Mumbai, India: Seamer Trent Boult and leg-spinner Yzvendra Chahal sank Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals cruised to victory in the Indian Premier League on Monday.
Boult took 3-22 and Chahal 3-11 to restrict Mumbai to 125-9.
Rajasthan knocked that off with 27 balls to spare, Riyan Parag scoring 54 not out as they won by six wickets at 127-4.
Unbeaten Rajasthan moved atop the league table while winless Mumbai lost a third straight match.
Put in to bat at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai was 20-4 in 3.3 overs. Boult struck twice in the first over, dismissing Rohit Sharma and Naman Dhir for first-ball ducks.
