IPL 2018, RR vs MI: 5 talking points

#4 Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan produce their second big partnership of the tournament

Yadav and Kishan added 129 for the second wicket

Following the dismissal of Evin Lewis in the first over, Ishan Kishan came in to join Suryakumar Yadav at the crease. Kishan, who was hit in the eye by the ball during MI's previous game against Royal Challengers Bangalore, started slowly while Suryakumar Yadav was playing with aggression.

Soon Kishan joined the party and began to smash some fours and sixes himself. The way he was batting after his first 10-12 deliveries, it was hard to believe that this was the very player who was hit badly by a ball a few days back.

Both players reached their fifties and added 129 runs for the second wicket. This was the duo's second major partnership of the tournament, having added 78 for the third wicket in the opener against CSK. Yadav scored 72 while Kishan scored 58.
