MI had put up a sturdy total of 151 on the board courtesy of a stunning knock from Suryakumar Yadav. He scored 68 off just 34 balls, including 6 massive hits over the fence.
In response, RCB started off well with a 50-run opening stand. Soon after, Faf du Plessis fell with Virat Kohli walking in to do what he does best – chase down totals with ease.
During the chase, a fan ended up breaching the security and he ran toward Rohit. The MI captain was seen turning back and distancing himself from the fan due to understandable Covid-19 guidelines, He then gave him a virtual hug and then the RCB batsman Virat Kohli was seen appreciating the gesture.
