Mumbai Indians (MI) defeated Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) by 10 runs at MA Chidam🌱baram 🌱Stadium in Chennai on Tuesday in a nail-biting thriller.

Chasing the paltry target of 153, KKR opener Nitish Rana continued from where he left in the previous fixture, where he had smashed 80 off just 56 balls. The left-handed batsman followed that up with a fa🌳ntastic 50 from 40 ܫdeliveries.

Rana formed a crucial 72-run partnership with Shubman Gill before MI spinner Rahul Chahar send shockwaves to the KKR batting unit by dismissing the top-four batters. Chahar broke the opening partnership by dismissing Shumban for 33. He then removed Rahul Tripathi (5), Eoin Morgan (7) and Rana (57).

Rana’s dismissal followed a collapse as KKR could not get over the line, and M🅺umbai 🦂won the contest to register their first victory of IPL 2021.

Earlier, Andre Russell‘s career-best bowling figures saw Mumbai getting bowled out for 152 runs in their allotted 20 overs. The Caribbean superstar bowled just two overs in the match and bagged a five-wicket haul for 15 runs. Russel’s incredible effort with the ball propelled Kolkata to become the first team to bundle Mumbai out in the IPL since 2018.

Not only this, but Russell also registered the best bowling figures by a KKR bowler in the cash-rich league. He leapfrogged Sunil Narine, who had claimed a fifer for 19 runs against Punjab Kings (then Kings XI Punjab) in 2012.

For the defending champions, Surya Kumar Yadav and skipper Rohit Sharma were the highest scorers. While Surya scored a scintillating 56 from 36 deliveries at an impressive strike rate of 155.56, featuring🙈 seven fours and two sixes.

On the other hand, Rohit contributed 43 off 32 balls packed with four boundarie▨s, including a ♑maximum.

Fabulo🔯us 18th over by Krunal, with Russell and DK out there to concede just 3 was mind boggling!

Brilliant captaincy from Rohit. Sensed Andre Russell wouldn't take a chance early on & attacked him with men around. Created a chance. Saved Bumrah for Russell. Chahar bowled brilliantly. Fantastic comeback. MI have won 22 out of 28 IPL games v KKR

KKR played the reputat🐻ion of the opposition than the ball or the situation. Should have stuck to t꧑heir natural game and won it easily.
— Gaurav Sundararaman (@gaurav_sundar)

A mid inning batting collapse is the true test of your ultra aggressive batting approach. If that's how you have decided to play an entire season, then there is no reason to stop irrespective of how many wickets you lose. Can't have half measures like KKR did today.
— cricBC (@cricBC)

Bumrah dropped the catch of Russell in the 18th over, then KKR needed 19 from 12 balls then he just give 4 runs – He is just above everyone in death.

W♕ouldn’t have even been his first hat trick in the 20th over of a T20 innings. Andre Russell, what a player.
