MI vs SRH Highlights, IPL 2023: MI 201/2 (18) beats SRH 200/5 (20) by 8 wickets - Green slams century, Rohit hits fifty

Cameron Green slammed his maiden T20 century and Mumbai Indians keep their hopes alive with a clinical run chase. Green scored an unbeaten 100 off 47 balls and forged a brilliant century with skipper Rohit Sharma who made a scintillating 37-ball 56. Surya did play his part with a cameo as Mumbai is still alive in this tournament. Over to Bangalore and tonight we will get to know who will be the last team to qualify for the Playoffs.

Surya pulls out one of his signature shot as he opens the face of his bat at the last minute to guide Kartik Tyagi over the short third man for a boundary. Green then fetched a boundary as an outside edge saw the ball running away to the third man boundary. Kartik Tyagi was taken off the attack after the bowler bowled a second no-ball as Aiden Markram completed the over. Mumbai needs 8 runs from 18 balls.

Green muscles Umran straight down the ground as the ball races away to the fence and then dances down the track to slash hard and the ball flies over the fielder at deep point as Nitish Reddy completely misjudged the ball. Surya gets into the act as he flays the fast bowler for back-to-back boundaries to keep Mumbai ahead in the run chase. Mumbai needs 21 runs in 24 balls.

Sunrisers still feel they can win the game as Bhuvneshwar Kumar comes back into the attack and bowls an economical over by giving just four runs with Surya not able to find the gaps.

Nitish Reddy plucks out a spectacular catch as Mayank Dagar breaks the 128-run stand with Rohit falling for a brilliant 37-ball 56 and his knock was studded with eight hits to the fence and one six. The fielder just flew in the air at backward point to take a spectacular catch. Suryakumar Yadav starts with a bang with a brilliant inside-out shot for a boundary. Mumbai needs 45 runs in 36 balls.

Top knock from Rohit Sharma as he brings up his half-century in 51 balls by dispatching Kartik Tyagi over the mid-off for a boundary. This is a timely knock from the Mumbai skipper and Sanvir Singh hands Rohit another life by dropping the batsman at extra cover. Rohit then found a boundary off the free hit after Kartik bowled a waist-high no-ball.

Going by Green’s power hitting, Mumbai should close out the chase before the 20th over as the 100-run partnership comes up in 51 balls. Sunrisers need to pick wickets to make a comeback in this game.

Rohit has taken Umran to the cleaners as he uses the pace of the bowler and hammers the pacer for a hat-trick of boundaries with a pull over the keeper’s head being the pick of the shot. 14 runs from the over and Mumbai needs 87 runs in 60 balls. Huge milestone for Rohit as he crosses the 11,000-run mark in T20s.

Vivrant into the attack with his leg breaks and Rohit pounces on a very high full toss and deposits it over the deep mid-wicket for a huge maximum but couldn’t make good use of the free-hit. Green then brought his half-century in 24 balls with a huge six over the long-on and Mumbai cruising at the moment with the 100 coming up in 54 balls.

Change of bat for Rohit works as he welcomes Umran Malik with a ferocious pull over the square leg for a boundary and then takes a single to get off strike. The current and required rate are almost equal, nearing 10 rpo. Good comeback from the pacer as he ends the over well.

Magar Dagar gets the treatment as Green tonks one over the long-off for a maximum and then brings the fifty-run partnership with a massive pull over the deep mid-wicket for yet another maximum.

There is no stopping Green as the Australian continues to deal in boundaries, this time hammering Kartik Tyagi for two sixes. The batsman then hammered two boundaries - one straight past the bowler with Tyagi getting his fingertips on the ball and ended the over with a boundary between the cover and point region as Mumbai ends PowerPlay on a high.

What a dramatic over as Rohit Sharma gets a life and so does Cameron Green, who survives a run-out. Green then adds salt to the injury by smashing Nitish Reddy for a brilliant six over the deep mid-wicket. Sanvir Singh miscalculated his running as he couldn’t settle underneath the skier and hands the Mumabai skipper a life.

Mayank Dagar into the attack and Rohit nails the spinner for a boundary through the point region and then skipped down the track but couldn’t connect. Green is dealing in boundaries as he lofted Dagar for a boundary over the mid-on region.

Early setback for Mumbai as Ishan Kishan falls with Bhuvneshwar removing the opener. The pressure of getting quick runs inside the PowerPlay brought Ishan’s downfall. It was a short ball with Ishan going for a pull but couldn’t get the timing right as Brook took an excellent catch. Cameron Green is off the mark with a boundary to the long-on region.

Ishan Kishan welcomes Notish Reddy with a brilliant pick-up shot as the ball landed into the deep backward square stands and then collected a boundary by bringing his wrists into play and beating the fielder at short fine leg. The bowler, however, made a good comeback by taking the pace off the ball with Ishan struggling to time the ball.

Rohit is up and running as an outside edge gets the batsman off the mark with a boundary and that’s a decent start from Mumbai. The atmosphere is electric and the home side knows the importance of the game.

