So, chasing hasn't been easy on this wicket. Mumbai defended a similar score in their last game against Kolkata and would believe that they can do so again. But Hyderabad have fire in their batting too. With Bairstow set to open along with the skipper, it is going to be an interesting chase. Join us for the same shortly.
Bowling from Hyderbad has been top-notch in this game. Shankar was the man who provided the breakthrough after a solid Mumbai start. And after that, Hyderabad bowlers never allowed Mumbai to break free. The two Afghans, Rashid and Mujeeb did a fine job. While Rashid didn't get a wicket, Mujeeb got two big wickets in de Kock and Kishan and punctured the Mumbai batting. Khaleel was excellent in his comeback. Bhuvneshwar Kumar was hit for a few in his 4 overs and the last 2 balls that went for sixes can be a difference in the end.
After deciding to bat first, Mumbai got off to a very good start as skipper Rohit and de Kock added 50-plus. Rohit fell in search of quick runs! Suryakumar Yadav couldn't do much as he fell cheaply too. De Kock played a 40-run innings but took 39 balls to reach there and got out at the wrong time. Kishan too failed to get going. Hardik, Pollard and Krunal struggled in the death overs but Pollard managed to find the fence on the last two balls of the innings to take Mumbai to 150.
A couple of biggies on the last two balls means Mumbai will be not too disappointed with the score on the board. They have defended a similar score in the past and would feel they can do it here again. But top bowling performance from Hyderabad.
