Mumbai Indians (MI) captain Hardik Pandya continued his flop show with the bat in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, this time against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Mullanpur on Thursday (April 18). The right-handed batter holed out to mid-wicket to depart for just 10 runs off six balls.
The dismissal came during the 18th over of MI innings. Harshal Patel bowled a slower, length ball that angled into the right-hander. Pandya swung his bat with a one-handed swipe but only managed to find Harpreet Brar at mid-wicket. It was the third time that Harshal dismissed Pandya in five innings, giving away 13 runs in as many balls.
Watch Hardik Pandya's wicket below:
Hardik Pandya departed for just two off six deliveries in his previous outing against Chennai Super Kings (CSK).
Overall, the 30-year-old has managed 141 runs in seven games at an average of 23.5 without any half-century. With the ball, he has scalped three wickets, including two against the Super Kings, but was hit for a hat-trick of sixes by MS Dhoni in the last over.

A clinical batting display helped Mumbai Indians post 192 against Punjab Kings in the IPL on Thursday.
Suryakumar Yadav starred with the bat, scoring 78 runs off 53 balls in an innings laced with three maximums and seven boundaries. The right-hander also shared an 81-run partnership with Rohit Sharma for the second wicket. Rohit and Tilak Varma chipped in with 36 (25) and 34*(18), respectively.
Harshal Patel emerged as the leading wicket-taker, picking up three wickets, while skipper Sam Curran and Kagiso Rabada bagged two and one wickets, respectively.
Punjab's highest chase so far is 211 against Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2014. Their most recent 200+ chase came against Gujarat Titans earlier this season.
Both MI and PBKS are chasing their third win in their seven games. The two will be keen to return to winning ways after losing their last matches.
