Former Australian cricketer Matthew Hayden lauded Rohit Sharma's "well-measured" knock of 70 against Sunrisers Hyderabad and said the opener's innings had "vision, stability, and perfect timing."

After restricting SRH to 143-8, MI's chase was without any major hiccups as Rohit guided his team to victory for a second successive match with 70 off 46 balls and MI secured victory with 4.2 overs to spare.

"It was an excellent, well-measured innings. There was power, but more than anything, it was about his tempo. He knew he had a moderate total to chase. When you look at the seven-wicket victory, the Mumbai Indians had plenty in the tank. Rohit's innings had vision, stability, and perfect timing. It made the rest of the team rocket ahead," Hayden told JioHotstar.
