Heinrich Klaasen stars as Sunrisers set new IPL record against Mumbai Indians

Travis Head gave the hosts an explosive start with 62 from 24 balls, Abhishek Sharma contributed 63 off 23 before Proteas batter Klaasen smashed 80 not out off 34, including seven maximums and four fours.

Aiden Makram's unbeaten 42 came with a strike rate of 150, which was the lowest of the four batters who made significant scores.

Sunrisers' total surpassed the previous best of 263 for five set by Royal Challengers Bangalore against Pune Warriors in 2013.

Mumbai made a good fist of the record run-chase and finished on 246-5 as the Sunrisers took the victory by a margin of 31 runs.

Tilak Verna struck 64 off 34 balls while Australian Tim David ended on an unbeaten 42 from 22 deliveries.

Sunrisers captain Pat Cummins was the best bowler on show in the run-fest with figures of 2-35 in his four overs.
