Ravi Shastri on Rishabh Pant’s judgemental error against MI

Ravi Shastri on Rishabh Pant’s judgemental error against MI. Pant’s decision not to go for the DRS against Tim David perplexed Ravi Shastri.

The defeat of the Delhi Capitals against the struggling Mumbai Indians. Allowed Royal Challengers Bangalore to sneak into the IPL 2022 playoffs. The Capitals have only themselves to blame, as skipper Rishabh Pant chose not to review Tim David’s not-out after seemingly edging the ball to the keeper. Pant’s decision surprised everyone, but what happened next was predictable: David clobbered his way to 34 off 11 balls.

Ravi Shastri on Rishabh Pant’s judgemental error “No-Brainer”

“What does common sense require?” Okay, so there’s Rishabh Pant and Shardul Thakur, but what about the others? Common sense dictates that you have five overs left, two reviews. Tim David has just come in, you’ve taken a wicket, and you have a great chance of quickly taking two wickets. There are still five overs to go. And you had the advantage, so you had to take it,” Shastri said on Star Sports after the match, before adding, “it’s a no-brainer.”

“This is a difficult pill to swallow. It’s as if a balloon burst above them. They’ll be up all night worrying about this one because it’s a spot in the playoffs that you’ve missed out on,” he added.

RCB’s paradise is DC’s crucible.

After winning the toss, the Mumbai Indians elected to bowl first. The five-time champions had DC on the ropes after 8.4 overs, with Jasprit Bumrah (3/25) looking imperious. Rovman Powell and Rishabh Pant, on the other hand, rescued their innings with a 75-run stand off 44 balls. Axar Patel finished the game with an unbeaten 19 off ten deliveries.

MI didn’t get off to the best of starts while chasing a target of 160 runs, as Khaleel Ahmed bowled a fiery opening spell against Rohit Sharma. Rohit’s miserable stay at the crease came to an end after he scored just two runs in 13 balls. After that, Ishan Kishan and Dewald Brevis added 51 runs off 37 balls. MI was reduced to 95/3 in the 15th over after Kishan and Brevis were dismissed.

After that, it was all Tim David as he smashed the DC bowlers for four sixes and two boundaries in his 11-ball stay at the crease. MI won thanks to David’s blitz, and Ramandeep Singh led his team home with five balls to spare.

“They have only themselves to blame, nothing else. No excuses, you can’t hide behind anything, you lost it, more than Mumbai Indians winning it. “You didn’t deserve to qualify, but RCB did,” said Ravi Shastri after the game. With the defeat of the Delhi Capitals, Royal Challengers Bangalore joined Gujarat Titans, Rajasthan Royals, and Lucknow Super Giants in the playoffs.
