Mumbai Indians vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Highlights And Cricket Score 7th Match - T20 Commentary

End of Over : 20.0 MI: 187/8

Yuzvendra Chahal who is up for an interview starts by saying the wicket is very good to bat on. Mentions you need to vary your pace on it and he tried doing so. Further adds he is used to going for runs but he still tries to bowl the best ball and he always looks for wickets. Ends by saying the total is a good one and it is not easy to contain.

Bangalore won't be too disheartened seeing the score on the board. It is the Chinnaswamy and with the dew to play its part and the kind of firepower they have in their ranks, they will back themselves to gun this down. However, as it has been seen over the years, their batting order does tend to collapse out of nowhere. Will be an interesting second half as Mumbai have some quality bowlers.

Bangalore did bowl well for the most part. Started well decently, did well in the middle overs and post Yuvraj's dismissal, scalped more wickets in clumps. It was just their death bowling which let them down. Chahal starred with his 4-wicket haul, though he did go for a fair few runs. Siraj and Umesh bagged 2 each to their name.

Hardik Pandya's late flurry has put Mumbai in a good position come the end of the innings. 30 runs came in the last two overs which provided the visitors the momentum they so desperately needed. The innings largely revolved around skipper Rohit, he was in good touch and looked set for a big one, but was dismissed against the run of play. Yuvraj too was going great guns, but got dismissed after hitting Chahal for three sixes in a row. Post that, the wickets kept falling and Bangalore creeped their way back, but Hardik's late cameo ensured they at least have what is considered as a par score at the Chinnaswamy.

19.6 1

Mohammed Siraj to Hardik Pandya. Extremely full and well outside off, Hardik drills it through cover-point. Sweeper cover comes across to his left and keeps the batsmen to just the one. MUMBAI FINISH ON 187/8!

19.5 6

Mohammed Siraj to Hardik Pandya. SIX! Take a bow, Hardik Pandya. This is superb. Superb. He stands deep inside his crease, it's bowled full again, but due to his starting position he's able to get under the ball and slog it over mid-wicket for a biggie.

19.4 0

Mohammed Siraj to Hardik Pandya. Leading edge which lands safely. Full delivery curling back in, Hardik looks to whip it away on the leg side but it pops off the leading edge and falls safely in the covers.

19.4 wd

Mohammed Siraj to Hardik Pandya. Wide! Slower short ball just around off, Hardik swings and misses. Was high, the batsman was looking for a wide, and got it too.

19.3 6

Mohammed Siraj to Hardik Pandya. SIX! Hardik Pandya giving his side a late impetus here. This is exceptional hitting. Full ball and it's right in his slot, he stands his ground and tonks it over the long on fence for a maximum.

19.2 1

Mohammed Siraj to Jasprit Bumrah. Not out! Bumrah survives. Clearly going down leg. Full ball and it catches Bumrah low on the pads as he misses his flick shot. It rolls away on the leg side and the batsmen take a run. Bangalore review it but much to their dismay, replays don't rule it in their favour. A leg bye is signalled.

The DRS has been taken. It's for an lbw decision against Bumrah and Bangalore have referred it upstairs.

Jasprit Bumrah in next for Mumbai.

19.1 W

Mohammed Siraj to Mayank Markande. OUT! Eventually, he's given out caught behind. Length ball cutting in off the deck, Markande tries to run it down to third man with an open face but the ball seemingly goes off the inside edge. The batsmen cross over and there is an appeal for a run out as well, but it's caught behind. Hardik won't be on strike for the next ball.

End of Over : 19 15 Runs MI: 172/7
18.6 0

Navdeep Saini to Hardik Pandya. Excellent delivery to end the over. Yorker just outside off, Hardik can only play it back to the bowler. 15 runs off it, though Mumbai will feel they could have had more.

18.5 1

Navdeep Saini to Mayank Markande. Full delivery attacking the stumps, Markande puts bat on ball, places it towards mid on and scrambles to the other end.

18.4 1

Navdeep Saini to Hardik Pandya. Good ball on the Free Hit from Saini. It's a yorker outside off, the batter drills it through the off side for a run.

