IPL 2018, MI vs KXIP: 3 Best decisions from the game between Mumbai Indians and Kings XI Punjab

#2 Keeping mid-on up for Rohit Sharma

Sharma's wicket was a vital one for Punjab

One hardly gets to see attacking captaincy these days in T20s as captains are more eager to save runs rather than go for wickets.

Fields are spread out as soon as the mandatory powerplay overs are done with. With the match firmly in the balance, Ashwin gave the ball to Ankit Rajpoot.

In a bold move, Ashwin kept the mid-on up, inviting Rohit Sharma to go over the top. The move worked wonders as Rohit Sharma mistimed his pull and spooned an easy catch to Yuvraj Singh fielding at mid-on. It was a big moment in the game as Rohit is a class batsman and could have hurt Punjab later on in the match.
