4.6 overs (1 Run) 1 run, that is flicked off the back foot for a run.
4.5 overs (6 Runs) SIX! Sensational Sharma! He's that one alright! Length ball, on the stumps. Rohit Sharma has probably made his mind about going big, he backs away to the leg side, takes a couple of steps down the track and then smokes it over long on.
4.4 overs (0 Run) Beaten! Length delivery, just outside off. Rohit Sharma looks to punch it but misses.
4.3 overs (3 Runs) Length ball, outside off. Yadav punches it past covers. The fielder gives it a chase and cuts it down just before it reaches the ropes. 3 runs taken.
4.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Deft touch! Back of a length, outside off. Suryakumar Yadav waits for it and then runs it down to the third man fence.
4.1 overs (0 Run) Length ball, on the stumps. Pushed to covers.
Kagiso Rabada is into the attack.
3.6 overs (6 Runs) SIX! This is even better! A one-handed maximum! Tossed up, on off. Rohit Sharma leans into it and hits it inside out over the extra cover fence. His bottom hand comes off the bat but he still clears the rope.
3.5 overs (0 Run) Shorter ball, outside off. Rohit Sharma comes down the track and punches it to covers.
3.4 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! He missed the sweep shot in the last over of Ashwin but not here! Full ball, on the stumps. Rohit Sharma gets low and sweeps it towards the fine leg fence.
3.3 overs (1 Run) Tossed up, outside off. Yadav punches it uppishly to long on for one.
3.2 overs (0 Run) On off, pushed to covers.
3.1 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Yadav gets his first boundary thanks to a thick outside edge! Loopy ball, outside off. Yadav goes for the drive but gets the thick outside edge. The ball runs past short third man and to the ropes.
2.6 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Boundary of the last ball, but it is still a good over for Delhi! Low full toss, outside off. Rohit Sharma gets under it and drills it past the extra cover fielder and to the ropes. 7 runs and a wicket from the over.
2.5 overs (1 Run) Slower ball this time. It lands on a length, outside off. Yadav shuffles across and pushes it wide of mid on for one.
2.4 overs (0 Run) A touch fuller this time, right on the off stump. Suryakumar Yadav stays in his crease and pushes it to point for nothing.
2.3 overs (1 Run) Lands it on a length, just outside off. Rohit Sharma runs it down to third man for one.
2.2 overs (1 Run) Back of a length, outside off. Suryakumar Yadav pushes it past covers and gets off the mark.
Suryakumar Yadav is the new batsman in.
2.1 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Marcus Stoinis strikes and gets the dangerous Quinton de Kock! This was a poor ball and Quinton de Kock would be disappointed with the way he has got out here. Short of a length and outside off. Quinton de Kock doesn't move his feet and goes for the drive. Ends up getting the edge to Rishabh Pant behind the stumps, who takes it with ease.
1.6 overs (1 Run) Flatter ball, down the leg side. Quinton de Kock works it down to short fine leg for one.
1.5 overs (1 Run) Fuller ball, around middle and leg. Clipped away to mid-wicket for one.
1.4 overs (0 Run) Loopy ball, on the stumps. Rohit Sharma misses his sweep and gets hit on the pads. Ashwin puts in a strong appeal but the umpire is unmoved. The ball was probably sliding down leg stump.
1.3 overs (0 Run) Carrom ball, lands on a length, on the stumps. Sharma taps it to covers. Quinton de Kock wants a single but he is sent back by his skipper.
1.2 overs (0 Run) Loopy ball, outside off. Sharma goes for the sweep but fails to get any bat on it.
1.1 overs (1 Run) Starts with a flatter ball, on the pads. De Kock misses his flick and is rapped on the pads. The ball rolls away and they sneak in a leg bye.
Ravichandran Ashwin to bowl from the other end.

0.5 over (0 Run) Hit on the pads, but probably going over the stumps! Length delivery, lands on off and nips back in. It goes through the bat-pad gap and hits Rohit Sharma high on the back. Marcus Stoinis and Rishabh Pant put in an appeal but the umpire doesn't give it. They decide not to review it.
0.4 over (2 Runs) Shimron Hetmyer does well in the deep! Full ball, on the pads. Rohit Sharma flicks it towards the mid-wicket fence. Shimron Hetmyer runs across and cuts it off before it reaches the boundary. Two runs taken.

Rohit Sharma, Mumbai skipper, informs that there is one change, Adam Milne misses out and Jayant Yadav comes in. Adds that dew plays a factor towards the end of the game and that the pitch looks a bit drier. Says that one needs to focus on the basics to do well on such a pitch.