18.4 3

Navdeep Saini to Hardik Pandya. No ball! Too high from Saini. The full toss is above waist height, Hardik swings and gets a top edge which skies on the leg side. The keeper comes under it but fails to catch it. The batsmen take two runs. Free Hit coming up on the next delivery...

18.3 6

Navdeep Saini to Hardik Pandya. SIX! That's gone a looooooonnnnnggggggg waaaaayyyyy! Hardik Pandya makes the sweetest of connections when he dispatches this. Short of a good length on the stumps, the Mumbai all-rounder stands his ground and muscles the pull deep into the mid-wicket stands.

18.2 0

Navdeep Saini to Hardik Pandya. Back of a length on the fifth stump line, Hardik swings hard across the line but fails to make any sort of connection.

18.1 4

Navdeep Saini to Hardik Pandya. FOUR! And Hardik goes bang! Full toss on off stump, the younger Pandya, with an absolutely straight bat, hammers it straight over the bowler's head, bisecting the two men out in the deep. He holds the pose for the cameras too.

End of Over : 18 10 Runs MI: 157/7
17.6 0

Mohammed Siraj to Mayank Markande. Good length delivery on off, Mayank guides it towards point. Pandya does not take a run. A wicket did come from the over but 10 runs was scored of it.

17.5 1

Mohammed Siraj to Hardik Pandya. On the fuller side, Pandya strokes it down to long off and takes a run.

17.4 4

Mohammed Siraj to Hardik Pandya. FOUR! Pandya now gets off the mark in style! What a shot that is. He shuffles right across tempting the batsman to bowl on his pads. Siraj falls for the trap as he does so. Pandya flicks it through square leg and a boundary results.

17.3 1

Mohammed Siraj to Mayank Markande. Does the right thing now and guides it down to third man for a single. Gets Hardik on strike.

17.2 4

Mohammed Siraj to Mayank Markande. FOUR! Off the mark in style and these are handy runs for the visitors. On the pads and Markande works it through square leg. It is in the gap and it races to the fence for a boundary.

Mayank Markande is the new man in.

17.1 W

Mohammed Siraj to Mitchell McClenaghan. OUT! Another one bites the dust! McClenaghan has played it on and now Bangalore are into the bowlers. This is bowled outside off and it is on a length. MM goes after it away from his body but only manages an inside edge onto the stumps.

Mohammed Siraj is back into the attack.

End of Over : 17 2 Runs MI: 147/6
16.6 1

Umesh Yadav to Mitchell McClenaghan. On the shorter side, McClenaghan pulls it through square leg and keeps strike. Bangalore won't mind that. Back-to-back good overs for the hosts, 2 and a wicket from this one. 8 and three wickets from the last two.

16.5 0

Umesh Yadav to Mitchell McClenaghan. Another dot as Mitchell plays it with an opened face bat to point.

16.4 0

Umesh Yadav to Mitchell McClenaghan. Back of a length on off, MM guides it to point.

Mitchell McClenaghan to be the new batsman in.

16.3 W

Umesh Yadav to Krunal Pandya. OUT! Another Mumbai wicket down! Bangalore slowly rising on top of the game here. Umesh bangs it in short and down leg, Krunal pulls this away. Doesn't get enough height on it as Saini out in the deep leaps and takes it just inside the rope at fine leg. The umpire checks upstairs whether his foot touched the rope and also if Umesh overstepped his line, and it's fine on both accounts. The elder Pandya has to depart.

16.2 1

Umesh Yadav to Hardik Pandya. Full in length, quite close to off again, Hardik looks to flick but gets a leading edge square on the off side. Krunal only wanted one, but Hardik took off for the second. Fortunately, the throw came in at the keeper's end and he had enough time to go back. The batsmen get a single.

16.1 0

Umesh Yadav to Hardik Pandya. Good length delivery around the off stump channel, Hardik defends it from inside the crease.

Hardik Pandya to bat next. Also, Umesh Yadav back on to bowl.

