Mumbai Indians crushed Rajasthan Royals by 100 runs to end the home team’s playoffs hopes in the IPL in Jaipur on Thursday.
Batting first, MI scored 217/2. In reply, RR were all out for 117 in 16.1 overs as MI closed in on securing a playoffs berth. MI rode on brisk half-centuries from Rohit Sharma and Rickelton (61) to post a formidable total. Skipper Hardik PandyaĀ and Suryakumar Yadav gave finishing touches to MI’s innings with their
Ā knocks.
The likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Trent BoultĀ then rattled the RR batting before leg-spinner Karn Sharma wrapped up a big win for the visitors.
