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 (53) and Ryan Rickelton (61) to post a formidable total.
Skipper Hardik Pandya (48*) and Suryakumar Yadav (48*) gave finishing touches to MI’s innings with their whirlwind knocks. The likes of Jasprit Bumrah (2/15) and Trent Boult (3/28) then rattled the RR batting before leg-spinner Karn Sharma (3/23) wrapped up a big win for the visitors