End of Over : 16 6 Runs MI: 145/5
15.6 W

Yuzvendra Chahal to Kieron Pollard. OUT! Second in the over for Chahal and he gets rid of the dangerous Pollard. Finishes with a four-fer does the leggie. Half the side in the hut for the visitors and they seem to be losing their way a little. Once again great courage shown by Chahal as he gives it a lot of air and land it outside off. Pollard looks to go inside out but the little turn away does him in. He ends up slicing it towards the man at sweeper cover. Hetmyer there settles under it and takes it. The Bangalore fans have found their voice back here. 6 runs and two wickets of Chahal's final over. He has probably bowled the momentum changing over here.

15.6 wd

Yuzvendra Chahal to Kieron Pollard. WIDE! Down the leg side, Pollard looks to flick but misses. It has been wided.

15.5 1

Yuzvendra Chahal to Krunal Pandya. DROPPED! But a top effort from Chahal! Almost gets his 4th. Tosses it up around off, Pandya looks to go with the turn. He though plays it with hard hands. It goes uppishly to the left of the bowler who dives and gets a hand to it but can't hang on. The batsmen take a run. That needed to stick but it did not.

15.4 1

Yuzvendra Chahal to Kieron Pollard. On the pads, Pollard flicks it through square leg and takes a single.

Strategic break has been signaled! Krunal Pandya is the new man in.

15.3 W

Yuzvendra Chahal to Suryakumar Yadav. OUT! Chahal gets another wicket! His third! Now, two new batsmen will be out in the middle. Just what Bangalore would have wanted. This is tossed up outside off, SKY looks to go over covers but the ball turns. It hits the bottom part and goes high up in the air. Moeen Ali from cover-point runs to his right and takes a good catch. End of a very good innings from Suryakumar Yadav but Mumbai would have wanted him to stay out there. Bangalore on the other hand are managing to pick wickets at regular intervals. Something they have to, to stem the run-flow.

15.2 2

Yuzvendra Chahal to Suryakumar Yadav. Looks to drag the sweep from outside off, it goes off the top edge though away from the fielder at short fine leg. He also misfields and the batsmen take two.

15.1 1

Yuzvendra Chahal to Kieron Pollard. This is the slider on the pads, Pollard works it through mid-wicket for a single.

End of Over : 15 13 Runs MI: 139/3
14.6 1

Colin de Grandhomme to Kieron Pollard. Works it behind square leg and takes a run.

14.5 1

Colin de Grandhomme to Suryakumar Yadav. A short delivery which has been pulled away. One run added to the total.

14.4 4

Colin de Grandhomme to Suryakumar Yadav. FOUR! Short of a good length outside off, slower in pace, Yadav throws his bat at it and it goes off the edge over the keeper's head. A boundary results.

End of Over : 14 20 Runs MI: 126/3
13.6 1

Yuzvendra Chahal to Suryakumar Yadav. An appeal but the umpire is not interested. Yadav goes down on one knee and looks to sweep. It goes off the inside edge towards short fine leg for a run. Chahal appeals as he feels it is pad first but the umpire shakes his head. End of an action-packed over. 20 runs and a wicket from it.

The platform is set for the big-hitters to come! 6 more overs to go. How many can Mumbai get?

13.5 1

Yuzvendra Chahal to Kieron Pollard. Flatter and on off, Pollard pushes it down to long off and gets to the other end.

Kieron Pollard is the new man in.

13.4 W

Yuzvendra Chahal to Yuvraj Singh. OUT! No, he does not! He does look to go for it but falls in the attempt to do so. Chahal is brave enough to toss it up outside off. It may have been the googly. Yuvraj looks to clear long off this time but does not get it off the middle. It goes towards the fielder there. Siraj for a second seems to have misjudged it but then takes it with both his hands raised above his head. Also, a tumble after that. Chahal gets his second and Yuvraj walks back disappointed. Not sure if he needed to go for another, but such is the format, you feel like going after every delivery no matter how many you got in the bag already.

13.3 6

Yuzvendra Chahal to Yuvraj Singh. SIX! High and handsome! Three in a row! Another poor ball. Short and outside off, Yuvraj goes back and powers it over the long on stands. Will he now make it 4 in 4 here?

