AHMEDABAD, India (AP) — Mumbai Indians' losing streak in the Indian Premier League ended in stunning fashion after they bowled out Gujarat Titans for 100 on Monday.
Mumbai's 99-run win wasn't forecast. The Indians had lost four in a row, Rohit Sharma was still unfit, they picked two debutants, and were 44-3 in the powerplay.
But Tilak Varma's unbeaten 45-ball 101 — his maiden IPL century — gave his bowlers something to defend, and they defended 199-5 in rousing style.
Impact substitute and left-arm fast bowler Ashwani Kumar took 4-24, Mitchell Santner 2-16, and spinner Allah Ghazanfar 2-17.
Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya took a wicket each in the powerplay as Gujarat's stacked top order of Sai Sudharsan, captain Shubman Gill, Jos Buttler, Washington Sundar and Glenn Phillips were blown away inside eight overs and reduced to 55-5 on their home ground.
The Titans were all out inside 16 overs and their three-win streak was crushed.
“Ahmedabad has been a tough place for Mumbai Indians,” captain Pandya said. “We played some good cricket. Feels very special because (the win) was much needed.”
Left-hander Varma came into Mumbai's sixth game with a season-best score of 20.
Varma was 19 off 22 balls. Then he scored 82 off 23. He was especially aggressive in the last six overs. Varma smacked Ashok Sharma for 26 runs from three sixes and two fours in the 18th, and reached his hundred with a six and a four off Prasidh Krishna’s last two balls in the final over that went for 22.
“Last five games I haven't had much time in the middle. So this game I wanted to spend time in the middle,” Varma said. “So you saw the first 20 balls I was just batting ball by ball. Then later on I knew the ability I have. I was just seeing the situation and what the team needs and I was just stable and keeping my head still and following my basics. I have all the fancy shots.”
He's the first IPL batter to outscore the opposition since 2020 when Lokesh Rahul's 132 trumped Royal Challengers Bangalore's 109.
Varma finished with seven sixes and eight boundaries. Naman Dhir supported him with 45.
Gujarat never got any momentum after Bumrah finally got his first wicket in the sixth game when his first delivery was sent by Sudharsan straight to point.
The IPL's biggest win of the season by runs lifted Mumbai off the bottom of the table.

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 20, 2026--
Insigneo, an international wealth management firm, today announced a strategic partnership with Alius Capital Partners to establish a dedicated real estate vertical on its platform. Building on more than a year of joint due diligence work, the arrangement establishes a proactive approach to sourcing and delivering private property investment opportunities, spanning debt, preferred equity, and equity strategies, to Insigneo’s network of investment professionals and the clients they serve.

Rather than relying on reactive deal flow, Alius will proactively build and maintain a curated product shelf, structuring preferred terms and minimums, enabled by the collective scale of the Insigneo platform. For a client base with strong ties to Latin America, where private real estate carries consistent and significant demand among high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth investors, the partnership formalizes access at an institutional-grade standard.
“Our investment professionals and their clients have been asking for institutional-quality real estate solutions, and this is our answer,” said Mirko Joldzic, Head of Investment Solutions Group of Insigneo. “Alius brings the sourcing depth and due diligence discipline to make this a real, embedded resource for our network - and that is exactly the kind of capability that sets Insigneo apart.”
Alius Capital Partners was founded to bridge the gap between the institutional real estate market and the private wealth channel. The firm’s co-founders bring a transaction track record exceeding $2 billion across Starwood Capital Group, Palatine Capital Partners, CRC Companies, Aria Development Group, and Boston Properties, and will apply those same underwriting standards to opportunities sourced for the Insigneo platform.
“Our partnership with Insigneo is exactly what we built Alius to do,” said Alexander Feldman, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Alius Capital Partners. “By proactively sourcing and vetting opportunities, we can give Insigneo’s investment professionals and their clients consistent access to risk-adjusted real estate strategies that institutional investors have long relied on. We look forward to expanding this collaboration across Insigneo’s growing global network.”
The announcement reflects the broader momentum in wealth management toward private market alternatives. Insigneo has been systematically expanding its alternatives infrastructure, and the Alius partnership represents a significant addition to that buildout.
