, it’s important for him to spend the time in the middle as he’s coming back from a injury. It’s a tough call (on dropping Ishan Kishan) and he seems very confident and the reply you get from him was very boosting as well.”

He continued: “Saurabh has played the perfect role today and he’s done well to nudge around in the middle overs. We are gonna back him (Ishan Kishan) as he’s a very important player for us. The ball was coming off when we started off and the grass is coming off the surface in the middle overs and we need to adjust to the conditions. He (Pollard) is one of our key players. Crucuial part of MI for so many years. He will be happy with taking the ‘Man of the Match’ for his bowling performance.”