13.2 6

Yuzvendra Chahal to Yuvraj Singh. SIX! Back-to-back maximums! Yuvraj Singh is on fire here. What a clean hit. Chahal gives it air this time but lands it very full on off. Yuvraj hits it over the bowler's head. The connection is such that it goes all the way.

13.1 6

Yuzvendra Chahal to Yuvraj Singh. SIX! That is huge! He has really hit that hard. Yes, it is a poor ball but it still has to be put away. Short and on middle, Yuvraj goes back and pulls it over the square leg fence.

Yuzvendra Chahal is back on.

End of Over : 13 13 Runs MI: 106/2
12.6 4

Moeen Ali to Suryakumar Yadav. FOUR! 10 from the last two deliveries and 13 from the over. Not what Bangalore wanted as they were starting to tighten things up here. Top shot this from SKY. He whips this through mid-wicket. It is in the gap and it races away to the fence.

12.5 6

Moeen Ali to Suryakumar Yadav. SIX! Into the stands! A shot with not a lot of risk as it was with the turn. Yadav clears his front leg and then tonks it into the long on stands. Brings the 100 up for Mumbai.

Moeen Ali to Yuvraj Singh. Eased down to long off, off the back foot for a run.

11.5 0

11.4 1

Mohammed Siraj to Suryakumar Yadav. Whips it down to long on and takes a run. He was looking to go over mid-wicket but hits it a little too straight.

11.1 0

Yuvraj Singh is the new man in.

10.4 W

Umesh Yadav to Rohit Sharma. OUT! In the air... taken! There goes the Hitman, two short of a half ton. A wicket completely against the run of play. Bangalore will be delighted as Rohit was looking extremely good. A delivery which is on the shorter side and it is outside off. It skids through. Rohit looks to pull but the ball hurries onto him. His bat turns in his hands and he ends up mistiming it high in the air towards long on. Siraj there runs in and takes a sliding catch. The bowling change has worked for the hosts. They would now look to bring things under their control.

10.3 0

Umesh Yadav to Rohit Sharma. Makes room but Yadav follows him. Rohit mistimes it to mid off.

10.2 1

Umesh Yadav to Suryakumar Yadav. Full and on the pads, Suryakumar stylishly flicks it towards fine leg for a single.

10.1 4

Umesh Yadav to Suryakumar Yadav. FOUR! Welcome back into the attack Yadav! Short and on off, SKY is quick to latch onto it. He pulls it through mid-wicket. The outfield is such that if it is in the gap, it is a certain boundary.

Umesh Yadav is back on.

End of Over : 10 10 Runs MI: 82/1
9.6 1

8.6 1

Yuzvendra Chahal to Rohit Sharma. The Mumbai skipper moves inside the line, closes the face and nudges it in front of square leg and crosses over.

8.5 4

Yuzvendra Chahal to Rohit Sharma. FOUR! Poor line and he pays the price for it. Full on the pads, Rohit kneels down and sweeps it down the leg side. Nobody out there in the deep, so the ball runs away to the fence.

8.4 1

Yuzvendra Chahal to Suryakumar Yadav. Played through mid-wicket by the batsman. The batsmen have run through for a single.

8.3 1

8.1 4

Yuzvendra Chahal to Suryakumar Yadav. FOUR BYES! Gone right through everyone! Full and the leg break, a little quicker in pace and it keeps a little low, Yadav gets low to sweep but fails to make connection. It goes under his bat, through the keeper's legs and away to the boundary line behind.

6.3 W

Yuzvendra Chahal to Quinton de Kock. OUT! This is what you call impact! What a player, Yuzvendra Chahal. Gets rid of the dangerous de Kock in his very first over. He tosses it up on leg stump, Quinton de Kock moves across, maybe a little too much, as he looks to drag the reverse sweep on the off side. It goes off the under edge and disturbs the stumps behind. The break does the job for the hosts, they get their first breakthrough.

6.2 2

End of Over : 6 9 Runs MI: 52/0
5.6 4

Navdeep Saini to Rohit Sharma. FOUR! Excellent way to end the Powerplay for Mumbai. 9 from it and it also brings the 50-run stand up. Ideal stand for Mumbai. Saini bowls this full and on off, Rohit lofts it over covers to bag another boundary. All Mumbai in the first six.

