Mumbai, Apr 30: An unbeaten 62-run partnership between middle-order batters Tilak Varma (29 not out) and Tim David (45 not out), coupled with a half-century by Suryakumar Yadav (55), helped Mumbai Indians defeat Rajasthan Royals by six wickets in an Indian Premier League match here on Sunday.
Mumbai Indians chased down the target of 213 with three balls to spare, reaching 214 for 4 in 19.3 overs.
