40* Ravichandran Ashwin’s unbeaten match-winning knock-off of 23 balls is his highest in wins in the IPL. His previous top four scores - 50 vs Delhi in 2022, 45 vs Kolkata & 33 vs Bangalore in 2018, and 29 vs Sunrisers in 2016 were all in losing causes.
59 Yashasvi Jaiswal has posted his second-highest score in IPL and his third fifty. His highest remains 68 against Punjab at Wankhede Stadium on May 7.
THE SCENARIO
- GT finish on top with 20 points.
- RR and LSG are joint seconds on points at 18, but RR finish second due to a superior net run rate. LSG finish third.
- If DC win against MI, they will tie for fourth spot with RCB on 16 points and will qualify due to a better NRR.
- If MI beat DC, RCB finish sole fourth and qualify.
- The SRH-PBKS game is of no relevance to the playoff race with both sides being knocked out.
Rajasthan Royals entered the game against Chennai Super Kings with clear intent to snatch away the second berth from Luc know Super Giants. But CSK made it tough from them, almost choking them before Ravichandran Ashwin’s experience and calm nerves ensured Royals a five-wicket win at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Friday.
