Abu Dhabi, October 28: Suryakumar Yadav's 79 off 43 balls powered Mumbai Indians to a five-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bangalore here at Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Wednesday.

The latter departed of the bowling of Mohammed Siraj after a spectacular full-length dive by Devdutt Padikkal at mid-off. MI vs RCB Stat Highlights Dream11 IPL 2020: Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav Smash New Records in Mumbai Indians’ 5-Wicket Win Over Royal Challengers Bangalore.
