Corbin Bosch played a great cameo to take Mumbai Indians’ (MI) score past 150 when, at one point, it looked like MI could finish under 130 against Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, which is known for high scores. Bosch came to bat in the 14th over when MI’s score was 113-6. He started very slowly but took off in the 19th over when he hit a four off Mohammed Siraj. In the 20th over, he unleashed his power-hitting with two back-to-back sixes off Prasidh Krishna.
The second six was unbelievable to watch. Bosch scored 27 off 22 balls at a strike rate of 122.73, including one four and two sixes. Alongside Deepak Chahar, he built a crucial 27-run partnership from 20 balls, which was very important for MI. Bosch is out of the match due to concussion and Ashwani Kumar replaced him.
The third-wicket partnership between Will Jacks and Suryakumar Yadav brought some stability
Earlier, Gujarat Titans (GT) won the toss and elected to field first. Ryan Rickelton and Rohit Sharma opened the innings, but both fell cheaply for two and seven, respectively. The third-wicket partnership between Will Jacks and Suryakumar Yadav brought some stability to the MI innings. While they were at the crease, MI looked set for a big total.
They put up a 71-run stand off 43 balls before Suryakumar fell to R Sai Kishore, caught by Shahrukh Khan for 35 off 24 balls at a strike rate of 145.83. Jacks didn’t last long after that and was dismissed for 53 off 35 balls, which included five fours and three sixes, at a strike rate of 151.43. GT bowlers performed excellently, with every bowler contributing at least one wicket. Sai Kishore was the pick of the bowlers, claiming the key wickets of Suryakumar Yadav and MI captain Hardik Pandya.
