    5.4 You live by the sword and you die by it - that's the saying Venkatesh followed tonight. Once again used his long reach to try and thwack it over the on side. But yet again, the length meant that it was out of Iyer's reach and all he could manage was a top edge. It was also the wristspin that was thrown a tad wider. Gobbled safely by Sams at cover. Kartikeya gets his MP team-mate. 60/1

    10.2 And here's the false shot that brings Kartikeya the success. Another attempted reverse-sweep, Rahane misses it completely to lose his off stump. Kartikeya flighted this one and kept it closer to the stumps unlike the last ball. Gets rewarded for the second time this game. Smart, brave bowling. 87/2
    14.5 That's out! Surely? The umpire doesn't think so and Mumbai opt for the DRS. Short ball from over the stumps, Rana is caught in an awkward position - he looks to duck as well as fend - and I heard a noise as the ball passed the bat. Ishan Kishan did so, too, while Bumrah also celebrated. But the umpire stayed unmoved. Rana knows he's gloved it and is seen walking back even as the Snicko confirms it. The short ball does him in yet again. 139/5
    13.1 Beauts of a delivery to get rid of Shreyas Iyer, who is very good against spin. A perfect Test match dismissal. Tossed up, lands on a length around off and middle, turns, bounces, draws the batter forward. Shreyas lunges and only manages to glove it to Kishan behind. A wicket right after the break for Mumbai. 123/3
    14.2 Bumrah delivers with the big wicket and big man Polly seldom drops catches! Length ball this time around off, beats Russell for pace. Yet he goes with the heave and only ends up hitting it as far as Pollard at long-on. 136/4

    17.1 Stupendous, stunning, fantastic, fantabulous Daniel Sams! Covers a lot of ground to run in from the deep and pull off a diving catch. It is another KKR wicket off a short ball, this time Jackson the batter. Looks to pull it but only gets it towards where midwicket would be been in the circle. Sams runs in from deep square leg and puts in the dive to catch that swirling ball. 156/6
    17.3 Tilak Varma's turn to take a good running catch now! Bumrah is bringing back the smiles in the MI dugout as well as supporters' section. Banged in short, Cummins' bottom hand comes off as he pulls. Ends up skying it high. Varma calls, has his eyes on the ball as he runs towards square leg from midwicket and takes it. 156/7
    17.4 Bumrah is here and how! Fast, faster and fastest have been Bumrah's speeds this over. This is the Bumrah teams fall to and he has got an amazing fifer. And mind you, he's only 16 balls into his spell. Runs in from around the stumps and bowls it back of a length. Narine is caught by surprise and looks to turn it round the corner. Gets it high on the bat and towards the bowler. Bumrah hares towards it and takes it in his followthrough, and throws it up in celebration. You have to be at DY Patil to feel it all. 156/8
    18.6 Catching practice. Back of a length ball around middle, the offcutter yet again. Southee looks to hit it over long-on but finds the big man Pollard there. Four-ball duck for Southee. 164/9

    0.6 back of a length on the hips, Rohit goes back to defend and it looks like he misses a back foot prod with the ball going off his back leg to the keeper. Rohit doesn't move, the appeal for caught behind is denied. KKR goes for the review. Looked fairly straightforward. All sorts of large spikes on ultra-edge before and after the ball passes the bat as well as while the ball is passing the bat. So many wild and large deviations there on the ultra-edge that it's hard to differentiate them. It looked like there was a gap between bat and ball too. But the third umpire says he's convinced one of those outrageous spikes had to be bat on ball. Decision overturned. Rohit is steaming as he walks off. 2/1
    14.1 starts with a bouncer on middle and a top edge swirls to deep backward square leg where Rinku Singh continues to show off his catching prowess by holding onto this steepler 10 yards in from the rope, taking the catch falling forward to cushion the ball in. 100/5
    4.6 Russell keeps banging away on this same fifth stump back of a length ploy and it finally pays off! Tilak is cramped for room going onto his toes to cut, edge carries comfortably to Rana at chest height at slip. 32/2
    10.3 length ball on fourth stump, tries to heave this over midwicket and it winds up being skied tamely to short third man. Simple catch on the ring at chest height for Rana. 69/3
    12.2 David looked futile against spin and finally falls! 12 off 3 balls to start his innings against Dre Russ, 1 off his final 6 balls against a combination of Narine and Varun. He gets a length ball on middle that he tries to heave over the leg side rope but skies a top edge that swirls around before coming down into the hands of deep midwicket at chest height 15 yards inside the rope. 83/4
    17.2 dropped! Mile high skier is fumbled by the keeper! But they will get the runout in a chaotic sequence! Length ball on the stumps, Pollard goes to heave this over midwicket and skies this behind the stumps. It swirls round and round where Jackson is twisted in knots before diving forward and can't hold on. But full credit to the awareness of both Chakravarthy and Shreyas. They never stopped playing. Chakravarthy was prepared for a possible drop and backed up Jackson to field and throw to Shreyas, who alertly covered the striker's stumps and has Pollard short by several yards. 113/9
    14.4 bounces another one out in this over! Short on middle at 141 kph, goes to pull and a top edge goes off the helmet and flutters to the keeper. 102/6
    14.6 a trifecta of short ball wickets in this over for Cummins! M Ashwin tried to uppercut the first ball he faced but missed. This time he middles it... but sends it straight to Varun Chakravarthy on the third man rope. Sharp catch taken reaching above his head while staying balanced a foot inside the rope. 102/7
    16.6 length ball on off stump, shuffles way across for this 139 kph delivery to flick behind square. It was the final ball of the over so they wanted an even numbered outcome. Dot, two, four or six. But Pollard wanted the strike for the next over and that's the only reason Kartikeya came back for two because it was never on in a million years. The relay catches him short by six yards. 112/8
    17.3 Back to back runouts end it! Length ball into the hips, goes to tap and run into midwicket. But Rinku is on the scene to charge, field, and fire from 12 yards out, his momentum taking him toward square leg before unleashing a skiddy one-bounce direct hit with one stump to aim at and catches Bumrah a yard short. 113/10
