The IPL 2020 clash between Mumbai Indians and Kings XI Punjab witnessed a freakish display from both teams in Dubai. Mumbai Indians and Kings XI Punjab played out a ‘double’ Super Over and it was KL Rahul’s side who came out on top in a pulsating encounter. The display by both teams completely broke social media, but there was one individual who became the centre of attraction. Her presence during the Mumbai Indians vs Kings XI Punjab Super Overs led to tremendous internet speculation. Who was this ‘mystery girl’?
Her photo broke the internet and netizens were speculating who was she. Well, the answer has come out and her name is Riana Lalwani. On her Instagram page, she is from Dubai and has tagged herself as ‘That Super Over girl’. She only has 11 posts on her Instagram handle but already, she has close to 61,000 followers and she follows 700.
Epic thriller
The game between Mumbai Indians and Kings XI Punjab saw a ‘double’ super over after the normal match ended in a tie. In the first super over, Jasprit Bumrah restricted Kings XI Punjab to just five runs but in an incredible exhibition of bowling, Mohammed Shami also restricted Mumbai Indians to five runs. In the next Super Over, Chris Jordan was tasked to bowl to Kieron Pollard and Hardik Pandya and Mumbai Indians managed 11 runs. The total would have been far higher had Mayank Agarwal not stopped a six at long on.
For Mumbai Indians, Trent Boult stepped up to bowl but he could not contain Chri Gayle and Mayank Agarwal, with the Universe Boss slamming a six and Agarwal finishing the match off with two boundaries. Currently, Kings XI Punjab have won three games on the trot and are fifth in the points table while Mumbai Indians are in the second position.
However, on that freakish day, Riana Lalwani stole the show and became an internet sensation.
