PLAYER RATINGS

Evin Lewis – 1/10

A failure for the demolishing batsmen from the windies,getting out in the second over of the debutant Deepak Chahar.

Ishan Kishan – 7/10

Came in when Mumbai were under pressure after losing two early wickets,built a solid and quick partnership with Surya Kumar Yadav.

Rohit Sharma – 2/10

A rare failure for the Mumbai Captain,as the ball was swinging early on,perished playing a big shot.Losing from that position also questions his bowling changes.

Hardik Pandya – 9/10

Playing second fiddle to his brother Krunal,Hardik played a key role in Mumbai reaching a respectful 165 total.Picking up crucial wickets with his bowling also helped Mumbai.

The big man did not get to contribute with the bat or the ball, but was good throughout the match with his fielding in the deep.

A dream debut for leggie, getting Dhoni and Rayadu both to good googlies. A 3 wicket haul and a game to remember for him. Unfortunately,it was not enough for MI to win.
