Mumbai Indians, who lost eight matches in a row at the start of IPL 2022, registered their second successive win in the tournament as they beat Hardik Pandya's Gujarat Titans by just 5 runs.
The win was possible largely thanks to Daniel Sams, who gave just 3 off the last over. Titans required 9 off the last 6 balls and David Miller, Rashid Khan were at the crease.
But courtesy good fielding and superb death over bowling by Sams, MI were able to defend 177/6, which they had made in 20 overs after being put in to bat first.
Not to forget, Sams is the same bowler who had been pelted all over the park in the game vs Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) by Pat Cummins.
Take a look at how MI fans reaction to Sams's super spell:
