Mumbai Indians (MI) faced Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the 5th match of the IPL 2021 in Chennai and were asked to bat first by Eoin Morgan, who won the toss.

MI brought in Quinton de Kock for Chris Lynn, while KKR went in unchanged. De Kock could only manage 2 runs before falling to Varun Chakravarthy. But the impetus to the MI innings was given by Suryakumar Yadav, who slammed a brilliant 56 in 36 balls with 7 fours and 2 sixes, before falling to Shakib Al Hasan.

Surya was in the peak of his form and it exhibited in the shot he hit to bring up his half-century. He got a length ball on his pads from Pat Cummins and Surya moved a bit to offside and carted the ball over mid-wicket onto the Chepauk stadium roof.

This left Hardik Pandya awestruck who just clapped for Surya which his mouth wide open.
