Mumbai Indians have taken the top spot in the Indian Premier League points table after crushing Kolkata Knight Riders by 49 runs on Wednesday in their second match of the season at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. Rohit Sharma scored 80 runs to power MI to a score of 195 while batting first. Then they defended the total well and restricted KKR to just146 runs. With that win, they grabbed two points from two games and toppled Rajasthan Royals from the top spot due to a better Net Run Rate.
