IPL 2025: Rohit smashes 70 as Mumbai Indians register seven-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad

Story highlights

Cricket, Sports: Deepak Chahar (2/12) and Trent Boult (4/26) rattled SRH in their opening spells as Pat Cummins' side were reduced to 13/4 in fifth over of the innings

Rohit Sharma flexed his muscles as he scored his second successive half-century and formed a 53-run partnership with Suryakumar Yadav, who remained unbeaten on 40 as Mumbai Indians beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by seven wickets in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League on Wednesday (April 23).

Chasing a below-par 143 for 8, built on the efforts of Heinrich Klaasen efforts (71 off 44 balls) and his 99-run stand with Abhinav Manohar (43 off 37 balls), Rohit was in phenomenal form as he hit 70 off 46 deliveries to bring a swift end to the home team's misery in 15.4 overs.

Earlier in the innings, Deepak Chahar and Trent Boult ran riot as Mumbai Indians restricted Sunrisers Hyderabad to 143/8.

Chahar (2/12) and Boult (4/26) castled SRH in their opening spells as Pat Cummins' side were reduced to 13/4 in the fifth over before Heinrich Klaasen's 71 off 44 balls and his 99-run stand with Abhinav Manohar (43 off 37 balls) restored some pride.

Interestingly, all the four SRH top-order batters -- openers Travis Head (0) and Abhishek Sharma (8), Ishan Kishan (1) and Nitish Kumar Reddy (2) -- were dismissed in single digits as the team could manage just 24 runs by end of the powerplay.

Watch Ishan Kishan's brain fade moment here:

Boult was MI's top wicket-taker with 4/26 in four overs. Deepak also picked 2/12 in four overs. Pandya and Bumrah got a wicket each.
