IPL Points Table 2019, Standings, ranking, orange cap, purple cap after MI vs CSK

Mumbai Indians inflicted Chennai Super Kings’ first defeat in IPL 2019 as they outclassed the defending champions by 37 runs on Wednesday at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. “I think quite a few things went wrong for us. We started well, were right on the mark for the first 10-12 overs. Then, a few catches were dropped, a few misfields, the death overs bowling wasn’t great. We don’t have bowlers who hit the deck, it was slightly tough on them. We do have one-on-one plans, we needed to know where we could cut-off the boundaries, which batsmen to target,a boundary less or two could have made a difference to a 10-12 run over or a 7-run over,” said Dhoni after the defeat.
