This match was particularly significant for Rohit Sharma as he achieved a remarkable milestone by becoming the first player to feature in 200 IPL matches for a single franchise, joining the elite company of Virat Kohli (Royal Challengers Bengaluru) and MS Dhoni (Chennai Super Kings), who have also reached the 200-game mark with their respective teams.

Rohit's consistent performances have solidified his status as one of the franchise's most iconic figures. With over 5,000 runs for Mumbai Indians, he stands as the all-time leading run-scorer for the team. His leadership has been instrumental in MI's success, having captained the team to five IPL titles, making him one of the most successful captains in the tournament's history.
