Hats off to five-time IPL Champion team Mumbai Indians, for their remarkable recovery from the bottom of the points table to jump to the 3rd position. They have overcome their drawbacks quickly, especially after the return to form of our Jasprit Bumrah and the form of hitman Rohit Sharma and also the 360-degree player, Suryakumar Yadav.
It is also heartening to know that RCB too is progressing well to capture the top position in the points table, that too displacing the invincible Delhi Capitals.
At the same time, it is painful to see the plight of CSK, another 5-time Champion team, lagging at the bottom of the table and RR @ No.9. Of course, for this, they themselves should be blamed for discarding their performing players like Hazlewood and Jos Buttler. Anyway, as things stand, the remaining fixtures are going to be interesting as PBKS and LSG too are fighting for a playoff place.
Whether the washout loss of one point would be beneficial or bane for PBKS is to be seen. Hope to see an interesting innings, which are lined up for a mayhem.
