Digital Desk: Mumbai Indians (MI) opened their account in the ongoing
Indian Premier League (IPL) with a dramatic six-wicket triumph over Delhi
Capitals (DC) on Tuesday at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Mumbai got off to a fast
start in their chase of 173, with Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan scoring 71 runs
for the first wicket. Ishan was then removed for 31 due to a mix-up.
Following his dismissal, Rohit and Tilak Varma put on a crucial 68-run
stand for the second wicket until Mukesh Kumar re-opened the battle in the 16th
over. Tilak was dismissed for 41(29), and Suryakumar Yadav was out for a
first-ball duck. Rohit, who had his first half-century in the championship
after 25 innings, was out in the following over for 65(45), caught by
wicketkeeper Abishek Porel.
Tim David and Cameron Green brought Mumbai home in the final ball of the
match after he was dismissed. Earlier, Axar Patel hit a stunning 25-ball 54 to
rescue Delhi after they were reduced to 98/5. Apart from him, David Warner
reached another half-century before being dismissed for 51.(47).
Meanwhile, Mumbai performed admirably in the death overs, picking the
final five batsmen in 10 balls. Jason Behrendorff and Piyush Chawla each took
three wickets.
