Match 13: MI vs DC
The thirteenth match of the fourteenth season took place on Tuesday between the defending champions, Mumbai Indians, and the Delhi Capitals at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The latter emerged victorious by 6 wickets and 5 balls to spare.
Mumbai Indians chose to bat after winning the toss and Rohit Sharma went after the bowling attack immediately smashing boundaries at regular intervals. However, he was overpowered by Amit Mishra’s leg-spin and the turning wicket and got dismissed for 44. Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav tried to stabilize the innings with their 26 and 24 respectively but were dismissed by the Capitals’ spinners. The innings ended with Yadav registering the best performance by the Delhi Capital with his 4/24 and restricting Mumbai Indians to a paltry 137/9.
In response, the Delhi Capitals got off to a stable start with Shikhar Dhawan leading the way. His 45 of 42 balls was only supported by Steve Smith and Lalit Yadav taking the Capitals close to the victory. With 5 needed from 6 balls, Shimron Hetmyer scored a key boundary which sealed the victory for Delhi. The winning runs came off a no-ball with 5 balls to spare handing Mumbai their second defeat.
