In the second over of MI's chase, Hardik Pandya's pace delivery hit Green's elbow and he was retired hurt at 4. Suryakumar Yadav came to the crease in his place and joined Rohit Sharma. Both the the batters tried to anchor the innings but the skipper had to depart after three balls. Later, Tilak Varma came to bat and was dismissed by Rashid Khan after playing a brilliant knock of 43 off 14 balls.
