Live Cricket Score, IPL 2019 MI vs CSK: Hardik Pandya was the star as Mumbai Indians ended Chennai Super Kings' winning streak in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2019 with a 37-run win on Wednesday.
The title holders made a poor start in the run chase by losing their top three batsmen Shane Watson, Ambati Rayudu and Suresh Raina within the power play period. Kedar Jadhav (58 in 54 balls) and skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni (12) repaired the damage with a stand of 54.
Hardik struck big by having Dhoni caught at square leg and then sent back Ravindra Jadeja, too, in the same over to reduce Chennai to 89 for five in the 15th over. The dismissals of Jadhav and Dwayne Bravo in quick succession ended the slim hopes of the visitors.
