New Delhi: Mumbai Indians registered their first win in IPL 2025 with an eight-wicket win over defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders, riding in debutant seamer Ashwani Kumar’s impressive debut in the tournament.
The left-arm seamer claimed 4/24 as Mumbai shot out KKR for only 116 in 16.2 overs after winning the toss and electing to bowl at the Wankhede Stadium.
The hosts then chased down their small target in 12.5 overs for their first win after two successive opening rounds defeats.
It was KKR’s second defeat in three matches, like Mumbai, and both teams are now placed at the bottom half of the table.
