Mumbai Indians (MI) veteran cricketer Kieron Pollard has always been an athletic fielder for them. There have been occasions when his fielding has pulled games in MI's favor. One such beauty was seen today when Pollard literally jumped like a Kangaroo on boundary line to dismiss Suresh Raina of Chennai Super Kings (CSK).
Raina was looking set to play a big innings for CSK but something extraordinary happened. It was Pollard who did the unthinkable by plucking the ball from the air with ease. It was actually effortless from the big guy.
Already having hit Jason Behrendorff for a couple of fours in 5th over, Raina tried to go for another big hit on the off side. He almost beat the sweeper cover, but not really. Keeping the eyes on the ball till last moment helped Pollard send Raina back on 16 (15).
Here is the video:
A chase which was already dented by Mumbai Indians (MI) pacers by dismissing CSK openers Ambati Rayudu and Shane Watson cheaply, they got the wicket of their main danger man Raina to build some more pressure.
The catch received applause from cricket experts and fans on social media.
