Rohit provided Mumbai with an impressive start

With a flat pitch and small boundaries at the Wankhede, Mumbai required a high score. Rohit and Kishan established a solid foundation.

Kishan began by hitting Khaleel Ahmed for three fours in the seamer's first two overs. From the other end, Rohit hit Ishant Sharma for two successive fours. He took it up a notch against Jhye Richardson by launching him for two back-to-back sixes.

Observing the fast bowlers leaking runs, Rishabh Pant turned to his spinners. Rohit was in overdrive. In the next nine balls, he hit four fours and a six against Axar Patel and Lalit Yadav. After six overs, he had scored 49 runs off 23 balls, and Mumbai had reached 75 without losing any wickets.
