Rashid Khan took 5-17 as MI London defeated Manchester Super Giants by 45 runs in The Hundred.
The Afghanistan spinner finished with the fifth-best figures in the history of the men’s competition as Super Giants failed to chase a challenging target of 184.
Scores of 62 off 31 balls from Will Jacks and 54 off 28 from Nicholas Pooran helped MI set up their formidable total at the Oval.
Jacks put on 71 for the first wicket with James Vince (29), hitting three fours and six sixes before he skied a catch to Aiden Markram off Noor Ahmad.
Pooran thrashed five fours and four sixes from number three to set up a final score of 183-6, finally falling to Josh Tongue (2-13) as three batters were dismissed from the last eight balls of the innings.
Needing quick runs, Super Giants captain Markram got his side off to a quick start, hitting 50 from 26 balls.
Rashid broke an opening partnership of 59, bowling Tim Seifert (17) and then having Jos Buttler caught in the deep for two.
Markram found Sam Curran at mid-wicket off Nathan Sowter before Rashid ripped through the middle order, removing Heinrich Klaasen, Tom Moores and Liam Dawson.
Wickets continued to tumble as Super Giants made a futile attempt to thrash their way to their target, with Sonny Baker the last to fall as the visitors were bowled out for 138 with five balls to spare.
Super Giants and MI were two of four teams on eight points at the start of the match, with the former in third and the latter in sixth based on their net run-rates.
The win moves MI up to second, above Welsh Fire on net run-rate, while Super Giants slip to fifth following their third successive defeat.