Right then we are back for the chase as Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan will look to gun down the total in quick time and keep their qualification hopes alive. Kartik Tyagi has substituted Mayank Agarwal and it’s Bhuvneshwar Kumar with the new ball.

In the last five overs, Mumbai picked four wickets and most importantly dried up the boundaries with Akash Madhwal picking two crucial wickets. Sunrisers’ innings was largely built around Vivrant Sharma’s brilliant 47-ball 69 and Mayank Agarwal’s superb 46-ball 83 as the openers forged a 140-run opening stand. Mumbai did stage a fightback in the second half of the game and they now need 201 runs with Markram finishing the innings with a maximum.

Akash Madhwal bowls the penultimate one and Mumbai has pulled things back as the boundaries did dry up. The bowler did bowl a no-ball but the free hit cost just a single. Madhwal then knocked put Klaasen as the batsman went for a heave across the line only to miss it and the ball crashes into the stumps. The fast bowler then packed off Harry Brook with a brilliant yorker and that’s the end of Brook’s poor season.

Jordan into the attack and removes Glenn Phillips who hits a full toss straight to Kumar Kartikeya at fine leg and that’s a wicket and a dot ball. Kartikeya then stopped a certain boundary to make it just six runs from the over.

Klaasen plays a lovely shot as he employed a fine sweep shot to deposit Akash Madhwal for a boundary to the square leg region. Agarwal falls for a wonderful 83 off just 46 deliveries as the bowler induces an outside edge and Ishan Kishan takes a simple catch behind the stumps. Mayank misses a century but this has been a solid knock.

Both teams will look to finish well at the death overs and Mayank hits his fourth six by lofting Chawla straight over the bowler’s head for a huge maximum. Time for both teams to take a break with four overs to go.

There is no stopping Mayank Agarwal as he drills Kartikeya for a boundary over the covers and then takes the aerial route straight down the ground to keep the tempo going for Sunrisers.

This is Mayank Agarwal at his best as the opener launches Akash for a maximum over the long-off region as the bowler missed an attempted yorker. The bowler finally has the last laugh after breaking the 140-run opening stand as Vivrant’s brilliant knock of 69 in 47 balls comes to an end. Excellent knock from the SRH opener. Klassen starts from where he left behind as the batsman opens his account with a boundary.

Mayank Agarwal hits his first half-century of the season and he will be pleased with his effort with the bat after blowing hot and cold this season. A six over the covers followed by a boundary off Behrendroff helped Mayank reach the landmark. Both batsmen are going great guns with Vivrant depositing Behrendroff for a huge maximum over the deep mid-wicket.

Rohit leads by example by putting a full-fledged dive and stopping a certain boundary but Vivrant deposited Chawla to the long-off region. Mayank is now approaching towards his half-century.

This is getting tougher for Mumbai as the breakthrough hasn’t yet come with Vivrant taking on Kartikeya for a boundary over the short fine leg. The surface has always supported batsmen but in a must-win tie, Mumbai needed early wickets. The 100-run partnership is up between Mayank and Vivrant.

What a knock Vivrant is playing as he pockets two boundaries - the first a brilliant shot through the mid-wicket and the second off an inside edge. The SRH opener gets to his maiden IPL half-century in 36 balls with a single to the point region.

Kartikeya continues and gives Mumbai a bit of control by giving just five runs and going by the current run-rate, SRH is poised to post a score around 220.

There is no stopping Vivrant as the southpaw smokes Chawla over the deep mid-wicket for an 82-metre maximum and that’s a brilliant shot. This is a fine start from Sunrisers as both teams take a time-out break.

Kumar Kartikeya into the attack and Mayank pockets a boundary as Mumbai struggles to break the opening stand. There is turn and bounce as the spinner induced an outside edge but it was a tough chance for Behrendroff at short third man. Runs continue to flow freely for Sunrisers.

Akash Madhwal into the attack and Mumbai has missed a run-out chance and Mayank was nowhere in the scene. There was an opportunity to make a breakthrough but Mumbai failed to capitalise on it. Mayank then ended the over with a glorious shot through the covers for a brilliant boundary.

Chris Jordan into the attack and Vivrant welcomes the bowler with back-to-back boundaries smashing a length delivery through the backward point and then danced down the track to smash over the covers. This is good positive batting from the Sunrisers opener.

Behrendroff struggling a bit with his line as he bowls a couple of consecutive wides and Mayank gets going with a boundary to the long-off region. The opener then timed the ball brilliantly through the covers for another boundary. 12 runs from Behrendroff’s second over.

Cameron Green into the attack and Mayank was almost back in the hut but managed to get his bat inside the crease just in time and survived a direct hit.

Vivrant Sharma starts in an attacking fashion as the opener skipped down the track and slapped Behrendroff over the covers for a brilliant boundary. The bowler, however, does well to come back strongly and finish the over well.

Right then Rohit Sharma is cool and collected as the Mumbai skipper delivers a pep talk to lift his side ahead of a must-win encounter. For Hyderabad, it’s Vivrant Sharma along with Mayank Agarwal as Sunrisers have put a record seventh new opening pair in this edition. With the ball, it will be Jason Behrendroff who will start proceedings.
