8th consecutive victory for Mumbai Indians over Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL History |
It has been 1128 days since Kolkata Knight Riders last beat Mumbai Indians, and that streak could continue until 2019 after the visitors destroyed their hosts by 102 runs at Eden Gardens.
The result took Mumbai into the top four for the first time this IPL season, in firm contention for a playoff spot. KKR, on the other hand, slid to fifth after spending considerable time in the top half of the league.
Mumbai were powered by Ishan Kishan's blazing half-century before their bowlers applied an age-old tactic of bowling short to dismember the KKR batting line-up. Chasing 211, KKR were all out for their lowest total at home - 108; while Mumbai completed their second largest victory in terms of runs.
For the third year in a row, Mumbai beat KKR both home and away during the league phase of the IPL.
