MUMBAI: Cameron Green scored 100 from 47 balls for five-time champions Mumbai as they moved into the Indian Premier League play-off places by beating Hyderabad on Sunday.
Sunrisers made 200-5, with England’s Harry Brook out first ball in the penultimate over of their innings.
Unbeaten Green and Rohit Sharma, who was out for 56 from 37 balls, helped steer Mumbai to 201-2 and victory.
The result eliminated Rajasthan, who needed Mumbai and Bangalore to lose to stand a chance of progressing.
Hyderabad, who have finished bottom of the IPL, mainly had openers Mayank Agarwal and Vivrant Sharma to thank for reaching 200 as the pair put on 140 in 13.5 overs.
Mumbai, needing a win to have a chance of making it into the top four play-off spots, lost Ishan Kishan early before Sharma and Green put their side in control.
Green reached his 50 off just 20 balls and, in making his first IPL century, hit eight sixes and eight fours.
