Mumbai: Sarfaraz Khan’s Aakash Tigers Mumbai Western Suburbs rode on a disciplined all-round performance to register a clinical 66-run victory over Shreyas Iyer’s SOBO Mumbai Falcons in a league match of the ongoing T20 Mumbai League 2026 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Tuesday.

Banking on blistering half-centuries from Jay Bista and Ajit Yadav, the Tigers first piled up a massive 227/6 in their 20 overs before Shashank Attarde and Shams Mulani led the demolition act with the ball to bundle out the Falcons for 161 in 17.5 overs and seal a comprehensive win.

Chasing the daunting target, the Falcons were off to a solid start with opener Ishan Mulchandani (40 off 15) taking the attack to the Tigers from the outset. Attacking right from the start, Ishan dominated the 33-run opening partnership with Aditya Tare (1), scoring the bulk of the runs and putting the Tigers on the back foot.

However, the momentum shifted once Shams Mulani (3/47) dismissed Tare in the third over. Falcons then suffered a dramatic collapse, losing four more wickets for another 46 runs as off-spinner Shashank Attarde (4/33) spun a web and rattled the top and middle order. Attarde also accounted for newly-appointed India T20I captain Shreyas Iyer, who could manage 10, which left the Falcons reeling at 79/5.
