IPL 2024, KKR vs MI Match Highlights: KKR beat Mumbai Indians by 18 runs
KKR vs MI IPL 2024, Kolkata Knight Riders vs Mumbai Indians Match Highlights: Kolkata Knight Riders have beaten Mumbai Indians by 18 runs. Mumbai Indians could never recover after the 65-run partnership between Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan was broken and things turned really poor for MI when spinners Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy were introduced in the attack. MI batsmen were falling like house of cards and as a result they fell short of 18 runs as target set by KKR.
Kolkata Knight Riders have scored a decent total of 157/7 in their 16 overs with some good batting display by Venkatesh, Nitish and Andre Russell after losing three quick wickets early on. Piyush Chawla was the pick of the bowlers who provided breakthroughs for the MI at crucial juncture and finished his spell at 28 for 2 in 3 overs. Mumbai need to chase 158 to win the match.
Mumbai Indians have won the toss and decided to bowl first against KKR. Kolkata Knight Riders are hosting Mumbai Indians at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata for match number 60 of IPL 2024. The night match is delayed due to rain and 16-overs-a-side match begins at 9:15 PM IST.
Should Mumbai Indians (MI) hit the reset button and gear up for IPL 2025, or persist with their top lineup despite being ousted from IPL 2024?
One school of thought suggests Mumbai Indians resting key Indian players like Jasprit Bumrah, Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, and Hardik Pandya, especially with the T20 World Cup looming in less than a month. Conversely, there's the argument for maintaining pride and providing valuable match practice to World Cup-bound players against strong opponents, even if a top-four finish is out of reach.
Regardless of MI's decision, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) needn't worry anymore.
Historically, MI has dominated KKR with a heavily skewed win-loss record - 23-10 overall and 7-3 at Kolkata's Eden Gardens. However, with KKR's recent victory at MI's Wankhede Stadium after 12 years and their superior form this season, they hold the advantage heading into the upcoming clash.
KKR aims for a fourth consecutive win and ninth overall this season. A victory would secure them 18 points and a confirmed spot in the playoffs. However, failure to do so might make their remaining away games slightly nerve-wracking. Their priority is solidifying their playoff berth and boosting their chances for a top-two finish in their final home game of the season.
Previous meeting
KKR shattered a 12-year curse at Wankhede Stadium on May 3, staging a remarkable comeback from 57 for 5 to defeat MI by 24 runs. Venkatesh Iyer and the influential Manish Pandey steered KKR to a total of 169 before the spin duo of Andre Russell and Mitchell Starc wreaked havoc on MI's batting lineup.
