19.4 - C Morris to Buttler, FOUR, another full delivery from Morris, Buttler aims to pulverise it down the ground and gets an outside edge to third man. Morris bowled that one from wide of the crease

18.1 - Tahir to Rayudu, FOUR, now, Rayudu has decided to put up an exhibition of power-hitting. Flatter delivery from Tahir, Rayudu slog-sweeps it to the deep mid-wicket boundary. The fielder in the deep runs across, but to no avail

18.0 - C Morris to Buttler, FOUR, brute force by the Lancastrain - Buttler. He backs away and butchers a fuller length delivery to the deep backward point fence. When he hits, it stays hit

15.3 - Mishra to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, drifting down leg and gets the deserved punishment. Pandya sits on one knee and sweeps it to the deep backward square leg fence

14.4 - Zaheer to Guptill, byes, FOUR, well, not much going right for DEL. Zaheer looks for the yorker, but loses his radar and bowls a full toss, Guptill makes room and tries to hammer it through the off-side, but does not make the connection. The ball bounces awkwardly on de Kock and he can't collect it cleanly. It runs away for four byes

14.1 - Zaheer to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, boomed! Zaheer pounds it short, Pandya pulls it to the mid-wicket boundary. He fetched it from outside off and yet got it somewhere near the middle of the bat

13.4 - S Nadeem to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, with a dash of royal flourish, Pandya buries a pushed through delivery to the long-on fence. The fielder in the deep had no chance of stopping that

13.0 - Tahir to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, Pandya applies the finishing touches to what can be a game-changing over for MUM by bringing out the lofted drive to extra cover. 23 runs came from that over

11.0 - Mishra to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, Pandya is displaying heavy layers of skill today. Fuller length delivery and zeroing in on the stumps, Pandya lifts it into the downtown territories. It rockets to the fence

9.5 - Tahir to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, that's courageous. And powerful. Shuffles across to make room for this fullish googly and powers this loft with lots of bottom hand. Over extra cover and it zoots to the fences (hot wheels)

9.0 - Mishra to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, Tahir misses his 'slap' attempt to field that at cow corner. This was clobbered cross-batted by Pandya again, Tahir spots it late I think, has to let out a sprint and ends up fanning the air as the ball ricochets well in front of him

7.3 - Tahir to Guptill, FOUR, this ball deserved this misfield. Let me be very brutal. Short and wide, Guptill opens his bat on the cut and gets it past a fumbling and struggling Zaheer at backward point

6.5 - Mishra to Guptill, FOUR, that's bliss. Too good a shot to bring the fifty up. Overpitched legbreak, Guptill had the front foot stride to pummel it and does so with an inside-out loft over long-off. You should have seen that ball sail over the fielder

0.3 - S Nadeem to Rohit, FOUR, and Rohit responds with a four. Kneels, doesn't allow the ball to do much and helps this pitched up delivery over mid-wicket with a sweep

20.0 - C Morris to Buttler, SIX, Buttler finishes the innings in style by tonking a fuller length delivery over long-on. It was cracked with a mighty swing by Buttler

18.2 - Tahir to Rayudu, SIX, Rayudu again sits on one knee and slog-sweeps it over the deep mid-wicket boundary. This time, it goes all the way. In the slog overs, MUM have explored every nook and cranny of the ground

16.3 - Zaheer to Krunal Pandya, SIX, there was a time, when pulling with a vertical bat was almost considered impossible. However, in modern times, batsmen are fearless. Shortish and outside off, Pandya pulls it over mid-wicket and it clears the fence

15.5 - Mishra to Krunal Pandya, SIX, another maximum. This is ridiculous hitting from Pandya. Flatter delivery and on the stumps, Pandya slogs it over the deep mid-wicket boundary. He picked the bones out of that delivery

15.4 - Mishra to Krunal Pandya, SIX, Pandya is taking the oppostion ranks to the cleaners. In fact, DEL's field placements have been reduced to a state of lottery. Pandya plants his front foot and cracks it straight down the ground and it goes all the way

13.5 - S Nadeem to Krunal Pandya, SIX, oh boy! Pandya has packed a punch with a flurry of crackerjack shots. He reaches his fifty in style with a maximum. No wonder, MUM's star-studded cricketers in the dug-out stand up and applaud his effort. The fifty came in a mere 22 balls, too. Coming back to the shot, Pandya just butchered a flatter delivery over the deep mid-wicket boundary

12.5 - Tahir to Krunal Pandya, SIX, this is turning out to be a great over for MUM. Pandya just plonks his front foot and pulverises it straight down the ground

12.2 - Tahir to Guptill, SIX, Guptill is firing on all cylinders now. He makes a touch of room and lofts it over long-off. It cleared the fence with utmost ease

12.1 - Tahir to Guptill, SIX, is Guptill using a bazooka or a willow? The googly from Tahir, Guptill sits on one knee and slog-sweeps it to over long-on. He picked that googly quite easily

