Outperforming the Sunrisers Hyderabad at their own den has never been easy for any bowling attack. But the Mumbai Indians showed the tremendous application in their bowling defending a low total as Alzarri Joseph made his IPL debut.

Not only did he get the breakthrough by picking the wicket of in-form David Warner, but he also ran through the untested SRH middle order and registered the best bowling figures ever for IPL (3.4-1-12-6).

He has proved his potential already and the Mumbai Indians would be hoping to see more performances like this in the coming matches!

#8 Green kit does not change fortunes for RCB

Every year in the IPL, the Royal Challengers Bangalore have a special initiative called ‘RCB goes green’ where they sport a green kit to spread environmental awareness.

More than that, the green kit is also known to have produced some iconic memories for the RCB in the past. They sure would have hoped to turn the fortunes around with their lucky green kit.

Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case for them as they lost six games in a row. Skipper Kohli was again the lone warrior as they set a target of 150 for the Delhi Capitals. Shreyas Iyer played a captain’s knock scoring 67 off just 50 balls guiding the team to victory by four wickets.

#9 KKR rise to the top of the Points Table

Seems like the ‘Royal’ teams in this IPL are not playing as per the expectations as the Rajasthan Royals were outplayed by the Knight Riders quite convincingly.

Losing at their home ground makes the coming matches more complicated for them. On a typical slow Jaipur surface, the Rajasthan Royals managed to score only 140 against a team that is filled with explosive batsmen including Andre Russell.

The devastating opening duo of Lynn and Narine proved to be perfect for the Knight Riders as they dominated the bowlers way too early in the innings and the Royals didn’t get a chance to create a shift in momentum.
