2016 VIVO IPL Season 09 - Mumbai Indians’ Kieron Pollard and Parthiv Patel To Join The 100-match club Thursday April 28,2016

Mumbai Indians’ Kieron Pollard and Parthiv Patel are all set to join the IPL ‘100-match club’ when they play Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) @ WAnkhede Stadium Mumbai on Thursday April 28,2016

Kieron Pollard is all set to join Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Suresh Raina, Virat Kohli, Harbhajan Singh and Ambati Rayudu as those who have played their first 100 matches for a single franchise. 

Virat Kohli has played 128 matches for RCB (62 wins), M S Dhoni 129 matches for Chennai Super Kings (78 wins), Suresh Raina 132 matches for CSK (79 wins), Harbhajan Singh 118 matches for MI (67 wins) and Ambati Rayudu 103 matches for MI (62 wins).

The fact that M S Dhoni and Suresh  Raina have been forced to play for another franchise after a long run with CSK may have bugged them, but circumstances caused by the folly one of the CSK representative made it an inevitable happening.

RPS off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin (102 matches), formerly of CSK, has completed 100 matches in this edition as have leg-spinner Delhi Daredevils’ Amit Mishra (102), Gujarat Lions’ Praveen Kumar (102) and Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Shikhar Dhawan (101).
