Right then! 152 is what Bangalore need to chase and they would have taken this score at the start as they have enough firepower in their batting and top of that, Glenn Maxwell is back in the mix as well. Mumbai have made a decent recovery and the onus is on their bowlers now to do the job and get their first win of the season. Stay tuned to see how the chase unfolds...
Harshal Patel is up for a quick chat. He says that he will take 7 runs off the last over. Adds that the ball was drifting through the air and he was keeping an eye on his arm speed. Tells that it is important to maintain the arm speed. Mentions that it is a good wicket to bat on and chasing 152 shouldn't be any problem for them, if they start well in the Powerplay.
Things didn't quite go well for Bangalore at the start as the bowlers leaked some runs and found it tough to get the breakthrough but Harshal Patel did that job in his first over itself. After that, the bowlers just turned the game around and found quick wickets. They put a halt to the flow of runs after the Powerplay and capitalized on the pressure they created with regular wickets. They were in the driver's seat but will be disappointed that they let the game slip away towards the backend. It's still a chaseable total and Bangalore would be hoping to make it three wins on the trot.
Mumbai were off to a great start and enjoyed a great Powerplay as both Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma scored freely and stitched 50-runs for the opening stand. Rohit Sharma was looking very good but fell after the Powerplay. And after he fell, Mumbai started to lose wickets in heap, and from 50-1, they fell to 62-5. It all boiled down to Suryakumar Yadav and he played a lone battle to get Mumbai out of the rut. He played a gem of a knock and it is only because of his knock that Mumbai have a respectable total on the board. They might be still 15-20 runs short but given how they were after 14 overs, they would take this score any day and would be confident of defending it.
If Mumbai have reached this score, they only have Suryakumar Yadav to thank for. What an innings we have just witnessed! He has played a superb knock under pressure and has made sure to take Mumbai past 150. Bangalore bowlers were terrific with the ball but they will be disappointed that they leaked runs after taking 6 wickets at regular intervals.

The Ball Tracker shows that the impact was in line of the stumps. But it is umpire's call on wickets hitting. Bangalore retain their review.
Bangalore have opted a review for an LBW. The third umpire first checks if it's a waist hight no ball but it's a legal delivery as the ball is dipping low. UltraEdge shows no bat involved and the Ball Tracking shows that it is umpire's call on wickets hitting. The on-field call was NOT OUT so it will stay the same.
