In Saturday’s doubleheader, Mumbai Indians (MI) are hosting Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Match 31 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 at Wankhede Stadium.
The hosts won the toss and elected to bowl first. PBKS opener Prabhsimran Singh took the innings off to a flyer and quickly scored 26 from just 17 balls, including 2 sixes and a four. As Prabhsimran was looking to cruise further and accelerate more, MI pacer Arjun Tendulkar bowled a beauty to get rid of Punjab’s opener.
It all happened during the seventh over when Tendulkar went for a toe-crushing yorker. Prabhsimran failed to bring his bat down in time, resulting in the ball hitting his back boot. Ball-tracking indicated that the impact of the ball was in front of the middle, and it was heading straight towards the base of the middle stump.

Arjun, however, had a terrible outing otherwise, as he ended up conceding 48 runs in 3 overs, including an expensive over where he gave up 31 runs. Not just Arjun, the Punjab batters took other MI bowlers to the cleaners as well as the Sam Curran-led side went on to post a massive total of 214/8 in their allotted 20 overs.
Captain Curran led from the front and smacked 55 from just 29 balls, including 5 fours and 4 sixes. Similarly, Harpreet Singh scored a quickfire 28-ball 41 with the help of 4 fours and 2 maximums. Jitesh Sharma played a jaw-dropping cameo of 25 from just 7 deliveries, including 4 humungous sixes.
