The crucial Mumbai Indians Vs Sunrisers Hyderabad clash came down to Jasprit Bumrah and Rashid Khan — two of the best limited-overs bowlers — battling it out in a Super Over.
It was Bumrah who came out on top, while Rashid ran into an in-form Hardik Pandya as Mumbai sealed their play-offs berth with a thrilling win. Both sides were tied on 162, with Pandey stretching the game to the Super Over hitting Hardik for a last-ball six. Sunrisers, though, couldn't quite do the job as they managed just eight runs in the Super Over, losing two wickets in four balls. Pandey, who had remained unbeaten on 71 off 47 in the chase, was run out first ball when he tried a second run. Mohammad Nabi, who had made a crucial 20-ball 31, hit Bumrah for a six but fell when he became too greedy and tried another big hit. Hyderabad couldn't utilise two crucial balls, which would cost them big. Kane Williamson turned to Rashid for the Super Over despite having Bhuvneshwar Kumar, but Hardik made light work of the target hitting a straight six first ball.
