That's it from us here. Bangalore put aside all the things said about their bowling. They backed themselves and did the job for their team tonight. With this win, Bangalore jump to fifth place. Tomorrow, on 2nd May, Delhi welcome Rajasthan at their home turf. That game will begin at 2000 local (1430 GMT). Join us for all the live updates from that game. Cheers!
The Man of the Match award has been given to Tim Southee for his figures of 4-0-25-2. He was pivotal at the death and didn't let the batsmen get under him. Bowled yorkers at will to which the batters had no response.
Mumbai had a challenging total on their hands as the wicket was a bit slow. They needed a good start but didn't get it. Lost wickets at regular intervals and kept too much at the back end. They lost four inside the first ten and just when Duminy and Hardik looked to steady the ship, a piece of brilliance from Umesh Yadav saw the former getting run out. Then, the Pandya brothers did revive the Mumbai hopes with a 56-run stand. But they had no answer to the death bowling of Bangalore and in the end they finished short of the target.
Finally Bangalore's bowling came to the fore! They were exceptional tonight. After a strong finish with the bat, they carried their momentum onto the field. They came out all fired up by pegging back Mumbai early in the innings, picking up three wickets inside the Powerplay. They did lose steam in the middle but some fine death bowling by Mohammed Siraj and Tim Southee made sure that they taste victory tonight.

Tim Southee To Ben Cutting
SIX! But it does not matter. BANGALORE WIN BY 14 RUNS! This is full and on off. Cutting tonks it over the long off fence for a maximum. Finally, Virat Kohli can afford to smile, the home side stays alive in the tournament.

Tim Southee To Ben Cutting
That ball has taken the inside edge of the batsman and thudded into his pads. So 21 needed from the last ball. That is next to impossible.

Tim Southee To Ben Cutting
Another dot and that should be it. A slower short ball on middle. Cutting goes for the pull but mistimes it to deep mid-wicket.

Tim Southee To Ben Cutting
A dot! Another slower one on middle, Cutting swings but the ball takes the inside edge and goes to short fine leg. He does not run.

FOUR! Cutting still keeps them in it with this boundary. Length ball on middle, Cutting heaves it through mid-wicket for a boundary.

Tim Southee To Hardik Pandya OUT!
OUT! Game, set and match? It has to be. What a ripper of a catch by Kohli. He pulled something similar in his last game but ended up on the losing side. Can this catch help him win this game? The slower ball on middle, Pandya hits it towards long on. It is uppish but for a second he must have felt he is safe. But Kohli in the deep runs forward, dives and takes it inches above the ground. Pandya gets to his fifty and is walking back. Mitchell McClenaghan is the next man in.

Just a couple to end the over! Excellent from Siraj. He serves a full toss on middle, Cutting can't take full toll of it as he hits it towards deep mid-wicket for a brace.

Mohammed Siraj To Hardik Pandya
Can't find one! Another very full ball outside off, Pandya can't get under it and hits it towards long off for a run. 21 more needed.

DOT BALL! Full wide outside off, Pandya swings but misses. These are gold dust at these stage. Boundary needed.
Ben Cutting is the new man in.

Mohammed Siraj To Krunal Pandya OUT!
OUT! This over keeps getting better. Kurnal Pandya is walking back. Top, top stuff from Siraj. Krunal goes for the paddle scoop but gets a top edge which goes towards point. Mandeep Singh there accepts a dolly. Krunal's struggle comes it an end. 28 needed from 9. Bangalore right on top now.

Mohammed Siraj To Hardik Pandya
Another single! Why haven't the Bangalore bowlers bowled like this throughout the tournament. A yorker on middle, Pandya jams it out towards mid on for a run.

Mohammed Siraj To Krunal Pandya
NOT OUT! There is bat involved! A full toss on middle, this was right in the arc for Krunal. He however, seems to have missed it to get hit on the pads. The players appeal but the umpire shakes his head. Kohli takes a late review. Replays show there was an inside edge. The batsmen crossed over for a run before the review was taken. Nevertheless, Krunal will be disappointed with himself as that should have been put away.
Review time! A huge appeal for LBW has been given not out. Kohli wants it to be reviewed. Krunal is the man in question. Impact is an issue.

Take a bow, Southee. Brings all his experience into play and bowls a yorker on middle. Krunal jams it out to the bowler. Can he finish it well? Just 4 from 5 balls.

Right in the hole. Not a lot the batsman could do with that. He jams it out to long on for a run. Only singles so far in this over.

Tim Southee To Hardik Pandya
Outstanding effort! This is the kind of effort you need in such crunch stages. Colin saves three for his side. This is full and outside off. Pandya slams it towards the long off fence. It had boundary written all over it but de Grandhomme dives to his right and makes a brilliant stop. A single taken. 50-run stand up.
