Bangalore had a good day in the office in their first game at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. The Bold Army defeated Mumbai by 8 wickets. Bangalore chased the target of 172 in 16.2 overs. The Bold Army were playing at home after a gap of three years. The crowd were in full attendance, and it was packed to the rafters at the stadium.

Virat Kohli made an unbeaten 82 off 49 balls to help Bangalore ace the chase against Mumbai

Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis were in roaring form. Kohli made a stunning unbeaten 82 off 49 balls with six fours and five sixes. Du Plessis made 73 off 43 balls with five fours and two sixes. Du Plessis was hitting boundaries in the initial phase and took the pressure off Kohli. Kohli, on the other hand, took his time. Once he got his eye in, he found his range and outscored du Plessis in the end.

In the first innings, Bangalore hit the right straps with the ball. Mumbai was rocked early and was 48-4 in 8.5 overs. Rohit Sharma made just 1 off 10 balls. Ishan Kishan perished to Mohammed Siraj after scoring 10 off 13 balls with two fours. Mumbai's big signing Cameron Green fell to Reece Topley for 5.

Suryakumar Yadav got out for a scratchy 15 off 16 balls with one four to Michael Bracewell. The hero for Mumbai was Tilak Varma. The left-hander made a sublime 84 off 46 balls with nine fours and four sixes. His innings made sure Mumbai got to 171-7 in their 20 overs. Mumbai was not able to draw the right plans with the ball. They were handicapped in Jasprit Bumrah's absence and could not get it right in Bangalore.
