Jacks’ all-round brilliance included two crucial wickets and a quickfire 36 runs with the bat. Abhishek Sharma (40) and Heinrich Klaasen (37) also made valuable contributions to SRH’s total. Mumbai’s bowling attack, featuring Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah, and Hardik Pandya (each claiming a wicket), kept a tight rein on the scoring rate at various points in the innings.
