IPL 2023: PBKS defeat MI by 13 runs in high-scoring contest
Mumbai/IBNS: Punjab Kings pulled off a victory by 13 runs against Mumbai Indians in a high-scoring contest in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on Saturday.
Chasing 215, MI scored 201/6 in 20 overs.
MI were going strong for most part of their batting but regular fall of wickets towards the end denied them the victory.
Cameron Green (67 off 43 balls), Suryakumar Yadav (57 off 26 balls), Rohit Sharma (44 off 27 balls) kept the hosts in the hunt but their dismissals at different points of time turned out to be costly for MI.
Arshdeep Singh clinched four wickets for PBKS.
Earlier Sam Curran's aggressive 55 off 29 balls, Harpreet Singh's 41 off 28 balls and Jitesh Sharma's 25 off 7 balls powered PBKS to post 214/8 in 20 overs.
