Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma of MI’s left-right team responded by charging in with all of their might.71 runs were scored by the openers off just 45 balls. Tilak Varma, who was promoted to position three, fulfilled his job well by varying his striking and taking strategic risks.

Tim David and Cameron Green were able to maintain composure and aid MI in earning their first victory of the year.
Player of the Match is ROHIT SHARMA
The captain of MI, Rohit Sharma, said, “Winning the game is the most important thing. Since the first game, we have been working very hard. The first victory is always remarkable, I usually say. A spinner was required in this situation. The spinners kept us actively playing. To reach the total, we had to bat well. I believed that all hands were raised. For the sake of the team, we had to deliver. I had to take advantage of the powerplay because I understood that we had to keep attacking and take our chances.I made an effort to work together and was open with Tilak. It was crucial for us to work well together. We have young players who have never participated in the IPL, so we must have faith in them.
