SRH innings
Sunrisers Hyderabad were bowled out for 118 by a dominant Mumbai Indians bowling attack in the 23rd match of the Indian Premier League here on Tuesday.
A struggling Dhawan (5 runs) was the first to depart, soon after which Wriddhiman Saha (0) followed in the same over as Mitchell McClenaghan struck early.
The hosts never allowed SRH to build a partnership as Manish Pandey (16) and Shakib al Hasan (2) too walked back to the pavilion.
Matters went from bad to worse as captain Kane Williamson was dismissed by Hardik Pandya for 29, ending all hopes of an SRH comeback.
This was followed by the wickets of Mohammed Nabi (14) and Rashid Khan (6) taken by Mayank Markande and Jasprit Bumrah respectively.
After Williamson’s wicket, the only hope was that of Yusuf Pathan, who scored 29 runs.

Preview
Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians (MI) will host Kane Williamson’s Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the 23rd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) with a hope of turning things around in the tournament.
Both teams suffered a similar fate in their previous IPL encounters. While MI suffered a heartbreaking three-wicket loss to Rajasthan Royals (RR), SRH fell short of the target by four runs, losing to MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings (CSK).
MI will have a lot to worry about after having narrowly lost the first three matches, games which they should have won.
Despite the knock of 94 against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Rohit Sharma has not had a successful tournament for him personally, having failed to post a big total otherwise.
Despite Suryakumar Yadav (72) and Ishan Kishan (58) producing good performance vs RR, the defending champions went down as they gave away a lot of runs in the final overs.
Meanwhile, Kane Williamson’s knock of 84 suffered a similar fate as the hosts fell short by four runs.

The match is scheduled to start at 8 P.M. IST on Tuesday (April 24).
