Sports, April 08: Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya shared a heartwarming moment after Mumbai Indians secured their first win in IPL 2024.
After suffering three consecutive losses, Mumbai Indians clinched a thrilling victory against Delhi Capitals at Wankhede Stadium. Romario Shepherd’s explosive batting performance played a pivotal role in Mumbai’s success.
Batting first, Mumbai got off to a flying start with Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma’s formidable partnership. Despite setbacks from Axar Patel and Anrich Nortje, Tim David and Shepherd’s late onslaught propelled Mumbai to a formidable total of 234/5.
In response, Prithvi Shaw and Tristan Stubbs showcased exceptional batting for the Delhi Capitals. However, a middle-order collapse, triggered by Gerald Coetzee, restricted Delhi to 205/8.
That feeling of your first win of the season 😀
