A strange incident was seen in the match played between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Mumbai Indians (Mi). Sunrisers batsman Ishaan Kishan walked out without giving out the umpire, which shocked everyone. Kishan did not bat on the ball going to Deepak Chahar’s leg side and neither the bowler nor the fielders appealed but Kishan himself started walking towards the pavilion, due to which the umpire also had to raise his finger.
However, after a few minutes, it was seen in the replay, it became clear that the ball was not on Kishan’s bat. Seeing this bizarre incident, fans on social media are making different allegations against Kishan that he deliberately lost his wicket against his old team while some fans are also accusing him of fixing. At the same time, former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag also reprimanded Kishan.
Sehwag described the incident as “Brainfed Moment” and questioned the young batsman’s decision to go out of the field without waiting for the umpire’s decision. Reacting to this incident, Sehwag said on the cricbage, “Many times, the brain stops working at that time. It was brainfed. Hey brother stop. The umpire is also taking money. Let the umpire also let his work do his work. I could not understand such honesty. If the ball was clear, it would have been right according to the game, but it would not have been a sudden meaning.
‘I did not understand the honesty of Ishan Kishan’

If we talk about this season, the Hyderabad team is currently on the verge of being out of the playoff race. The team is stuck in ninth place in the IPL 2025 table with the sixth defeat in eight matches. Ishaan started this season with a century, but since then his form has declined. In such a situation, only a miracle from here can reach this team to the top-4.
