IPL 2018, MI vs RR: Hits and Misses

#2 Miss: D’Arcy Short

It was another game to forget for S'Arcy Short as he could only make 4 in this game.

D’Arcy Short has had a poor run in his debut season. He’s struggled every time he’s got an opportunity and apart from one innings (where he scored 44 off 25), the 27-year-old Aussie opener barely scored managed to score run-a-ball in the other games.

After getting run out in the first two games, Short was out to spinners in all the other innings before this game. He was also in and out of the team as neither the team nor his performances were up to the mark.

However, on what seemed like a true Wankhede pitch, Short was given a chance ahead of impressive leggie Ish Sodhi. However, the Hobart Hurricanes opener who was the top-scorer in the Big Bash this year wasted another opportunity as he could only manage 4. He fell in the first over of the chase as he edged one to the wicket-keeper off Jasprit Bumrah.

It was the first time Short was dismissed by a pacer this season but his torrid season just continued.
