Ishan Kishan might have left Mumbai Indians, but the camaraderie with his former teammates, aas seen in their second match, against Mumbai Indians at Hyderabad. Deepak Chahar, the bowler from Mumbai, gave a widish ball, which Kishan tried to swing his bat off, but reached the gloves of the keeper, Ryan Rickelton. The umpire who initially gave the wide signal had to overturn his decision, as he saw Ishan walking out.
Deepak Chahar, as well as the captain Hardik Pandya, was seen interested in the wicket. But it was Ishan who made the final call. Even for a second, he thought of coming back, seeing the umpire delaying to give the call, but ultimately walked out disheartened as the umpire finally dismissed him.
But what followed was a friendly pat on Ishan's helmet from Hardik Pandya, who probably was not expecting him to walk out. Well, has the ball really touched it? No. After he left, it was checked that the ball passed by the bat easily without touching it. Had any side taken the review, Ishan would have survived.
