IPL 2018, MI vs RR: Hits and Misses

Modified May 14, 2018 00:40 IST

Another unbeaten 90+ score from Buttler took RR to their fifth win of the season.

#3 Hit: Evin Lewis

Evin Lewis was MI's top-scorer in this game.

Evin Lewis has been in scratchy form this season. He hasn’t quite hit his straps and hasn’t been able to give MI the starts they were expecting. However, the West Indian opener did well in this game as he was one of the few MI batsmen who put his hand up and got a substantial score.

Lewis started his innings with a bang as he struck a beautifully timed boundary. But he was a touch watchful at the start but really opened his shoulders once he got his eye in. After the first five overs, Lewis was batting on 14 off 13 balls but he slowly shifted gears once he assessed the conditions.

The 27-year-old opener struck a very good 60 (off 42 balls) and gave MI a very good start.
