IPL 2019 highlights: kedar jadhav’s fifty goes in vain as mi beat csk by 37 runs

Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians always make for a mouth-watering contest and with Rohit Sharma’s team settled towards the bottom of the points table, fans wondered if he could turn his fortunes. CSK has forever been the team to beat with a host of experienced players who seem to deliver at just about each and every game. Unfortunately for CSK fans, the men in yellow were routed by Mumbai and the home side won by 37 runs.

MS Dhoni won the toss and decided to bowl first. Mumbai sent in Quinton de Kock (4) and Rohit Sharma (13) both of who didn’t last long on the crease. Yuvraj Singh (4) followed suit after Imran Tahir scalped his wicket. Suryakumar Yadav (59) and Krunal Pandya (42) steadied the innings with a gritty fightback. The run scoring was slow and despite the collection of 13 fours and two sixes between the two, Mumbai did not have a commanding score. Hardik Pandya (25*) and Kieron Pollard (17*) were the ones still standing at the end of the innings. The duo added 42 runs in 15 balls to push MI to 170 runs.
