Shocking!
Mumbai Indians suffered an embarrassing loss to Sunrisers Hyderabad chasing just 119 runs at the Wankhede Stadium. Furthermore, they lost by a massive margin by 31 runs! Only two of their batsmen scored double figures – Surya Kumar Yadav with 34 and Krunal Pandya scoring 24.
It is the second lowest total defended in IPL history, three runs behind Chennai Super Kings’ total of 116 against Kings XI Punjab back in 2009. Here are some of the reactions after the result!
“Victory comes from finding opportunities in problems “. Extremely proud of the #OrangeArmy for their stellar performance in defending 118. Kane led brilliantly and all the bowlers executed their plan to perfection. Super proud #MIvSRH

Easily Sunrisers's toughest, most significant win this season yet. Terrific bowling, fielding, superb captaincy in defending a paltry 118

You make 118, don't bat out 20 overs and win by 31. Even they wouldn't have thought this margin was possible. #SunrisersHyderabad. Performance of #IPL2018

Mumbai Indians have lost in a chase of 119 by 32 runs.
Not 1 or 2 or 3 runs. 32 runs.
Something to chew on.#IPL2018 #MIvSRH

One of the best bowling performances you'll see. Each bowler getting his A game to the field. Tough for a team to recover from this kind of loss #MIvSRH
