Mumbai Indians shoot down another 200+ total

Mumbai Indians pulled off a scarcely believable chase against the Punjab Kings in Mohali, tracking down 215 in the nineteenth over.

The onslaught by Jitesh Sharma and Liam Livingstone had gotten Punjab to a massive total, but Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav outdid their counterparts, and indeed, themselves, in the chase, easing home with seven balls to spare.

It was MI’s second successive 200+ chase, making them the first side to the feat in IPL.

Brief scores:

Punjab Kings 214-3 in 20 overs (Liam Livingstone 82*, Jitesh Sharma 49*, Piyush Chawla 2-29) lost to Mumbai Indians 216-4 in 18.5 overs (Ishan Kishan 75, Suryakumar Yadav 66, Nathan Ellis 2-34) by 6 wickets
