Chennai Super Kings (CSK) pacer Tushar Deshpande stunned Mumbai Indians (MI) captain Rohit Sharma with an excellent delivery in the ongoing IPL 2023 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Saturday, April 8.
The incident took place in the fourth over. Deshpande bowled a back-of-the-length delivery and Rohit missed it altogether. The ball held its line and hit the middle stump with bails flying a fair distance.
With the dismissal, the hosts lost their first wicket for 38.

Rohit scored 21 off 13 balls, including a maximum and three fours. The right-handed batter previously failed to deliver against the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in their opening IPL 2023 game, where he departed for a solitary run. MI lost that game by eight wickets.
Despande, on the other hand, has bounced back after leaking 51 runs for one wicket in CSK’s opening game versus Gujarat Titans (GT), which they lost by five wickets. The 27-year-old finished with figures of 2/45 as the Chennai-based franchise beat the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by 12 runs at home in their previous game.