8.3 - Mishra to Krunal Pandya, SIX, wrong 'un again and this sees the stars! Shuffles across, uses the fuller length to its full advantage and launches it over long-on

5.3 - S Nadeem to Rohit, SIX, ah, that's been boomed away! Gets it on the ideal length to sweep, kneels down before you could say Jack Robinson and winds it over deep square leg

4.0 - C Morris to Rohit, SIX, that's been bullied like a high school nerd! A front foot pull, can you believe? Perhaps reads the length early like a psychic and flat-bats the pull over long-on. Yes, long-on

3.2 - C Morris to Guptill, SIX, that's surreal. That takes real power! Morris bowled it short, Guptill was initially looking to charge but then holds himself and makes tennis look mundane with a flat-batter hammer over deep extra cover

0.4 - S Nadeem to Rohit, SIX, Gavaskar's "yes, yes" itinerary could teach counting to the kids here. Not that good a shot to be honest. Short, yes, but not much and Rohit lofts it over deep extra cover. Opened the bat face well there to cover up the turn. Okay, it was a good shot

17.5 - C Morris to Pollard, out Caught by de Kock!! Pollard does not usually try fancy shots behind the wicket. However, this time, he looks to scoop and gets it off the toe-end and de Kock, the keeper, runs across to snaffle it. Pollard c de Kock b C Morris 3(6)

17.2 - C Morris to Krunal Pandya, out Bowled!! Morris does the trick for DEL. Fuller length delivery and outside off, Pandya tries to hammer it across the line and gets an inside edge onto his stumps. It brings to an end Pandya's pyrotechnics. The great man, Tendulkar, pats Krunal as he makes his way back to the hut. Krunal Pandya b C Morris 86(37) [4s-7 6s-6]

14.5 - Zaheer to Guptill, out Caught by Nair!! Guptill's fine hand comes to an end. He played with composure, sprinkled with some eye-catching shots. Guptill attempted to clobber a full toss over long-off, but got it off the toe-end. Karun ran in from long-off and took a good running catch with both hands. Guptill's bat also turned in his hands and that did not help his cause. Guptill c Nair b Zaheer 48(42) [4s-2 6s-3]

6.3 - Mishra to Rohit, out Caught by Rishabh Pant!! The Rohit Sharma theorem needs a rework. It's a mediocre legbreak turning away, ironically giving Rohit the width to cut and he finds Rishabh Pant with it. And that's a good catch. Dives head-first and pouches it at backward point. Ravi Shastri gives his verdict on air as the third umpire struggles in his cobweb of replays and zoomers. Then concurs with Waz's Shaz and sends the mathematicians into a tizzy. Rohit c Rishabh Pant b Mishra 31(21) [4s-1 6s-3]

11.3 - S Nadeem to Krunal Pandya, 1 run, the stand between the pair now is worth 50 runs. Pandya takes it on the full and drills it to long-on

17.5 - McClenaghan to Tahir, FOUR, okay, that's karma for me. This is a good shot. Gets a drivable ball and lofts it over a near vacant infield to the deep cover fence

13.4 - McClenaghan to C Morris, FOUR, now that, for a change, was not intentional. This time the shimmy cramps him for room, the short ball rises up awkwardly high and the attempted flat-batted pull is spliced through third man. Good enough, Morris would say

13.2 - McClenaghan to C Morris, FOUR, wow. Skips out to see the length shortened and flat-bats the pull off the front foot over mid-on. One bounce and into awesome zones

11.5 - McClenaghan to Duminy, FOUR, backs away to make room for the angle in and flogs this fuller delivery with a drive through long-off. Switch back round the wicket already

9.5 - Krunal Pandya to Rishabh Pant, FOUR, short in length, Pant stays back and cuts it to deep backward point. It came off the outside edge

9.4 - Krunal Pandya to Rishabh Pant, FOUR, flatter delivery and outside off, Pant drills it to deep extra cover. Much needed four for DEL

6.5 - Harbhajan to de Kock, FOUR, de Kock camps back and cracks the cut to the deep backward point boundary. He is using the depth of the crease supebly to the spinner

4.3 - Harbhajan to Nair, FOUR, Nair saunters down the track, takes it on the half volley and drills it down the ground. Lovely strike by Nair

4.0 - Vinay to de Kock, FOUR, de Kock is playing an innings, where he is twinning sweetness and power. Short and wide delivery, de Kock flashes at it to the sweeper cover boundary. Despite Pollard putting in a dive and looking to get the ball back into play, he can't succeed in his endeavour. The TV umpire confirms the same

3.5 - Vinay to de Kock, FOUR, fuller length delivery and outside off, de Kock crunches the drive and it just vrooms away to the boundary boards

3.3 - Vinay to de Kock, FOUR, that was a mind-blowing strike by de Kock. Length delivery and angling down leg, de Kock uses the pick up shot and it zoots away to the backward square leg fence

