A huge moment for the Kolkata Knight Riders, and for their emerging pacer Saurabh Dubey, as he dismissed Rohit Sharma in the KKR vs Mumbai Indians match for the match number 65 of the ongoing IPL 2026 season.
Tonight, KKR has walked into the Eden Gardens for another must-win match against the Mumbai Indians (MI). Winning the toss, the KKR skipper, Ajinkya Rahane, decided to bowl first. Currently, the bowlers are proving the skipper’s call accurate.
Saurabh Dubey caught Rohit Sharma off guard
Saurabh Dubey has just dismissed the dangerous MI opener Rohit Sharma in his second over of the match. Cameroon Green takes a well-judged catch.

Ryan Rickelton, Rohit Sharma, and Naman Dhir have lost their scalps in front of KKR’s pace attack.

Fans react after Rohit’s poor innings
Rohit Sharma knew that he is getting exposed under pressure after early wickets, because he knows he can’t handle this kind of pressure like Kohli.
Instead of leading his team from the front, he played a careless shot and threw away his wicket.
