Five-time IPL champions Mumbai Indians lost their second game of the season as they failed to chase 194 in their 20 overs. Despite half-centuries from Ishan Kishan and Tilak Varma, MI could not finish on the right side. Meanwhile, Rajasthan became the only team to win both of its games while defending. After showing some batting masterclass, RR bowlers also put on a top performance to derail MI’s chase.
While Prasidh Krishna started the proceedings, Navdeep Saini finished it by dismissing Kieron Pollard. R Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, and Trent Boult also chipped in with crucial wickets. This shabby performance from Mumbai and sheer dominance from Rajasthan brought out some interesting reactions from fans on Twitter.

Atleast RCB matches are not this one sided they give us emotions even when target is 100 odd. #rcb #ViratKohli #FafDuPlessis #MIvRR
