Mumbai Indians claim nine-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad

The Mumbai Indians ease to a nine-wicket win in their IPL clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad.

The Mumbai Indians have cruised to a nine-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in their IPL clash.

The hosts got their innings off to a terrible start when opener Shikhar Dhawan and captain David Warner were dismissed in successive balls, while Eoin Morgan added only nine runs before becoming the second victim for Mitchell McClenaghan (3-16).

Moises Henriques (11) and Lokesh Rahul (25) tried to steady the ship for the Sunrisers, but by the time both were back in the pavilion, Mumbai had reduced their opponents to 61-6.

Karn Sharma and Ashish Reddy provided runs down the order, but couldn't stay to the end as Hyderabad reached 91-9 and were in danger of posting a total that the bowlers couldn't defend. Dale Steyn's 19 runs off 11 balls gave the home side a glimmer of hope before they were all out for 113.

The Indians' reply began well as Lendl Simmons and Parthiv Patel imposed themselves at the crease to take the attack to the Hyderabad bowlers.

Mumbai raced past the 50-run mark in the eighth over and shortly after were bearing down on their victory target as they reached triple figures

Simmons was to fall for 48 when he was caught by Dhawan off the bowling of Sharma to end his 106-run partnership with Patel, but Rohit Sharma and Patel were able to guide their side to victory with 37 balls to spare.
