Mumbai: Chennai Super Kings put up a splendid all-round show headlined by Sanju Samson’s hundred and the bowling heroics of spinners Akeal Hosein and Noor Ahmad to consign Mumbai Indians to a massive and humiliating 103-run defeat in front of a teeming Wankhede Stadium crowd, here on Thursday.
Chasing a challenging 208 for victory, Mumbai Indians were bowled out for a paltry 104 in 19 overs with Hosein scalping a brilliant 4/17 and Ahmad picking 2/23 to propel Chennai Super Kings to a famous victory at the Wankhede.
The 73-run fourth-wicket partnership between Tilak Varma (37) and Suryakumar Yadav (35) was the only batting effort worth the note for Mumbai Indians on an otherwise forgetful night for the five-time champions where almost everything went wrong for them.
Earlier, Samson was the star of the show for Chennai Super Kings with a superb hundred that powered the visiting team to a healthy 207/6 in 20 overs.
