Rohit hits 98 as MI post 168 for three in IPL opener
Sharma hammered four blistering sixes and 12 boundaries in his entertaining 65-ball 98 runs knock which helped his side post a competitive total on the scorecard.
Along with Corey Anderson (55), the Mumbai skipper joined to add 131 runs in the fourth wicket partnership as KKR bowlers struggled to break their partnership.
The KKR fielders looked slippery on the field as they missed several chances of breaking the partnership.
Mumbai Indians were initially struggling after losing three wickets of Aaron Finch (5), Aditya Tare (7) and Ambati Rayudu (0), with the scorecard reading 3-37.
Rohit Sharma and Corey Anderson helped in rebuilding the Mumbai innings and thus put up a formidable total after early debacle.
Morne Morkel picked up two wickets for KKR.
