IPL 2024: Match 25: Stats Review: Most fifties in a match and other stats from MI vs RCB

In Match no. 25 of IPL 2024, the Wankhede Stadium witnessed a run fest as Mumbai Indians chased down 197 with 27 balls to spare spiralling RCB to a fourth consecutive loss of the season. 

RCB were asked to bat first, and were reduced to 23/2 in the fourth over. However, Rajat Patidar (50 off 26) and skipper Faf du Plessis (61 off 40) put up 78 runs in a little less than 8 overs, but it was the final push by Dinesh Karthik (53* off 23) that took RCB to 196/8. And RCB might have had more if not for Player of the Match Jasprit Bumrah's brilliant 5/21 in four overs.

Whatever hope was left with RCB was then shattered by Suryakumar Yadav (52 off 19). Hardik Pandya (21* off 6) then applied the finishing touches.
