Mumbai wasted chance due to irresponsible batting of Rohit Sharma.

There are 2 categories of batsmen in India. On one hand there is Virat Kohli who is a master blaster. At the same time he is a responsible batsman. On the other hand there is Rohit Sharma, who is highly talented but very reckless.
Today Sunrisers Hyderabad made a decent score of 176 runs. Mumbai had ample opportunity of chasing it in Vishakapatnam stadium.
But due to reckless shot of Rohit Sharma of getting out for 5 runs they collapsed to 50 runs for 6 wickets. Rohit Sharma recklessly drived a wide delivery of Ashish Nehra and brought the ball back to his stumps. It was disgusting batting.
It was equally reckless batting by Parthiv Patel, Rayadu and Kunal Pandya. Instead of making a partnership they went to play big shots.
Mumbai dont deserve to go to the Semi-finals.

Mumbai Indians keep playing one odd game like this every season.
They rely heavily on top 3.
Sharma played bad short, but it was perfect opportunity for middle order to prove the substance.
Butler could have played the long due innings from him.

Yes Avinashji. I agree with you, Butler and Pollard could have stayed in the wicket and created a partnership.

@sathviksouvik The irony of fate is even though Virat Kohli is the highest scorer of IPL this season, RCB seems no way near to make it top 4 at this point.

@avi256 Yes Avinashji, RCB had got great batting but the bowlers are not performing well.
