In yesterday’s game, Mumbai Indians (MI) locked horn with Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) where KL Rahul smashed a blistering century. But his century went in vain as Keiron Pollard’s match-winning stormy 83 off 31 guided Mumbai to another win. However, KXIP bowler Ankit Rajpoot winked at Keiron Pollard during his bowling at Wankhede between MI and KXIP game. He was one of the expensive bowlers of yesterday, conceding 52 runs in his 4 overs while taking only one wicket. It was not only Pollard’s breathtaking show which attracts everyone but also Ankit Rajpoot’s wink as well. Everyone started comparing his wink with famous Priya Prakash Varrier’s wink from her movie.

And this one is for Ankit Rajpoot.
Lesson to learn: don't wink, until you have secured the win 😉

“I would like to thank God. Need to thank him for giving strength to me for doing the things that I do. Also, love to thank my wife, it’s her birthday today and I want to dedicate this to her. I went up the order because I enjoy batting at Wankhede. Plan was to attack Ashwin as spin wasn’t doing great,” Pollard said at the post-match presentation after his heroic knock which eventually helped him getting the Man of the Match award.
