Boult and Pattinson starred with two wickets each and MI reached the top of points table.
MI had batted first after winning the toss and 67 from Quinton de Kock and valuable contributions from the Pandya brothers, which included Krunal hitting 20 runs from 4 balls and Pollard’s 25*, enabled MI to put forth a formidable target for SRH.
In reply, Jonny Bairstow hit a quick-fire 25, and then Manish Pandey made 30 in 19 balls. But it looked like captain David Warner, who made 60 in 44 balls will take them through. However, Trent Boult (2/28) and James Pattinson (2/29) halted that progress with wickets at crucial moments. Williamson and Garg made single-digit scores, giving MI an opening.
The cricket fraternity lauded brilliance by MI bowlers especially Boult and Pattinson and top-notch captaincy by Rohit Sharma as well. They took to Twitter in order laud a great win for MI and we have some of the best tweets for you.