Navdeep Saini to Quinton de Kock. Good short ball! De Kock is a little late in the pull shot. It goes towards square leg for a run.

Navdeep Saini to Quinton de Kock. The yorker and Saini follows the batsman. De Kock jams it out.

5.3 4

Navdeep Saini to Quinton de Kock. DROPPED AND FOUR! That is like rubbing salt to the wound. De Grandhomme is the culprit. That should have been taken. Full and on middle, de Kock flicks it but uppishly towards mid-wicket. Colin there stretches his two hands upwards and tries to catch it but the ball bursts through and then goes to the fence behind. Big let off this, de Kock can be very dangerous here.

5.2 0

Navdeep Saini to Quinton de Kock. A good bumper there! De Kock may not have been expecting it but he evades it at the very end.

5.1 0

Navdeep Saini to Quinton de Kock. Well fielded! De Kock takes a few steps ahead and then hits it towards mid on. The fielder there does well to run to his right and stop it.

4.4 1

Mohammed Siraj to Quinton de Kock. Direct hit and it would have been close! Good running in the end! Length delivery around middle, de Kock strokes it to the left of Siraj. He makes a half-stop. De Kock then goes for a run but Siraj gets to it quickly. He then turns and has a shy at his end but misses. Had he hit, de Kock's dive would not have saved him.

4.3 6

Mohammed Siraj to Quinton de Kock. SIX! All the way! Trademark de Kock this. Takes a few steps down the ground and then smashes the length ball over the long on fence. First biggie for him.

Umesh Yadav to Quinton de Kock. A single to end as de Kock works this towards square leg. Mumbai are off to a very good start here.

2.5 4

Umesh Yadav to Quinton de Kock. FOUR! That has been dismissed! Slightly short and de Kock picks the length early. He pulls it right through mid-wicket and the ball races away. A boundary at least in the first three overs.

Navdeep Saini to Rohit Sharma. Outside off this time and Rohit shoulders arms to this one.

1.3 4

1.2 1

Navdeep Saini to Quinton de Kock. A little too straight again, de Kock works it to fine leg and gets to the other end.

1.1 0

0.1 0

Umesh Yadav to Quinton de Kock. A little bit of swing to begin with! It is on the fuller side, tails back in from outside off. De Kock strokes it nicely but finds mid off.

We are all set for the action to begin! The Bangalore players make their way out to the middle. They are followed by the left-hand, right-hand combination of Quinton de Kock and Rohit Sharma. The former will be on strike and he will be facing Umesh Yadav. Here we go...

Mumbai skipper, Rohit Sharma, says they are confident as they have played some good cricket here. Mentions that they will try and assess the conditions as quickly as possible and then try and defend. He hopes to lead from the front here tonight.

Bangalore skipper, Virat Kohli, says they want to bowl first, as it looks like a flat wicket and he expects it to ease up as the game progresses. Informs that they are playing the same XI. He hopes to win this game and get some momentum going. Ends by saying that there is no home advantage here in Bangalore as it is a true wicket.

TOSS - Bangalore win the toss and they elect to field!

PITCH REPORT - Ian Bishop starts by saying this is normally a high scoring ground and we can expect another high scoring game here. Mentions there are signs of moisture and the ball should slide on but there could be some assistance for the spinners too.

It is a clash between two teams which were beaten in their first game quite convincingly. Bangalore will be hosting Mumbai tonight. Both the teams will be eager to get their first points on the board. Who will come out victorious? We will have to wait to find out.

Virat Kohli, Ab de Villiers, Kieron Pollard, Rohit Sharma and a few more are the starts in action tonight. Does that get you excited? Well, I surely am. It's the first game at the Chinnaswamy in this edition and the crowd is already buzzing. And after witnessing the kind of games that have gone down in the last few days, why wouldn't they? Welcome to the coverage of the 7th game of this year's Indian T20 League.

End of Over : 20.0 RCB: 181/5

We've come to the end of a rather, well, eventful affair. We had everything in this game. Mumbai pick up their first win of the season, while Bangalore still remain in search of theirs. Next up, we have Hyderabad hosting Rajasthan on Friday, at 2000 local (1430 GMT). Join in for that one. Cheers!

