The five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) registered their first win of this year’s Indian Premier League (IPL 2021) campaign that too against Eoin Morgan’s Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).
Even though KKR looked like they were going to chase the target easily, Rahul Chahar picked up some crucial wickets and it all went downhill from there for the chasing side.
MI batsman who was also the top scorer for his side by playing a wonderful knock of 56 runs off just 36 deliveries talked to the left-arm quick Trent Boult who defended 15 runs in the last over as the five-time champions won by 10 runs.

Yadav tested the New Zealander’s Hindi as he asked him how it felt after defending 15 runs in the last over.
To everyone’s surprise, Boult passed this test with flying colors as he responded in Hindi by saying, “Bahut accha (Very good).”
