The thrills are high, and excitement is touching the sky as the Mullanpur crowd is enjoying the high-voltage Eliminator clash between the Gujarat Titans and the Mumbai Indians. Both sides are crossing swords hard, aiming for the Qualifier 2 stage.

While facing the Shubman Gill and Co., MI unleashed their best mode as the opening batters took the game to another level. Their openers smashed the bowlers all over the park in the initial six overs, driving Mumbai to the third-highest powerplay score in IPL playoffs history.

MI’s Powerplay Thunderstorm

Eyeing their sixth IPL trophy, the Mumbai Indians made a strong bounce back in the ongoing IPL season and secured their place in the Eliminator. Against Gujarat Titans, English star Jonny Bairstow and Rohit Sharma lit up the pitch with a blazing opening assault, setting the stage on fire from the very first ball.

While batting first, they started the first over a little slow, then the opening duo took the charge in the second over. After getting a lifeline in the fifth ball of the second over, Rohit Sharma went berserk. With big hits raining down, the pair seized control of the game, putting their team firmly in the driver’s seat.

After smashing 79 runs in the powerplay, the Mumbai Indians scripted history. With that exceptional display, they registered the third-highest powerplay scored in IPL. The record books still crown CSK’s explosive 100-run blitz against PBKS in the 2014 Qualifier 2 as the ultimate powerplay masterpiece.
