Despite its top-order not firing, Mumbai has reaped the benefits of its lower-order batters’ valuable contributions.
One person who has done that effectively this year has been Tanush Kotian. The 25-year-old has bailed out the 41-time champion a few times this season, including in the semifinals against Tamil Nadu with an unbeaten 89.
He walked in at 211 for eight and put the game beyond TN with his chance-less knock. It shouldn’t come as a surprise, though, as the all-rounder said he has worked on his skills with a number in mind, taking off from where he left off last season.
