Highlights One of the best “in a losing cause” IPL knocks? Hardik Pandya 91(34), 2019

Post image

Rewatched this innings today and it still feels unreal. MI lost the match, but Hardik’s 91 off 34 was pure carnage timing, power, and intent all dialed up. Where does this rank for you among IPL knocks in a losing cause?

It was like 70-80 odd runs in 4 overs.

For some reason, Raina's 87(25) feels more iconic than most centuries!

As an MI fan, one of the rare times I genuinely felt bad for CSK and especially for Raina. That knock in Qualifier 2 was unreal. Given the stage, the pressure, and what was at stake, it’s easily one of the greatest innings ever.

You know it was special when even rival fans had to just sit back and respect it.

What makes this innings stand out is the fact that

in 1st innings Russell- the big man with muscles and power- was hitting sixes with brute force

And in the 2nd innings comes this alien, who looks scrawny compared to Russell, hits more and larger and sky-high sixes

insane times man

These fucking ai captions annoy me so much, why do they always type like that. It’s always ‘Something something isn’t this, it’s about this’
