IPL
|| CF DESK ||
The Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals staged a spectacular comeback in the match against Mumbai Indians, taking four wickets in rapid succession.
Ishan Kishan and Tilak Varma were leading the Mumbai Indians to victory with half-centuries, but Kishan was sent back to the hut after a superb catch by Navdeep Saini in the deep, and the floodgates opened.
Tilak Varma, Tim David, and Daniel Sams were quickly dispatched by Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal.
Kieron Pollard was unable to lead the Mumbai Indians over the finish line, as they eventually fell to a 23-run defeat.
Earlier, Tilak Varma and Ishan Kishan had steadied the ship for Mumbai Indians as they put on 81 runs for the third wicket.
In the second over of the innings, Mumbai Indians lost Rohit Sharma to Prasidh Krishna, who sent the right-handed hitter back to the pavilion.
Only ten points were scored by Rohit. Jos Buttler brought his A-game to the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy, scoring 100 runs off 68 balls with 11 fours and five sixes to assist the Rajasthan Royals record 193/8 in 20 overs against the Mumbai Indians.