Man of the Match, Jasprit Bumrah, says he just focuses on the situation in front of him and backs himself. Mentions that he had a plan against every batsman tonight and it came off well. Ends by saying that his shoulder is completely fine.

Mumbai captain, Rohit Sharma, says these mistakes (the no ball incident) are not good for the game of cricket. He feels the wide which was given in the 19th over was not one and that too was a poor decision. Adds that the TV replays should be used more often in such scenarios. Further adds that anything over 180 is a fighting score, not a safe one but their bowlers did their job. States that they were always in the game, that they did not panic and stuck to their strengths. Applauds Lasith Malinga and says he is an experienced campaigner and he has done it a lot of times for Mumbai. Continues saying that they should have scored something above 200 but failed to capitalize on the start they got. Feels that they need to work on those issues in the games further. Ends by saying that this game was a confidence booster for Hardik Pandya and hopes he continues performing well.

Krunal Pandya also comes in for a chat. He says that it was a great game of cricket. Credits the way Bumrah bowled and says he is an outstanding player. Appreciates the effort from Hardik towards the end and he hopes he does this on consistent basis.

Bangalore captain, Virat Kohli, (On the no ball incident) says this is cricket at the highest level and the umpire should have spotted that. On his team's performance, states that they should have finished the innings with the ball better. Reckons that they batted well but could not get over the line. Adds that AB de Villiers needed support and he did not get it much. Feels that they need to be smart at the death with the ball and their pacers need to learn. Continues saying that the responsibility is on every member of the team and they need to step up and show more character. Applauds Jasprit Bumrah and labels him as a world class bowler. Ends by saying that he should not have gone after him and should have played him out.

Mumbai were put under the pump for the most part, especially in the second half of the innings. De Villiers and Kohli were motoring along well, especially the former who went berserk towards the end. But, the visitors' were phenomenal in the death overs. And when you have two of the best in the business, you always have a chance. Bumrah, who was the best bowler of the night for the tourists, and Malinga put on an incredible death bowling display in the last 3 overs and eventually got their side over the line. Earlier in the day, Chahal starred with a 4-fer, but Rohit's fluent 48 and Hardik's cameo of 32 from 14 balls got Mumbai to a total, which eventually proved to be enough.

Parthiv and Kohli were going along well after losing Ali early. Then the skipper joined hands with de Villiers and the two were cruising along well till Bumrah got Kohli against the run of play. AB carried on, kept his side in the hunt by scoring a fine fifty. 40 runs were needed in the final 3 overs, which is when de Villiers pounded 18 runs off Hardik Pandya's over. It came down to 22 from 12, then 17 from the last one, and then 7 off the last ball, when Malinga bowled the no ball which wasn't picked up.

Seems we have a new topic for debate for the next few days. It was the Ashwin-Buttler Mankad incident a few matches ago, now it's the Malinga overstepping one tonight. Every point matter in this competition, so how much will it affect them as the tournament goes on? Remains to be seen. Either way, Bangalore did well to get close, but the fact that they weren't in a more comfortable position come the final over will be something they will ponder about.

19.6 0

Lasith Malinga to Shivam Dubey. Lasith Malinga... yes, my man! What an amazing over. Amazing. Rolling the years back, isn't he? This is right in the blockhole, Shivam Dubey can only hit it aerially towards wide long on. Rohit moves to his left, Pollard comes from deep mid-wicket to his right, both collide but no harm done. No run taken either but it doesn't matter. MUMBAI WIN BY 6 RUNS! But hold on! What's happened here? Replays are up on the screen and they show that Malinga has overstepped on the last ball, but it's gone unnoticed. Kohli is seen furious and the crowd is clearly unhappy.

19.5 1

Lasith Malinga to AB de Villiers. Only a single. Malinga with another good yorker. De Villiers can only manage to hit it to long on and take a single. Dubey has to nail this and clear the fence. Can the young man pull something special out of his hat? Big moment awaits...

