IPL 2023 Orange Cap and Purple Cap standings after Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals match (Updated) 

The Mumbai Indians (MI) secured a six-wicket win over the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) after a thrilling run chase at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday, April 30.

RR won the toss in the 1000th IPL game and decided to bat first. Yashasvi Jaiswal was the aggressor up front after Jos Buttler struggled upfront, taking eight balls to get off the mark.

MI struck at regular intervals to dismiss the likes of Sanju Samson and Buttler, but could not get the better of Jaiswal. The young opener registered his maiden IPL century and his splendid knock helped RR put on a mammoth score of 212/7 in 20 overs.

The home side lost the wicket of Rohit Sharma early in the run chase in a controversial manner, while Ishan Kishan played a scratchy knock. Cameron Green looked promising during his stay at the crease but lost his wicket at a crucial juncture of the run chase.

Suryakumar Yadav scored his second fifty of the campaign to keep MI in the hunt. While he could not finish the job, the duo of Tilak Varma and Tim David took the run chase forward in the death overs.

RR could not cope with the Australian all-rounder's big-hitting skills in the final over as he struck three consecutive sixes to seal the contest for MI in the 20th over. He remained unbeaten on 45 off just 14 deliveries as a 200-run plus target was breached for the first time in history at the Wankhede Stadium.
