However, his timing faltered, sending the ball soaring into the air. Suryakumar Yadav, positioned deep on the field, sprinted towards the trajectory and executed a flawless sliding catch, ensuring a vital wicket for MI.

Rohit Sharma’s gesture of appreciation

After completing the catch, Rohit approached Hardik with a warm gesture, applauding his crucial contribution and offering a reassuring pat on the back. It was a moment of camaraderie and acknowledgment of Hardik’s valuable performance in the match.
