Regardless of Mumbai Indians’ outright exhilarating success on Sunday night at the Wankhede Stadium, in what was the 1000th round of the Indian Premier League (IPL), against Rajasthan Royals where Tim David wrapped up the record pursue with hurricane thump which finished with a full go-around of sixes in the last finished, there was a shock among MI fans via twitter.

Fans slammed Sanju Samson for a suspicious act in the firing of their captain Rohit Sharma, and a video of the firing went viral on Twitter

Be that as it may, a new video from the MI-RR game uncovered the genuine truth behind the excusal.

On Sunday, Rohit celebrated his 36th birthday with the intention of giving Mumbai a perfect start in the pursuit of 213. In the history of the IPL, no team has ever successfully chased that number at the Wankhede, and no team has ever succeeded in achieving a target of 213 or more during the tournament.

However, Sandeep Sharma once more grabbed the big fish, so Rohit’s plan was dashed. It was a knuckleball from the pacer as Rohit was deluded by the speed off it. He rocked back and tried to defend the off side, but the ball went past him and hit the nail in the top of the off. Rohit came back and scored only three runs off five hits.

Moments after the firing, footage of the firing went viral on the internet, with MI fans describing it as “unfair.” From a front angle, the video suggests that the bail was hit by the ball but was only unsteady when Samson’s gloves struck it, dislodging it. There was no DRS offer from Rohit nor did the umpire audit it and subsequently no different points were accessible on Sunday.

However, a brand-new video circulated on Twitter on Tuesday and demonstrated that, contrary to what MI fans had alleged, Samson was not involved in any controversial act. In the video, this time from a side point, showed that Samson was really standing a couple of meters from the stump and had no contribution in dislodging the bails with his gloves.

This video from the side on angle shows Sanju Samson was far from stumps, and the ball dislodged the bails in Rohit Sharma's dismissal. Sometimes pictures from specific angles depict a completely different story. #RohitSharma #IPL2023 #MIvsRR pic.twitter.com/KXcT1RdEJu

The Mumbai Indians had planned a memorable victory at home, despite the confusion surrounding the dismissal. Suryakumar Yadav started the turnaround in Mumbai’s innings with a quick 55 runs, and David followed with a 14-ball 45 in which he scored three sixes against Jason Holder in the final over to complete the chase.
