Several Bollywood celebrities were also in attendance at the iconic venue for the crucial knockout fixture. Veteran actor Anil Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Tripti Dimri, Ranbir Kapoor, and his wife and actress Alia Bhatt, along with their child Raha, were among those spotted in the stands. Sitting next to KL Rahul was his brother-in-law, actor Ahaan Shetty.
Five-time champions Mumbai Indians' owner Nita Ambani was also spotted cheering for Team India with members of her family - Akash Ambani, Shloka Mehta and Radhika Merchant.
The Men in Blue had a memorable outing with the bat, as Sanju Samson carried his form from the previous game against the West Indies and notched up a brilliant 42-ball 89 to provide his side with a fiery start. Ishan Kishan's powerful 39, Shivam Dube's 43, Tilak Varma's quick-fire seven-ball 21, and Hardik Pandya's 12-ball 27-run cameo helped the hosts put up a competitive 254-run total on the board.
