IPL 2019, MI vs RR: Jos Buttler 89 guides Rajasthan Royals to their second win of the season

Jos Buttler laid the platform with a rampaging 89 while Shreyas Gopal held his nerve at the death to power Rajasthan Royals to a four-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians in an IPL. 

This was Royals' second victory of the season in seven games after losing a last-ball thriller to CSK less than 48 hours back.

Put into bat, Mumbai Indians rode on an aggressive 81 by South African Quinton De Kock to post an imposing 187/5.

Buttler's 43-ball knock studded with eight fours and seven sixes set the tone before Royals survived a scare to finish the game in 19.3 overs.

Mumbai did make a comeback of sorts sending four batsmen -- Samson, Rahul Tripathi (1), Steve Smith (12 ) and Liam Livingstone (1) -- back to the pavilion as Rajasthan slumped to 174.6 from 147/2.

However, Shreyas Gopal (13 not out) and K Gowtham (0 not out) held their nerves to take the side home in a tense situation.
