Quinton de Kock is the Player of the Match! That's all we have from this match but don't go too far away as the second match of the evening is about to begin. Hop tabs and catch all the action. Cheers!
Once again the Mumbai bowlers were the focal point! After a troubled beginning in the first 10 overs, they made a resounding comeback and didn't allow Rajasthan the desired finish. Rahul Chahar and Jasprit Bumrah were brilliant in their spells and must be commended for playing a big role in keeping Rajasthan down to 171. During the chase, Quinton de Kock finally spent some time in the middle and regained his lost touch. Plenty of positives for the defending champions along with this victory.
Mumbai return to winning ways! They have pulled off a clinical chase to end their losing streak. It could have been a tricky chase had Rajasthan picked early wickets in the Powerplay but that didn't happen as the pair of Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock put on a strong opening stand. That put Mumbai in good stead and then the stand between Krunal and de Kock almost put the chase to bed. Towards the end, Kieron Pollard flexed his muscles and overhauled the target with 9 balls to spare.
18.3 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Pollard puts the finishing touches in this game! Mumbai are back to winning ways! On the pads, Pollard clips it through fine leg. There is no one in the deep. Convincing win for Mumbai, they WIN BY 7 WICKETS!
18.2 overs (1 Run) Full toss on middle, de Kock hits it to long on off the lower half for a single.

17.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Brilliant from Pollard! Low full toss, almost a yorker. Nothing wrong with the delivery. Pollard is just too good. He goes deep in his crease and wrists it through mid-wicket for a boundary.
17.1 overs (6 Runs) SIX! How easily has Pollard done that? Shorter around off, Pollard smacks it over covers with the minimum of fuss for a biggie.

A very full ball and this time it is pace on from Mustafizur Rahman. Krunal swings but misses and the ball sneaks under the bat to disturb the stumps. 26 needed in 20, are Rajasthan still in this or is it too little too late?
16.3 overs (0 Run) Slower ball bowled into the surface. Krunal looks to smack it through the leg side but misses and gets hit on the thigh pad.
