Mumbai limits Hyderabad batting powerhouse to notch 4-wicket win in IPL

MUMBAI, India (AP) — Mumbai Indians squeezed the batting powerhouse of Sunrisers Hyderabad on a sluggish home wicket to notch a four-wicket win in the Indian Premier League on Thursday.

Hyderabad struggled to reach 162-5 on a slowish Wankhede pitch and Mumbai, which won the toss and elected to field, eased to 166-6 with 11 balls to spare for their third win in seven games.

Abhishek Sharma, who scored a century in Hyderabad’s chase of 246 against Punjab Kings in the last game, top-scored with 40 after Will Jacks dropped him of the first ball in the slips.
