Mumbai Indians registered their first win in the IPL 2024 as they defeated Delhi Capitals by 29 runs. The hosts posted a huge total of 234 for 5 against Delhi Capitals while put into bat first.

Rohit Sharma provided a flying start, scoring 49 off 27 balls and also added 80 for the opening stand in just 7 overs with another opener Ishan Kishan (42 off 23 balls), while Hardik Pandya (39 off 33 balls) and Tim David (45 not out off 21 balls) also contributed well at the back-end. But it was Romario Shepherd who turned the table as he smashed 39 off 10 balls, taking Mumbai Indians to a mountain of runs.

In reply, Prithvi Shaw and Tristan Stubbs smashed quickfire half-centuries alongside Abishek Porel’s 41 but they weren’t enough to take Delhi Capitals to the finish line as well.
