Chasing a target of 200 runs in T20 cricket is not easy at all, however, seeing MI's batting, it did not seem at all that they had any kind of problem in chasing the target of 200 runs. They chased the target very easily in 16.3 overs and the hero of this run chase was Suryakumar Yadav, who scored a blistering 83 off 35 balls. Nehal Wadhera also played an amazing inning of 54 not out. Apart from this, Ishaan Kishan gave a good start to Mumbai by scoring a quick 42 runs in the beginning. On the other hand, Vijaykumar Vyshak and Wanindu Hasaranga took 2-2 wickets for RCB.
