“Unlucky Ishan Kishan” – Fans troll Mumbai Indians opener as he gets out in bizarre fashion

Ishan Kishan

Ishan Kishan, Mumbai Indians’ opener is probably the unluckiest cricketer on this planet right now. The way he was dismissed while playing against Lucknow Super Giants will justify the statement. Mumbai Indians are playing their match against Lucknow Super Giants at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday, April 24.

Chasing a target of 169 runs, MI top order batters again struggled just like in their previous games. Even though Rohit Sharma would get some runs under the belt, he slowly scored 39 off 31 balls by hitting boundaries here and there. But for MI’s another opener Ishan Kishan, the story remained the same.

Ishan Kishan was looking for some loose balls. But for him, it’s unfortunate the way he was dismissed. This happened in the 8th over. Leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi bowled a googly and the ball hit the bottom edge of the bat and fell onto the hands of Jason Holder at slips.

Ishan Kishan even started walking before the bowler asking for the wicket. Ishan Kishan keeps faltering after two half-centuries to start IPL 2022.
