Rajasthan Royals (RR) beat Mumbai Indians (MI) by six wickets and with 27 balls to spare in match 14 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at the Wankhede Stadium Stadium in Mumbai on Monday, April 1 to move to the top of the points table.
Chasing 126 to win, the Royals seemed in some sort of trouble early on as they lost three quick wickets. However, Riyan Parag and R Ashwin got together to add 40 for the fourth wicket. Parag went on to hit his second fifty (54*) of the season as he took the team home for their third win on the trot. Akash Madhwal picked three wickets for Mumbai. This also gave Parag the orange cap.
Earlier MI were restricted to 125/9 in their 20 overs against Yuzvendra Chahal (3/11) and Trent Boult (3/22) was the main wicket-taker for the visitors. Skipper Hardik Pandya (34) and Tilak Varma (32) looked like the only two batters to have posed any threat to Rajasthan.
RR skipper Sanju Samson won the toss and decided to bowl first. While Mumbai is yet to win a game, the Royals will be coming on the back of back-to-back victories.
