Ishant bowled only a couple of overs in the game but was clocking in 140 kph and did well. On a wicket where the slower balls and the cutters were working, the Titans' four-pronged pace attack made a great assessment of the wicket and proved to be too good for the Mumbai Indians batters, who were chasing a high score of 197 and fell 36 short of it. The Titans opened their account after going down against the Punjab Kings in the first game while the Mumbai Indians have lost two on the trot now.
