Result: Chennai Super Kings
beat Mumbai Indians by 20 runs
CSK Batting Highlights:
- Ruturaj Gaikwad came to bat at No.3 and scored 69 off 40. Shivam Dube’s fifty (64* off 38) and a late blitz from MS Dhoni (20* off 4) with three sixes in the final over propelled CSK to a fighting total of 206.
- Jasprit Bumrah (4-27-0) and Muhammad Nabi (3-19-0) were most economical bowler for Mumbai Indians.
MI Batting Highlights:
- Rohit Sharma scored a valiant century (105* off 63) but lacked support from the middle order.
- Matheesha Pathirana (4-28) was CSK’s bowling hero, taking crucial wickets, and stifling the chase with variations.
Turning Point:
The introduction of Matheesha Pathirana in the middle overs (8th
over) turned the tide for Chennai. The dismissals of Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar
Yadav in the eight over pushed Mumbai on the backfoot.
Milestone:
Pathirana becomes the youngest to bag a 4-wicket haul for CSK in IPL
history. He surpassed Sri Lankan spinner Maheesh Theekshana.
Matheesha Pathirana – 21 years & 118 days
Maheesh Theekshana – 21 years & 254 days
