- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.2 De Kock goes. He tries the big pull shot but the ball is not that short. He has had a big go at this as is evident from high the ball has gone. Nikhil Naik at midwicket has to wait for an eternity for it to come down but catches it comfortably 8/117.5 Sharma has looked exhausted for a while now. Usually you would see such a full toss outside off disappear into the grand stand, but he ends up slogging this to long-on for an easy catch. Not the worst thing to happen for Mumbai 177/410.5 skips down the track, Narine drags the length back, beats him in flight, and he drops this into the leg side. Lovely chase from Narine and a lovely take from Morgan. Narine chases towards deep midwicket, they decide to take him on, the throw comes in quick to the bowler's end, but on a half-volley. Morgan gathers it beautifully, and flicks the bails off behind him. A wicketkeeper would be proud of that work 98/215.1 carrom ball from Narine, Tiwary is looking to go over long-off, and is early into the shot too, getting a lot of height but no distance on it. Perfect time for Pollard or Pandya to walk in. Tiwary has done his job 147/318.3 he is hit wicket. Goes deep to counter the yorker and shuffles to the off stump, but loses the whereabouts of his stumps. Russell delivers the yorker, which Pandya wants to steer, but as the bat comes down, it knocks off the off bail 180/5Extras14 (lb 2, nb 1, w 11)TOTAL195/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.75)Fall of wickets: 1-8 (Quinton de Kock, 1.2 ov), 2-98 (Suryakumar Yadav, 10.5 ov), 3-147 (Saurabh Tiwary, 15.1 ov), 4-177 (Rohit Sharma, 17.5 ov), 5-180 (Hardik Pandya, 18.3 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.4 Boult goes short now, and Gill has pulled this straight to midwicket. He is deep in the crease to pull this but the mistake he makes is to try to pull it down. From that height it is a long way down. Had he looked for a six, who knows he might have got away with it 14/14.5 nice one-handed grab by de Kock. Narine's poor record against Mumbai continues. He makes room to try to pull. Pattinson sticks with the plan: short, at his body. The top edge is flying over de Kock's head, but he leaps with perfect timing and grabs this with the right mitt 25/210.1 plumb. Karthik is feeling the pressure, and as soon as he sees one flighted up, he gets down for a slog sweep. It dips nicely to beat him, and goes straight on to hit him dead in front 71/311.4 lovely catch by H Pandya. Pollard's slowness means Rana has to create all the power on this lofted cover drive. Pandya is off the fence and he has to run back to hold on and he has to keep the fence in mind too. He does all that, and makes it look easy. Pollard's first IPL wicket since 2015 77/415.4 and Bumrah has one more. Morgan backs away to try to hit over mid-off, but he is too good for him with the slower offcutter and takes the outside edge through to the keeper 101/615.1 he knocks back his leg stump and stands there still, no emotion. It is in the slot, but Russell is done by the pace. His bat comes down late, and this should seal Mumbai's first win in six attempts in UAE 100/516.3 short ball, over his shoulder, top-edges the hook, easy catch for deep midwicket. Mumbai looking to end this early now 103/718.2 oh he has hit better balls than this for sixes. This is right in the slot, it is on-pace, and he is thinking six as he swings hard, but gets the toe end of the bat for an easy catch to midwicket 141/819.6 and he ends up with a wicket last ball. Mavi wants to hit a six, Chahar shortens his length and beats him to leave him stranded halfway down the wicket 146/9Extras5 (lb 2, w 3)TOTAL146/9 (20 Overs, RR: 7.3)Did not bat: S Sandeep WarrierFall of wickets: 1-14 (Shubman Gill, 2.4 ov), 2-25 (Sunil Narine, 4.5 ov), 3-71 (Dinesh Karthik, 10.1 ov), 4-77 (Nitish Rana, 11.4 ov), 5-100 (Andre Russell, 15.1 ov), 6-101 (Eoin Morgan, 15.4 ov), 7-103 (Nikhil Naik, 16.3 ov), 8-141 (Pat Cummins, 18.2 ov), 9-146 (Shivam Mavi, 19.6 ov)