19.4 1

Lasith Malinga to Shivam Dubey. Misses out! He should have put it away, he knows that. A juicy full toss outside off, Dubey hits it to sweeper cover and gets de Villiers back on strike. 8 needed off 2. Need a big hit now. At least a boundary.

19.3 1

Lasith Malinga to AB de Villiers. Absolutely bang on. The Malinga of old. A pinpoint yorker on the stumps, AB digs it out off the inner half on the leg side and takes a run.

19.2 1

Lasith Malinga to Shivam Dubey. Dropped! A bit difficult as he's running back, but Bumrah should have taken it, especially at this stage. Slower length ball on off, Dubey swings across the line and gets a top edge as he's early into the shot. It goes over short third man, Bumrah runs back and it comes to his palms, but he can't hang on. Single taken.

19.1 6

Lasith Malinga to Shivam Dubey. SIX! And young Dubey goes big... really big! First ball of the over and he sends it sailing. Full and right in the slot, the southpaw stays deep inside the crease and smokes it over long off for half a dozen. 11 needed off 5 balls.

Jasprit Bumrah to AB de Villiers. Running out of superlatives for his man. What a bowler. Should be called Deadshot if he isn't already. He doesn't miss his mark yet again, spears in the yorker on middle, de Villiers digs it out towards mid on for a single.

18.4 0

Jasprit Bumrah to AB de Villiers. Superb ball. Takes AB by surprise with the bumper. The batsman looks to take the hook shot on but misses. No wide given, not this time. It's the perfect ball.

Shivam Dubey walks out now. Big moment ahead in front of the youngster. AB de Villiers will be on strike though.

18.3 W

Jasprit Bumrah to Colin de Grandhomme. OUT! Gone next ball. Bumrah with another wicket. Been an exceptional over so far. Short of a length outside off, de Grandhomme lofts it over covers. Never in control of this, he skies it towards the man in the deep. Krunal out there moves to his right, gets under the ball and gobbles it up.

18.3 wd

Jasprit Bumrah to Colin de Grandhomme. WIDE! De Kock is furious with the decision. Furious! Can understand too, it does look a big dicey. Short ball outside off, de Grandhomme looks to hit it away but misses. If Quinton could review this, he probably would have.

18.2 1

Jasprit Bumrah to AB de Villiers. Immaculate. He's dead accurate with his yorkers. Bumrah fires it outside off, AB moves across to play at it but is caught on the pads. The ball falls on the off side and the batsmen take a leg bye.

17.4 6

Hardik Pandya to AB de Villiers. SIX! Mr. 360 for a reason! He somehow finds a way to score in any area. Look at that! Full and wide outside off, de Villiers gets down, reaches out to it and just hacks it over covers. Clears the leaping fielder just inside the rope and gets a maximum to his name.

Colin de Grandhomme is out now to bat.

16.1 W

Jasprit Bumrah to Shimron Hetmyer. OUT! Would you look at that? He's come on and already got a breakthrough. This is what the best in the business do. They deliver. It's full on the stumps, Hetmyer backs away and tries to go big downtown. Mistimes it altogether and hands a simple enough catch to Hardik Pandya at mid off. A bit poor from Hetmyer, all he needed to do was give the strike to AB. Nothing more.

Strategic break. 41 needed in the final 4 overs. A set AB de Villiers is out there in the middle with Shimron Hetmyer to partner him. Still a tough task, but anything can happen with these two. Jasprit Bumrah's two overs will be the key for Mumbai. We're in for a show in these final few overs. And, here comes Bumrah to bowl.

End of Over : 16 20 Runs RCB: 147/3
15.6 6

Lasith Malinga to AB de Villiers. Wide! Fires this down the leg side, wide called by the umpire.

15.4 4

Lasith Malinga to AB de Villiers. FOUR! There's a massive appeal for a leg before, but the umpire has signalled runs. Rohit Sharma has a chat with his bowler and keeper, and decides not to take the DRS. Good decision in the end, replay shows there is some bat involved. Full toss on the stumps, de Villiers gets low to slog sweep but it takes the inside edge, goes off the pad and runs away to the fine leg fence.

