Hardik Pandya was taken to the cleaners as Kolkata Knight Riders got off to a flyer in their clash against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium. Bowling the 4th over, Pandya was hit to all parts of the ground by KKR skipper Ajinkya Rahane and Finn Allen as they picked up 25 runs from his over.

Rahane set the tone with two consecutive sixes off Hardik to start off the over. Pandya erred in his length and bowled it down the legside, making it easy work for Rahane who helped himself to a couple of maximums.
He then turned over strike to Finn Allen with a quick leg bye. Allen then hit the MI captain for a hat-trick of boundaries to take the count to 25 for the over. It was the second most he had conceded in an over in IPL.