16.2 - Vinay to C Morris, SIX, that was "cool". No other way to put it. Gets a short ball with some venom, puts on a jet pack and hops high. And then arches his back to manufacture power on the upper cut over deep cover. The fielder there was standing deep, arches back but it was wooded well

8.3 - Harbhajan to Rishabh Pant, SIX, Pant dances down the track, gets it on the half-volley and lifts it down the ground. Despite Pollard looking to get towards the ball, it clears the fence

3.4 - Vinay to de Kock, SIX, again Vinay drifts it down leg, de Kock brings out the pick-up shot and it clears the deep backward square leg boundary. The crack of the willow against the leather gave an inkling that it came right off the screws. He is in the mood. He has those fast hands and that makes it very difficult to bowl to him

2.2 - McClenaghan to de Kock, SIX, shorter in length, de Kock rocks back and pulls it over deep square leg. McClenaghan did bend his back on that one, but de Kock gave him the fitting riposte

0.4 - Harbhajan to M Agarwal, SIX, Agarwal shows his aggressive intent by using the slog-sweep to a quicker delivery to clear the deep backward square leg boundary

19.1 - Krunal Pandya to Zaheer, out Bowled!! Third biggest T20 League win for Mumbai. They are alive and breathing! What a win this, what a big win this and what a way for this match to end. Krunal Pandya, the subtle Pandya sibling, stretches his moment of glory with this wicket. Loops this up on a length, gets it to turn past the face of the closing bat and crashes into the off-stump. Zaheer b Krunal Pandya 2(4)

18.0 - McClenaghan to Tahir, out Tahir Run Out!! Mistimes a pull shot to mid-on, the fielder comes running in and cuts Tahir's slow-legged jog of a desperate run short. No referral upstairs..that clear. Tahir run out (Vinay) 5(7) [4s-1]

16.4 - Vinay to C Morris, out C Morris Run Out!! 1 run completed. Now he perishes. Gets ambitious as he clips one to backward square leg and aims for a couple. Calls for it, runs to the danger end and falls short. The throw is quick and flat and killing. C Morris run out (Rayudu/Buttler) 20(16) [4s-2 6s-1]

15.3 - Bumrah to Mishra, out Bowled!! That was through before Mishra's mind could fancy a shot. Wobbles the seam on a length, gets it to cut away. Mishra was standing down leg, looks for a run-down to third man but the ball whizzes past the toe-end and downs the off-stump. Mishra b Bumrah 1(5)

13.0 - Bumrah to Rishabh Pant, out Bowled!! Bumrah, Bumrah! Angles this away on a length but doesn't go too kind with the width. Keeps Pant cramped who swivels into a premeditated short-arm pull and chops it onto the stumps. Umpire check the no ball and millions of replays later, it's concurred that Bumrah's front leg had an iota behind the line. Rishabh Pant b Bumrah 23(17) [4s-2 6s-1]

12.5 - Bumrah to Duminy, out Caught by Buttler!! That top-edge jetted up, Buttler called for it, feared not holding on to it, catches and then lies flat on his back in relief. That high. Duminy shimmied down the track, Bumrah cleverly pulled the length back but Duminy was not holding back. Swung across the line to try his luck which obviously ditched him. Duminy c Buttler b Bumrah 9(9) [4s-1]

9.2 - Krunal Pandya to de Kock, out Caught by Buttler!! de Kock is befuddled as he has been chugged down. Maybe it did not take the edge there. Even in the game against HYD, he was given out when he had not edged it. While he was walking back to the dug-out, he was basically talking to himself that he was wrongly given out twice in this T20 League. Pandya bowls it outside off, de Kock tries to dab it to short third man. de Kock perhaps believes that his bat hit the keeper's gloves. I think that is the sound the umpire heard. de Kock c Buttler b Krunal Pandya 40(28) [4s-4 6s-2]

7.5 - Krunal Pandya to de Kock, out Samson Run Out!! Samson has the habit of being involved in terrible mix-ups. Here, too, he is prised out on the back of a run-out. de Kock slaps it to Harbhajan at backward point, who swoops down on the ball quickly and fires in a throw at the bowler's end, where Krunal gets behind the sticks and takes the bails off. By then, Samson was half way down the pitch and had no chance of getting back. Samson run out (Harbhajan/Krunal Pandya) 6(11)

4.4 - Harbhajan to Nair, out Caught by Bumrah!! Now, why would you try to lap it around the corner, when you can land powerful blows down the ground? Perplexing from Nair. Slower through the air from Harbhajan, Nair tries to use the lap shot and finds Bumrah at short fine. Nair c Bumrah b Harbhajan 8(8) [4s-1]

1.3 - Vinay to M Agarwal, out Bowled!! Vinay is pumped up as he comes back into the side and straightaway chugs down his Karnataka team-mate Agarwal. Nothing but a back of a length that was slanted in, Agarwal tries to dab it to third man with an angled bat and chops it onto the pitch and then it rattles the stumps. It might have hit the bat harder than Agarwal expected it to. M Agarwal b Vinay 8(5) [6s-1]
