Ajit Chouhan’s return from injury added much needed depth and versatility, setting a winning tone for the leg.
The Mumbai side’s momentum was unrelenting, as just one day later they dispatched Gujarat Titans 40-25.

This display of fitness, hunger, and teamwork sent a clear signal to rivals that U Mumba’s aggressive approach and unity make them strong playoff contenders this season.
“Last 4 matches I’ve been able to perform well & it’s only possible because of the support from the team, captain, and coach who always say, ‘You go and raid without any worry, we’re always backing you from the line.’ Even if I get caught, they never let it bother them, they always encourage me to keep raiding boldly, and that’s why I can give my best.” Raider Sandeep Kumar in the post match conference.
