... The Chase...
Right then! Mumbai chase well at Wankhede and they'll hope the openers give a good start to them. Lucknow have a good bowling lineup as well. A cracking chase coming up.
Kieron Pollard is up for a chat. He says that he has not bowled in the last couple of games, but he bowled a good spell and they have done well to restrict them to 168 on this wicket. Adds that they need to bat smart here, the boundary is small on one side and dew also should help them. Mentions that they have played some good cricket but they haven't got over the line, but they need to win since they owe it to the team and to the fans.
KL Rahul was the man for Lucknow. No one other than him supported from the other end and the skipper with a lone effort helped his team put in a decent score. Wickets kept falling at the other end. The 58-run partnership with Pandey helped Lucknow steady the ship but after that, it was all Rahul. He brought up his second ton of the season but his team was a bit cautious in the play.
Mumbai started brilliantly and piled the pressure in the first 10 overs. They bowled good lines and lengths and took wickets at regular intervals but it was Rahul who stood strong against them. It was his knock that makes Mumbai chase a healthy total. Kieron Pollard was the pick of the bowlers who took two crucial wickets in the middle phase. With the overall run, Mumbai will not be that disappointed with the score and will fancy chasing it.
KL Rahul continues to be the nemesis against Mumbai. Two centuries for him and both came against Mumbai this season. A decent score for Lucknow but the way KL Rahul walked back, he looks disappointed with the overall score as he knows, he was not well supported from the other end.
