Mumbai stuns Gujarat with a 99-run win after bowling out host for 100 in IPL

AHMEDABAD, India (AP) — Mumbai Indians’ losing streak in the Indian Premier League ended in stunning fashion after they bowled out Gujarat Titans for 100 on Monday.

Mumbai’s 99-run win wasn’t forecast. The Indians had lost four in a row, Rohit Sharma was still unfit, they picked two debutants, and were 44-3 in the powerplay.

But Tilak Varma’s unbeaten 45-ball 101 gave his bowlers something to defend, and they defended 199-5 in rousing style.

Left-arm fast bowler Ashwani Kumar and impact substitute took 4-24, Mitchell Santner 2-16, and spinner AM Ghazanfar 2-17.

Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya took a wicket each in the powerplay as Gujarat’s stacked top order of Sai Sudharsan, captain Shubman Gill, Jos Buttler, Washington Sundar and Glenn Phillips were blown away inside eight overs and reduced to 55-5 on their home ground.

The Titans were all out inside 16 overs and their three-win streak was crushed.
