The incident took place during the 15th over of the innings when Spencer Johnson bowled a full delivery aimed at Pollard's pads. The Caribbean star skillfully took advantage of it, striking the ball over cow corner for a six, which unfortunately hit the woman in the stands.

Pollard and Rashid Khan were pivotal in securing MI New York's four-wicket win against the Los Angeles Knight Riders at Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas. Despite the Knight Riders being dismissed for 130, MI New York faced a challenging run chase.

At one point, they were struggling at 91-5, but Pollard's three sixes in the 15th over turned the tide in their favour. Ultimately, Rashid Khan hit the winning runs in the 17th over, allowing MI New York to clinch a spot in the playoffs.
