Mumbai Indians posted their fourth consecutive win in the Indian Premier League [IPL] with a six-wicket victory over the Gujarat Lions at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday.
Chasing 177 to win, the Mumbai-based franchise got off to the worst possible start, losing Parthiv Patel without troubling the scorers.
The early wicket brought in young Nitish Rana to the crease and the left-handed batsman, who has showcased good form in this edition’s IPL, raced to a quick-fire half-century to put Mumbai in control of the match.
