Mumbai defeated Hyderabad by 34 runs on Sunday, October 4 in the 17th match of the ongoing Dream11 Indian Premier League 2020 (IPL 2020) season. In pursuit of Mumbai’s 208-run total, David Warner and co. faltered in their run-chase as they managed to compile only 174-7 on a batting friendly Sharjah surface. As has been the case throughout the season so far, ex-cricketer Virender Sehwag once again gave his take on the recently-concluded game, as part of his social media show Viru Ki Baithak.

Dream11 IPL 2020: Virender Sehwag mocks Manish Pandey for failing to convert a good start
On Monday, October 5, i.e. one day after Hyderabad’s defeat, Virender Sehwag comically trolled their No. 3 batsman Manish Pandey. During the run-chase, the cricketer arrived to the crease after opener Jonny Bairstow departed for 25. Skipper David Warner and Manish Pandey then formed a 60-run second-wicket stand before the latter lost his wicket for a 19-ball 30.
Speaking about Manish Pandey’s failure to see his side through in their run-chase against Mumbai, Virender Sehwag said he looked in good touch while batting at the crease. However, he jokingly criticised Pandey’s failure of capitalising his good start into a big match-winning score. Virender Sehwag said “Ab lag raha hai Chinese goods ko bhi bura lag jaayga jaise Pandeyji khel rahe hai.” (Translation: “Now even Chinese goods would be ashamed to be compared to Manish Pandey’s batting, considering the way he’s playing.”)
