Mumbai Beats SRH; SRH's Win Over CSK Noted

Mumbai Indians moved into the IPL 2025 top four after a commanding seven-wicket victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad, successfully chasing a target of 144 with 26 balls remaining. Rohit Sharma led the charge with 70 off 46 balls, aided by Suryakumar Yadav's unbeaten 40 and Will Jacks' 22, while Trent Boult's four wickets crippled SRH's top order. Sunrisers Hyderabad, recovering from 35-5 through a 99-run partnership between Heinrich Klaasen (71) and Abhinav Manohar (43), finished at 143/8. The win marked Mumbai's fourth straight victory, boosting their playoff prospects and leaving SRH near the bottom of the table with faint postseason hopes. Earlier in the season, SRH had revived their campaign with a historic first win over Chennai Super Kings in Chennai, thanks to Kamindu Mendis' all-round performance and Harshal Patel's bowling. Despite that breakthrough, SRH have struggled to find consistent form against stronger teams.
