Mumbai... After 13 Years
The Mumbai Indians have finally broken free from the curse of losing their opening match—a streak that had haunted them in the IPL for over a decade. The team, which last won its opening match in 2012, went on to lose every single one of its subsequent 13 opening matches leading up to the previous season. However, this time around, they stormed to victory. Batting first, Kolkata posted a total of 220 runs for the loss of 4 wickets in 20 overs. Captain Ajinkya Rahane starred with the bat, scoring 67 runs off 40 balls, including 3 fours and 5 sixes. Shardul Thakur claimed 3 wickets. Chasing the target, Mumbai won by scoring 224 runs for the loss of 4 wickets in 19.1 overs.
