IPL 2026: MI vs SRH, Match 41 highlights | CricTracker

The Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) secured an emphatic victory at the Wankhede Stadium, beating hosts Mumbai Indians (MI) by six wickets in Match 41 of the 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL) on Wednesday, April 29. The win now takes Pat Cummins’ side to 12 points, having won their last matches. 

MI captain Hardik Pandya decided to bat first, with the batters making the most of the conditions at hand. Ryan Rickelton was the star of the show, scoring 123 not out in the first innings to take the hosts to a respectable 243 from their 20 overs. He was partnered well by Will Jacks and Hardik Pandya.

SRH, however, chased down the total with relative ease, thanks to the start provided to them by openers Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, who scored 92 runs in the powerplay. Heinrich Klaasen helped them with the finishing touch, scoring 65 off just 30 balls and remaining not out. It was, however, Salil Arora who made sure SRH aren’t in any trouble, hitting a 10-ball 30, including two sixes in the 19th over bowled by Hardik. 

Key moments of the game:

1. Ryan Rickelton enters MI’s history books

Coming back into the side, Ryan Rickelton made the most of the chance in front of him to score an unbeaten 123 off just 55 balls to bat for the entirety of 20 overs. The South African international is now MI’s highest individual run-scorer in an innings. He surpassed the record previously held by Sri Lanka’s Sanath Jayasuriya, who scored 114 back in 2008.

2. Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head go berserk

SRH’s deadly opening duo of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma once again provided their side with a great start to a massive run chase by scoring 92 runs in the powerplay. When Abhishek was eventually dismissed after 8.4 overs, the 2016 champions had already put 129 on the board. 

3. Heinrich Klaasen and Salil Arora finish off in style

Heinrich Klaasen scored 65 not out of just 30 balls to take SRH closer to victory. It was, however, Salil Arora who applied the finishing touch. The right-handed batter scored 30 runs off just 10 balls to finish the game and hand his side another two crucial points as they look to consolidate their place in the top four.
