A glitch in scorecard saw Rohit Sharma bowling against KKR [Source: Instagram and screengrabs]Technical glitches are a mandatory part of a tournament that caters to 50 cr+ viewers. However, there is something unprecedented that happened during the MI vs KKR IPL 2026 match on March 29 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai to bug Rohit Sharma and his fans. The match started with Kolkata Knight Riders coming into bat first after losing the toss. Hardik Pandya & Co. were on the field and as soon as Trent Boult came into bowl the first over, a glitch had Rohit Sharma opening the bowling for Mumbai Indians. Who Handles The Scorecard During IPL 2026?The scorecard during the live streaming or live broadcasting of a match is a key aspect of the cricket-watching experience, and broadcasters and streaming partners make sure to notch the quality of that experience up a notch in every edition. Like every season, this year too, IPL 2026 featured a graphical scorecard at the bottom of the viewing screen. The scorecard is usually made by a team of experts who blend in layers of graphics and coding with a real-time feed of the match. While it remains error-free for most of the time, there might be some bugs or glitches from time to time that viewers spot. Similarly, a Rohit Sharma bug was spotted by the fans in the KKR vs MI live IPL match scorecard.

Mar 29, 2026, 7:34 PM KKR Gets A Strong Start From Captain Ajinkya RahaneMumbai Indians, on the other hand, didn’t start on a great note at Wankhede. Although Hardik Pandya won the toss, Kolkata Knight Riders' openers Finn Allen and Ajinkya Rahane slammed some gritty knocks to outfox the MI bowlers. Rahane, currently unbeaten at the crease, scored his half-century while putting on a 32-ball 69-run partnership with Finn Allen. Allen, who was dismissed in the sixth over, also showed dominance with his 17-ball 37 at a strike rate of 217.65. However, he was sent back by Shardul Thakur in an attempt to hammer a slower delivery outside the off stump. Cameron Green, the most expensive buy of the IPL 2026 auction, also had to walk back early, scoring only 18 runs off 10 deliveries, as Shardul Thakur struck again in the ninth over. However, KKR were in a strong position despite losing two quick wickets, as the team totalled 110 runs for the loss of two wickets at the end of 9 overs. Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians bowlers Jasprit Bumrah has been fairly beaten in his first over, where he conceded 11 runs. AM Ghazanfar too took a beating, leaking 24 runs from his two-over spell. Nevertheless, Rohit Sharma will be there to open with Ryan Rickelton, while Suryakumar Yadav will be entering to bat as an impact player.Also Read- Why Quinton De Kock Is Not Playing MI Vs KKR IPL 2026 Match 2?
