Rahul Chahar gets rid of Shikhar Dhawan as he attempts to slam a big one. Dhawan mistimed it and Krunal Pandya was standing right there in the deep to take that stunning catch. Dhawan OUT on 45 runs. 

20 Apr, 22:23 (IST)

Just when we thought that Steve Smith could remain unbeaten in the game, in came Keiron Pollard who got rid of the Australian. Bowls in line and length and that hits the leg stumps. Smith LBW on 33.

20 Apr, 22:02 (IST)

20 Apr, 21:05 (IST)

OUT! Ishan Kishan chops the ball into his own stumps and Mumbai Indians have lost their seventh wicket. Mishra bowls a wide yorker and Ishan defends it but the ball directly on the bails and Ishan is dismissed. Ishan Kishan b Mishra 26(28)

20 Apr, 20:35 (IST)

OUT! Amit Mishra is on a roll here. The spin wizard has picked his third wicket after trapping Kieron Pollard plumb in front of the wicket. Pollard fails to read the wrong'un and is caught LBW. Pollard lbw b Mishra 2(5)

20 Apr, 20:28 (IST)

OUT! Suryakumar Yadav nicks one to Rishabh Pant and has to go back. He was perhaps foxed by the bounce of the ball. Tries to play it late to the third man but only manages to edge the ball back to the wicket-keeper. Suryakumar Yadav c Pant b Avesh Khan 24(15)

20 Apr, 20:02 (IST)

Rishabh Pant’s side also will be playing for the first time at the Chepauk this season. They started their IPL 2021 campaign in Mumbai. The champions, however, have already played thrice at the MA Chidambaram Stadium and are already familiar with the conditions. Both teams could drop a paceman for an additional spinner on the slow and spinning pitch of Chennai. Five of the six matches in IPL 2021 at this venue have been won by teams batting first so the toss becomes crucial.
