Titans score the 15 off one over after a 2nd rain break to win against MI and go top of the points table

- Rasesh Mandani

MUMBAI: A low-scoring match of fluctuating fortunes between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans for topping the points table provided the capacity crowd at the Wankhede Stadium their money's worth on Tuesday.

Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler were mostly circumspect in pursuit of their 156-run target with rain threatening. Except for a wayward Hardik Pandya over that was 11 balls long and went for 18 runs, there were no big overs, up until the 13th over. After Buttler's fall, Sherfane Rutherford as Impact Player reminded Will Jacks that he was just a part-time spinner. Swinging hard with the spin, Jacks was taken down for a 15-run over. In a low-scoring game, such overs make the difference.

But there was a quirk of fate in the form of a rain interruption that allowed MI to regroup at the 14-over mark. GT were still 49 runs away.
