West Indian cricketers are known for being brute hitters of the ball but Rovman Powell displayed in an IPL fixture that it is not the only expertise they possess. Powell was plugged in with a mike by the broadcaster and his hilarious interaction with the commentators made everyone smile.

It has been an easy task for the Mumbai Indians while chasing the target of 173 as they are poised at 92/1 at the end of 10 overs. David Warner and Axar Patel batted brilliantly for DC while ‘hitman’ Rohit Sharma was on fire for Mumbai Indians. While the viewers were enjoying Rohit’s fluent shots, Rovman Powell switched on his skills of doing standup comedy during his chat with the commentators. 

Powell joined the interaction with the commentators in the second over and he revealed during the conversation that DC were looking to restrict the opposition during powerplay and their spinners will play a crucial role after that. However, the interaction took an interesting turn when the sound engineer entered the ground asking Powell for the mic assuming that the conversation has ended. However, he refused to hand over the mic saying that the over hasn’t concluded yet and the interaction is not over. 

His antics made the commentators Harsha Bhogle and Anjum Chopra laugh and they were heard chuckling throughout the conversation. Harsha went on to say that Powell has played the role of expert commentator. Twitteratis also enjoyed these hilarious scenes and expressed their sentiments.

For all the hubbub around white-ball cricket, the stakes of a red-ball game remain unmatched for the result doesn't define the toil of one day or 40 overs but four days of sweat. Frustration only becomes natural thus when teammates fail to cooperate, as was evident in the Bengal-Punjab Ranji clash.

It is always a painful sight for a cricketer to see his teammate’s poor fielding but the feeling becomes worse when he witnesses his own poor showing on the field. Suryakumar Yadav experienced the same kind of pain when he watched a replay of his own fielding blooper in the dugout.
