Season after season, the Mumbai Indians’ bowl-ing has always lived up to its billing and this year is no exception. Turning on the heat in Sharjah on Tuesday, Rohit Sharma and Co. made a strong statement in a must-win game as they toppled Rajasthan Royals by eight wickets.
This win ensured that Mumbai stayed in the race for the fourth playoff spot. Meanwhile, Rajasthan's chances to qualify still exist, but like MI, they also need to win the last game and hope other results fall in their favour.
MI living to fight another day is a result of their bowling battery that successfully silenced RR’s top-order, eventually resulting in other batters crumbling under pressure.
Nathan Coulter-Nile (4-014-4) and James Neesham (4-012-3) came up with stellar contributions as the Royals were restricted to a below-par 90/9, the lowest total in the IPL this season. Certainly, it was a timid response from the team that had conjured an upset against giants Chennai Super Kings just the other day.
