Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians are locking horns in the Eliminator of the ongoing edition of Indian Premier League. After being invited to bowl first, the LSG bowlers enjoyed their day out as they jolted the MI batting lineup at regular intervals. Afghanistan pacer Naveen-ul-Haq starred for the Lucknow-based franchise as he dismissed the key batters in skipper Rohit Sharma, Cameron Green and in-form batter Suryakumar Yadav.

What was more appealing to see was the Afghan pacer brought up injured LSG skipper KL Rahul’s celebration after dismissing the three batters. While he dismissed skipper Rohit Sharma at the score of 11, he quickly stood in silence, covering his ears with a finger each. He emulated the celebration after dismissing Green and SKY later in the inning.
