WATCH: 'Unreal Rohit Sharma' - MI skipper pulls off heroic fielding efforts to help MI seal Qualifier 2 spot

During the ongoing Eliminator match between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), MI skipper Rohit Sharma revealed a side of his personality that is not often seen on the field. Rohit displayed remarkable reflexes to make a diving save and then contributed with another effort to successfully curate a direct run-out and dismantle the LSG batting lineup.

During LSG's chase, Gowtham played a powerful back-foot shot towards the backward point and Green executed an exceptional diving stop to his right. Positioned at cover, Rohit quickly collected the deflection and swiftly aimed a direct hit at the batting end. Despite Gowtham's diving effort, the ball ricocheted off the practice pitch and caught him significantly short of his crease. Hooda showed no interest in taking the single and even expressed his dissatisfaction with Gowtham's decision. In summary, it was an absolute disaster for LSG with two run-outs occurring in just five balls.

Lucknow Super Giants found themselves under early pressure from Mumbai Indians while chasing a target of 183 runs, as both their openers fell during the powerplay. However, Marcus Stoinis and Krunal Pandya rose to the occasion, stabilizing the innings for LSG after the initial setbacks.

The tide turned when Naveen-ul-Haq, the Afghan pacer, made a significant impact by dismissing both Yadav and Green in the 11th over. Naveen played a crucial role, taking a total of four wickets, while Yash Thakur also contributed with three wickets in the innings.
