Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Kumar produced a superb effort with the bat as Mumbai Indians completed a gigantic 215-run chase against Punjab Kings with seven balls to spare and won the match by six wickets in Mohali on Wednesday.
The pair added 116 runs for the third wicket after Mumbai were reduced to 54/2 in the final ball of the powerplay. Ishan scored 75 in 41 balls before getting out to Arshdeep Singh, while Suryakumar was dismissed by Nathan Ellis, who scalped two wickets in his full quota.
Following their dismissals, Tilak Varma and Tim David joined the chase and wrapped the contest with zero fuss. Arshdeep, who had emerged as the hero in the reverse fixture played at Wankhede, was a big flop in Mohali as he leaked 66 runs in the 3.5 overs he bowled.
