$Me_{2}SiCl_{2}$ on hydrolysis will produce $Me_{2}Si(OH)_{2}$ as follows

$MeSi(OH)_{2}$ is unstable compound and it loses water molecule to give $Me_{2}SiO$. But silicon atom because of its very large size in comparison to oxygen, is unable to form $\pi$-bond. Thus, the product of hydrolysis is polymeric in nature.
