Cameron Green, Tilak Verma lead death over haul, MI reach 192/5
The 15th over looked like a sign of things to come, and clearly, it was. 14, 8, 20, 6, 14 — those were the tallies of the last 5 overs, yielding 62 runs, with Cameron Green and Tilak Verma throwing the kitchen sink at the pace, and Tim David joining the massacre in the dying stages of the innings.
50 runs in the early 5 overs, 21 off them in the 15th. After struggling through overs 11-14, with the odd boundary for relief, Verma took on Jansen to club him for 21 runs off the 15th over, marking the beginning of a potential onslaught. With 7 wickets remaining, Mumbai Indians looked to have the license to go bonkers at the death.
