In a high-octane clash at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, Mumbai Indians emerged victorious by 12 runs over Delhi Capitals in the 29th match of the ongoing season. Delhi won the toss and opted to bowl first, but Mumbai’s explosive batting performance set a daunting target.
Mumbai posted a hefty target of 206, with captain Rohit Sharma leading the charge. Sharma smashed 18 off 12 balls before falling to Vipraj Nigam. The standout performer for Mumbai was Tilak Varma, who contributed a crucial 59 off 33 balls. Suryakumar Yadav, despite a solid start, was dismissed for 40 off 28 balls by Kuldeep Yadav. Naman Dhir’s brief knock of 38 runs helped Mumbai maintain their momentum, taking to 205/5.
Chasing 206, Delhi Capitals stumbled early, losing a wicket off the very first ball of the match. Jake Fraser-McGurk was dismissed for a golden duck, and Abishek Porel was caught by Naman Dhir off Karn Sharma for 33. Karn Sharma was the architect of Delhi’s downfall, claiming three wickets, including two key dismissals of KL Rahul (15 runs) and Tristan Stubbs (1 run). In the middle order, Ashutosh Sharma (17 runs) and Vipraj Nigam (14 runs) tried to chase but failed to form significant partnerships, as Delhi fell short, finishing on 193/10 in 19 overs.
