However, with just five matches played in league till now, it would be mere speculation to predict anything on the basis of current points.

MI scored a total of 152 runs in 20 overs – which appeared to be an easy target to chase for KKR. However, MI restricted the Eoin Morgan-led team to 142 runs for 7 wickets in 20 overs.

Nitish Rana and Shubman Gill scored 57 and 33 runs respectively for KKR. But, spinner Rahul Chahar of Mumbai Indians made a mark by grabbing 4 wickets. He was also declared the player of the match.

KKR's co-owner Shah Rukh Khan took to Twitter to apologise to fans for KKR's 'disappointing performance'.
