Ishan Kishan Trolled Online, Questioned After Sacrificing Wicket: 'Why Is He Laughing...'
@Source: news18.com
Star India and Sunrisers Hyderabad wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan has been brutally trolled online after he sacrificed his wicket against the Mumbai Indians despite not being out, with fans pointing out at his recent association with the five-time champions.
Instead of putting pressure on the Mumbai bowlers, Hyderabad presented a meek batting show, which was compounded by a reckless decision from Ishan, who walked back despite not having edged one behind the stumps.
Deepak Chahar’s (2/12) ball drifted down the leg side, which the on-field umpire called a wide. But seeing Ishan walking back, he raised his finger.
“There wasn’t even an edge, still Ishan left the crease smiling… Ishan’s loyalty on peak for MI?🥵,” a user tweeted on Wednesday evening.

Not just trolls, but even revered commentator Harsha Bhogle has questioned his stance on the non-dismissal.
“You think you have seen it all after all these years, and yet I must admit the Ishan Kishan dismissal leaves me perplexed,” Bhogle tweeted.

“That moment when only the Umpire and Ishan Kishan remembered the script, but other Mumbai players forgot and didn’t appeal. Chaos 🤣🤣?,” another user tweeted.
