Only Shardul Thakur could fight, Mumbai lost cheaply
Mumbai won the toss and chose to bat first, but their top order was blown away in no time. Star batsmen fell to the ground in front of Jammu and Kashmir’s Aaqib Nabi and Umar Nazir. Yashasvi Jaiswal (4), Rohit (3) and Hardik Tamore (7) could not even reach double figures. At the same time, Ajinkya Rahane (12) and Shreyas Iyer (11) also could not do anything special. And when Mumbai’s score reached 47 for just 7 wickets, everyone was talking about whether the host team would be able to touch the hundred mark or not? But Thakur along with Tanush Kotian (26) gave Mumbai a score of 120. The last two batsmen Mohit Awasthi and Karsh Kothari also could not open the account. Umar Nazir and Yudhveer Singh took four wickets each, while Aaqib Nabi took two wickets.
