Banters are best relived between companions and the cricket field never falls shy of witnessing brothermanship. Recently, Tim David and Kieron Pollard, the Mumbai Indians duo were seen indulging in a friendly banter with the West Indies all-rounder having the last laugh in the Abu Dhabi T10.
In the 29th game of the ensuing T10 league, the Delhi Bulls squared off against the New York Strikers with the former choosing to bowl first. The Strikers struggled to pile up runs on the board, managing just 83 for the loss of nine wickets. In response, their bowlers made a collective effort to get a couple of wickets early before Tim David and James Vince set up for an easy chase. As the former went hard at the opposition bowlers, Pollard brought himself into the attack and stole the spotlight with his cheeky jibes.
Pollard was seen strolling towards David and sharing some words with a smile while he was batting. With the Australian big-hitter not losing his wicket for a while, Pollard came into the attack in the ninth over. He bowled a short ball outside the stumps on the second ball of the over, asking the batter to big at it. David rocked back for the pull but found Dewald Brevis at the deep mid-wicket region take a relay catch near the cushions. Following the dismissal of his MI protege, Pollard was seen jubilated with a unique celebration.
