Mumbai Indians (MI), from the third position, managed to gain the top spot back in the 2020 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Rohit Sharma didn’t play the game, but despite his absence, the team displayed their A-game against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Friday, October 23.

At the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, MI, captained by West Indies skipper Kieron Pollard, won by 10 wickets. After electing to bowl first, Mumbai got the Yellow Army on the mat right from the word go. In the powerplay, CSK lost five wickets and MI didn’t allow them to get a foothold back into the contest.
