In a remarkable display of batting prowess, Mumbai Indians reached the target of 197 in just 15.3 overs, clinching a convincing victory with seven wickets in hand. This resounding win not only reaffirms Mumbai Indians’ strength as a formidable contender but also highlights the exceptional talent of Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav, who emerged as the architects of their success.