15.3 1

Lasith Malinga to Shimron Hetmyer. A little too straight in line, it is flicked away on the leg side for one.

15.2 2

Lasith Malinga to Shimron Hetmyer. Good running between the wickets. Hetmyer works it through mid-wicket and both batsmen, who are quick between the wickets, rush for the first one. The call for the second comes instantly and they complete it with ease too.

14.3 4

14.2 4

Hardik Pandya to AB de Villiers. FOUR! Not in complete control of that shot. AB will feel he's lucky, but will take the runs all the same. This short ball sits up for him, de Villiers stands tall and heaves it towards wide long on. Suryakumar Yadav out in the deep comes in to his right and dives, but the ball falls short. Goes through him and it's a boundary. Hardik isn't pleased with the effort.

Hardik Pandya there settles under it and takes a safe catch. Crucial partnership of 49 has come to a close.

13.2 1

Jasprit Bumrah to Virat Kohli. Back of a length around off, Kohli opens the face of the bat and dabs it behind point. Malinga comes across to his right from third man and cuts it off, keeping the batsmen to one. With this, Virat Kohli reaches the 5000-run mark in the Indian T20 League.

11.6 6

Lasith Malinga to AB de Villiers. SIX! That's gone all the way! Fine way to end the over from de Villiers. 14 runs have come off it. Just ahead of a length, on middle, it's the cutter, AB goes leg side. Slogs it powerfully enough over square leg and gets a maximum to his name. Kohli loved that as he leapt in the air and punches his fist in delight.

11.5 1

Lasith Malinga to Virat Kohli. Back of a length outside off, a solid punch is offered in sweeper cover's direction. An easy single is collected.

Mayank Markande to AB de Villiers. DROPPED! Has Yuvi dropped the game? A reprieve off the very first ball for de Villiers. This is the slider and outside off, de Villiers goes back and looks to punch it through the off side. He only manages an outside edge towards first slip. Yuvraj at first seems to be heading towards his right but then has to react as the ball is to his left. He fails to do so and can't hang on. Mayank could have had two-in-two. Nevertheless a successful over comes to an end by him.

6.5 W

Mayank Markande to Parthiv Patel. OUT! TIMBER! Mayank strikes in his first over. Breaks the stand which was threatening to take the game away from Mumbai. Exactly what Rohit wanted. It is the googly which does the trick for Mayank. It is flatter and outside off, Patel goes back and looks to cut which means he picked the googly. The ball though is very close to play that shot.

Pandya bowls it flatter and on the leg stump, Patel looks to flick but misses to get hit high on the pads. KP is appealing but he is the only one doing so.

Jasprit Bumrah to Virat Kohli. FOUR! Make that three in a row! Kohli has come out all guns blazing. Best of the boundaries these. Another length delivery outside off. Kohli waits for it and at the very end opens the face of the bat. It races through cover-point for a boundary. So two dots and a wicket on the first three balls, three boundaries to end the action-packed over.

Jasprit Bumrah to Virat Kohli. FOUR! This time an edgy boundary! Kohli won't mind though. Bumrah goes full and outside off, Kohli looks to force it through the off side but only manages an outside edge. It is very fine, no chance for third man and consecutive boundaries for the Bangalore skipper.

Jasprit Bumrah to Virat Kohli. FOUR! In the air... but away from mid on. Kohli would have had his heart in the mouth for a moment. Short and on middle, Kohli pulls it uppishly towards mid on. The fielder is a little wide and a boundary results.

Jasprit Bumrah to Parthiv Patel. OUT! And that is why he was walking back as he is way short! The opening stand has been broken in the last way Bangalore would have wanted. Just as Moeen Ali seemed to get going, he has been run out. A suicidal run to be honest. Parthiv works it towards mid-wicket and sets off. Ali is a touch hesitant but then has to go for it as PP is halfway down the track. Rohit from mid-wicket gets to the ball quickly, picks it up and hits the bull's eye at the striker's end. The Mumbai players are celebrating but the umpire takes it upstairs and replays show that Moeen Ali is a goner.

A direct hit and Moeen Ali is surely short. He has already started to walk back but to be sure the umpire has taken it upstairs.
