IPL 2024 MI vs CSK Highlights: Chennai Sets 207-run Challenge
Chennai Super Kings, led by Rituraj Gaikwad, set a challenging target of 207 runs for Mumbai Indians to chase in the 29th match of the 17th IPL season. Shivam Dubey and Rituraj Gaikwad’s explosive batting propelled Chennai to a formidable total. Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s late cameo of 20 runs off 4 balls, including 3 sixes, in the final over boosted Chennai’s score.
Rohit Sharma‘s Century Goes in Vain
Despite Rohit Sharma’s valiant unbeaten century, Mumbai Indians fell short by 20 runs in their pursuit of Chennai’s target. Rohit’s spectacular knock of 105 runs off 63 balls, supported by Tilak Verma’s 31 runs, couldn’t compensate for the lack of substantial contributions from the rest of the Mumbai batting lineup. Ishan Kishan’s 23 runs and Tim David’s 13 runs were the only other notable contributions.
