Mumbai Indians are the most successful side in tournament's history, with five titles under their belt. Every season they enter the competition as big favorites and they are the team to beat.
Apart from KL Rahul, Chris Gayle also played a crucial knock as he scored an unbeaten 43 off 35, that too playing against his nature. While Rahul smashed three sixes during his knock, Gayle cleared the fence just once.
Earlier, Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma scored 63 off 52 balls but the failure of their middle-order cost them yet another match as they managed only 131 for six from their 20 overs.
After beating Mumbai Indians, Punjab Kings climbed to the fifth spot on the IPL 2021 Points Table, with two wins from three matches. The defending champion, despite suffering their third loss of the season, remained on the fourth spot, thanks to their slightly superior net run-rate.
