Mumbai Indians batsmen failed miserably against their arch rivals Chennai Super Kings on their home ground
The wicket of Wankhede Stadium is a bit difficult for batting. Even in the first innings, the team batting first, Chennai Super Kings, had to struggle a lot while batting. It was Sanju Samson who made the difference between the two teams.
MI needed someone who could do what Sanju Samson did for the Super Kings. Despite having many experienced and proven batsmen in the format, the home team failed to do so.
A fighting innings from Tilak Verma and Suryakumar Yadav was MI’s only defense against the CSK bowling attack. While Tilak was out after scoring 36 runs in 30 balls, Suryakumar was out after scoring 37 runs in 29 balls. Both Tilak Verma and Sky hit five fours each in their respective innings.
MI captain Hardik Pandya was out cheaply when the team needed him most
The question will be on Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya. When the team needed him most, especially after efforts from Verma and Yadav, Pandya gifted disappointment to his franchise.
The captain of Mumbai Indians got only 1 run on 2 balls. Mumbai’s play-off prospects in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League took a turn for the worse after tonight’s match.
In response to CSK’s 207 runs, Mumbai Indians could score only 104 runs in their innings, and that too in exchange for all their 10 batsmen. The second innings ended in 19 overs. CSK won this match by a huge margin of 103 runs.
