MI fans roast Rohit Sharma and team for losing record 6th consecutive match in IPL 2022

Mumbai Indians got beaten in the hands of Lucknow Super Giants, losing the match by 18 runs in Match 26 of IPL 2022. 

Chasing the difficult target of 200, MI could manage only 181/9 as their horrific run in the season continues. 

Captain Rohit Sharma failed again as other batters also did not live up to expectations. 

MI bowlers too continued to be unimpressive with the ball in hand. Apart from Jasprit Bumrah, there was no one who raised their hands and deliveried on the day. 

MI fans are upset with the team and they are trolling, roasting Rohit Sharma's men for poor show in the tournament.

MI have now recorded 6th consecutive losses in the tournament at the start of the IPL and they join DC and RCB who also lost 6 matches on trot in IPL 2013 and IPL 2019 respectively. 

Here's how they roasted the five-time IPL champions on Twitter on Saturday:

No need to rethink.
Just change your whole bowling lineup

Play these 11 players in the next match:

Rohit
Ishan
Brevis
SKY
Tilak
Pollard
Sanjay Yadav/Tim David
Hrithik Shokeen
Arshad Khan
Riley Meredith
Jasprit Bumrah

But first drop Rohit and give captaincy to Surya or Pollard.

MI became successful because it took tough decisions.
Even Ricky Ponting dropped himself when he thought he was not batting well.

Same shd apply to Rohit who hasn't scored anything for last 3-4 years.

No guys ,there no chance this time. Need to win all 8 matches to qualify which isn't possible wid this bowling line up. Weakest bowling lineup in 14 years of IPL .Plz get some good bowlers next yr .Want Sam Curran/Ben stokes in the team and even some good Indian bowling options.

After Rahul`s unbeaten 103 off 60 balls laced with nine fours and five sixes enthralled fans in a sunny afternoon and powered Lucknow to 199/4, Mumbai didn`t get any substantial score which they needed from their betters and could only get 181/9 in their 20 overs, slumping to their sixth consecutive loss of the ongoing tournament.

Avesh Khan was pick of bowlers for Lucknow, taking three wickets while others barring Krunal Pandya chipped in with a wicket each. Rohit Sharma`s indifferent run continued as he nicked behind off Avesh Khan. Young Dewald Brevis continued from where he left off in his 49-blitz against Punjab Kings, crunching Khan through point for four on his very first ball.

He got another four through an outer edge off Ravi Bishnoi and clubbed Dushmantha Chameera with a straight bat for a six over long-on. Brevis followed it up by hitting Chameera for fours through cover point and over mid-off. He slapped Khan for back-to-back fours through mid-wicket and down the ground before the pacer took out the right-hander with a full toss hit straight to extra cover to fall for a 13-ball 31. Just three balls after Brevis fell, Ishan Kishan chopped on to his stumps off Marcus Stoinis.

Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma rotated strike well with the senior batter hitting a few fours with his powerful whip through mid-wicket. With the asking rate creeping to 12, Yadav and Varma hit a four each off Krunal Pandya followed by doing the same against Bishnoi.

The 64-run stand off 48 balls for the fourth wicket ended as Jason Holder`s yorker rattled Varma`s off-stump. In the next over, Yadav tried to pull a short ball from Bishnoi but mistimed to deep square leg. Kieron Pollard kept Mumbai in the game by smacking sixes off Chameera over wide long-on and deep mid-wicket before crunching a four through wide long-on off Khan. Though Fabian Allen fell after slicing straight to short third man, all eyes were on Pollard as Mumbai needed 43 off last 12 balls.

But it was Jaydev Unadkat`s cameo of 14 which gave some hope to Mumbai. He began by picking a four through cover drive on his first ball off Khan. He followed it up by smacking Holder over long-on for a six followed by a four in the gap between long-on and long-off fielders. With 26 needed off the final over, a massive mix-up saw Unadkat run-out while trying to go for the second run. Murugan Ashwin tonked a six over long-on but was immediately run out on the non-striker`s end while going for a run. Pollard`s flick off went straight to long-on off Chameera, making it a case of so close yet so far again for Mumbai.
