In the seventh match of the ongoing 11th season of Indian Premier League (IPL), Kane Williamson led SunRisers Hyderabad defeated Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians in a thriller by one wicket.
Here is the stats review of the thriller match:
1- Afgan teenage sensation, Rashid Khan, bowled 18 dot balls in his four overs on Thursday and that is joint-most by a spinner in an IPL match.
2- There are only two cricketers who have taken four wickets in an IPL match at a younger age than Markande. First one is Pawan Negi (19 years 116 days) and second is Mitchell Marsh (19 years 202 days).
3- Mayank Markande had become the second highest wicket-taker in his first two matches of IPL. He had taken seven wickets in two matches. Only Adam Zampa has taken more wickets than Mayank. Zampa took eight wickets in the 9th edition of IPL while playing for Rising Pune Supergiant.
4- There are only three teams in the history of IPL which had more wins than losses against Mumbai Indians in the cash-rich league — SunRisers Hyderabad (6 wins, 5 losses), Rising Pune Supergiant (4 wins, 2 losses) and Kochi Tuskers Kerala (1 win).
5- Only three times, including the on-going and last 10 seasons, IPL teams had won the match by one wicket. On two occasions, MI have been at the receiving end of losing the match — against Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2018.
6- Till now, only one team (SRH against MI) has won a match with one wicket and only a ball to spare in the game.
