That out to have been a match-defining catch in favour of Kings XI Punjab at Mumbai Indians’ home ground, the Wankhede, here on Thursday. Mumbai Indians, faced with a victory target of 231, were 99/1 in 8.4 overs when Simmons fell for a breezy 59 (32b). Three more wickets for almost next to nothing including that of Rohit Sharma, who fell yet again to a leg-spinner, did not help Mumbai Indians’ cause if they were to win and take the winning momentum going into the Play-offs. Mumbai Indians were set a target that no team has chased successfully ever before in 10 seasons of IPL. For the second game in a row, KXIP bowlers complemented their batsmen admirably, making it difficult for MI to chase down.
