IPL 2021: MI vs SRH, Match 9 Highlights: Sunrisers lose three on the trot as Mumbai register 13-run win

MI vs SRH, IPL 2021 Today's Match Live Updates and Highlights: Catch the IPL live score updates, toss, pitch report, playing 11 between Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai.

Kieron Pollard picked up the Man-of-the-Match award for his unbeaten 22-ball 35

Bengaluru, April 17: Bengaluru, April 17: Sunrisers Hyderabad’s miserable run continued as Mumbai Indians registered a comfortable 13-run win over SRH in match no. 9 of the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Saturday.

Playing at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, MI skipper Rohit Sharma opted to bat first and the MI openers gave the defending champions a strong start as they stitched together an opening stand of 55 off 41.

But following Rohit Sharma’s (32 off 25) dismissal the Mumbai innings slowed down and lost quick wickets.

As the Chennai pitch has proved this season, Mumbai struggled to get going there on, but a quickfire knock by Kieron Pollard in the end saw Mumbai reach a modest total. Though it would not look like it’s enough on the board, but the defending champs once again proved that they can defend small totals as they bowled out the Sunrisers for 137.

Much like their previous game, Mumbai looked like they would lose the encounter as SRH openers David Warner and Jonny Bairstow handed Sunrisers a flying start in the run chase. The duo stitched together 67 off 45 for the opening stand. But following Bairstow and Warner’s dismissal, the Sunrisers crumbled like a pack of cards.

Once again, Rahul Chahar impressed with the ball with a three-wicket haul, while Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Bould were at their lethal best.

With Saturday’s win, Mumbai have now won two matches on the trot after losing their opener, and Sunrisers have lost three on the trot. After Saturday’s game, the two sides are placed at two ends of the table.

While MI occupy the top spot with four points from three games, SRH are yet to open their account and lie at the bottom of the table, having lost all three games so far.

Here's how the MI vs SRH IPL match panned out.
