Mumbai met Delhi in their last game where Mumbai was invited to bat first and they started well. Almost everyone in the batting order contributed, with Tilak Varma being the highest scorer with another half-century. Delhi had a target of 20,6, and what a brilliant start they had with Karun Nair. But his knock went in vain as the middle order crumbled, and with three run-outs in the same over, Mumbai won the game by 12 runs.

Hyderabad faced Punjab in their last encounter, where Punjab was batting first and put up a stellar show with the bat. Significant contributions from several, led by Iyer, put up a mighty total of 245 runs. Quite opposite to their usual, Hyderabad were phenomenal in the chase. Abhishedk wreaked havoc on them with his blistering century, eventually winning his team the game by eight wickets.

High scores are guaranteed when you include the short boundaries. Mumbai supporters should prepare for another exciting game with lots of runs on Monday.
