Rohit was in good touch and showed his class against one of the best bowlers in the world, Kagiso Rabada. On the 5th ball of the 5th over of the MI innings, Kagiso Rabada bowled one ball on the middle stump in the slot and Rohit moved just a bit to the leg and deposited the ball in the stands over long-off for a 95-meter six.
This shot came after Quinton de Kock fell for 1 run to Marcus Stoinis. Rohit made 44 before being caught by Steve Smith off Amit Mishra.
