Pooran flips the chase

Nicholas Pooran changed the mood of the night in a handful of overs, taking MI London from a stuttering start to a cruise. After MI slipped to 13/2 in the powerplay, Pooran’s clean striking and Sam Curran’s calm accumulation stitched the chase back together and then blew it open. MI London finished 144/3 in 14 overs, sealing a seven-wicket win with 16 balls remaining.

Gleeson triggers the collapse

The match swung in Sunrisers Leeds’ middle overs, when a promising platform disintegrated. Leeds were 33/0 in the powerplay, but then lost six wickets for 76 through the middle phase, never regaining control of their innings. Richard Gleeson led the squeeze with 4/25 in 3.4 overs, turning a par-looking start into 143 all out in 16.3 overs and leaving the chase well within reach.

Curran anchors, Pooran detonates

Sam Curran’s 60 off 39 was the innings that gave MI structure after the early damage, ensuring the chase didn’t become a scramble. Pooran provided the knockout punch with a 58 off 22 at a strike rate of 264, turning the 93-run partnership into a decisive surge. For Leeds, Mitchell Marsh’s 41 off 27 was the lone sustained resistance, while Brydon Carse (2/18) briefly kept the chase honest before the stand took it away.

Market edge, but via chaos

Pre-match numbers only slightly favoured MI London, and the opening exchanges suggested why it was close: Leeds started faster, while MI’s top order stumbled early. What separated the sides was MI’s ability to create wicket clusters and then cash in on them. Once Leeds’ middle-order momentum vanished, the target became more about avoiding a chase wobble than chasing a big score — and MI’s best hitters had time to set up.
