Earlier in the day, SRH posted 200/5 after being asked to bat. Mayank Agarwal smashed 83 off 46, while Vivrant Sharma shone with 69 (47).

Akash Madhval starred with the ball for Mumbai, returning with figures of 4/37, while Chris Jordan took a solitary wicket.

With the win, MI also kept themselves alive in the race to IPL 2023 playoffs. They are currently placed fourth with 16 points in 14 games, but are dependent on rain and RCB’s loss if they want to reach the knockout matches.

Fans on Twitter reacted hilariously to Mumbai’s victory over Hyderabad amid a rain threat between RCB-GT. One user tweeted:
