#1 Rohit dropping himself down to number 5 in the batting order

Rohit Sharma, who is generally slated to come at number 3 dropped himself to number 5 and this turned out to be a masterstroke. With more than 10 runs per over required off the last 5 overs, Rohit Sharma and Krunal Pandya threw caution to the wind as both the batsman tore apart the Kings XI Punjab bowlers to register a thumping victory.
It all started in the 17th over, when Rohit Sharma took charge against Mujeeb Ur Rahman by smashing him for 2 sixes; this over yielded 14 runs. With 36 to win off 18 balls, Krunal Pandya showed his batting prowess by smashing Marcus Stoinis for 2 fours and a gigantic six to bring the equation down to 16 of 12 balls.
The formalities were done in the penultimate over as Mumbai Indians won the game with an over to spare.
