He hammered a massive 81 runs off 48 deliveries by hitting 11 fours and two sixes. His impressive strike rate read 168.75. Mumbai scored 59 runs in the final overs with the help of Ishan Kishan. If he faced more balls, he might have ended up with a century as well.
Kuldeep Yadav has taken the most wickets(3) by dismissing Pollard, Anmolpreet Singh, and Rohit Sharma. Khaleel Ahmed took 2 wickets, of Tim David and Tilak Verma. Other bowlers of DC went wicketless.
As no dew factor could be seen on the ground, MI, with their superb bowling attack from players like Jasprit Bumrah, Tymal Mills, and Kieron Pollard, will feel confident to defend the score of 177 runs.
