IPL 2018: 5 best moments from the 1st week

#2 Mumbai provide the entertainment despite losing

Another slow start for the defending champions?

Mumbai Indians are famous for their slow starts to almost every season of IPL since 2013. It takes them a little time to adjust to the circumstances, and it is usually after their 4th match that they gain their form. This time, however, the case has been a little different. Yes, the Indians have lost their first 3 matches, but they have looked like a settled line up from the very beginning. Each match was a thrilling contest, with the result of each contest coming off the last bowl of the match.

It all began with a breath-taking opening clash with CSK, where a splendid knock by Dwayne Bravo and some awesome finishing skills by Kedar Jadhav, where he hit 10 runs in the last two balls, handed them a 1-wicket loss.

A similar thing happened during the clash with SRH, with some exceptional batting by Deepak Hooda taking SRH to a 1-wicket victory. Against DD, it was Jason Roy's turn to finish the match off the last bowl as he chipped over the cover area to hand MI their 3rd consecutive loss off the last bowl.
