IVPL 2024: Thisara Perera's fifty helps Red Carpet Delhi beat Mumbai Champions by 5 wickets

Thisara Perera’s explosive innings led Red Carpet Delhi to a five-wicket victory over Mumbai Champions in the eighth match of the Indian Veteran Premier League (IVPL) in Greater Noida. Mumbai scored 139/8, but Red Carpet chased it down with ease, with Perera named Player of the Match.

Mumbai Champions struggled early, losing wickets at regular intervals before reaching 139/8. Red Carpet Delhi stumbled at the start but recovered thanks to a powerful partnership between Richard Levi and Asela Gunaratne, ultimately securing the win with 32 balls to spare.

Despite losing key players, Red Carpet Delhi controlled the chase and cruised to victory. The team will face Rajasthan Legends next, while Mumbai Champions will take on VVIP Uttar Pradesh in their upcoming match in the IVPL.
