- 20:55 (IST)LSG vs MI Live: LSG need a good finishIt has been topsy turvy for Lucknow Super Giants but they have grabbed the game by its neck after the quick two wickets.

LSG have no option but to take wickets now and end the fightback before it takes a solid form. MI 142/4 after 16.1 overs
- 20:49 (IST)LSG vs MI Live: 15 overs goneMumbai Indians are 132 for the loss of four wickets after 15 overs. This is not where they thought they will be after Cameron Green and Suryakumar Yadav were going great guns. However, the run rate has suffered massively and they will need a good end to the innings now.
- 20:41 (IST)LSG vs MI Live: MI struggling to score bigThe two wickets have proven to be MI's bane as the loss of Suryakumar Yadav and Cameron Green has hindered their run rate quite significantly. The bowling has also been quite consistent till now and after 14 overs, Mumbai Indians are 126/4 against Lucknow Super Giants.
- 20:32 (IST)
- 20:27 (IST)LSG vs MI Live: Naveen strikes twice!Big wicket for Lucknow Super Giants and it is Naveen-ul-Haq once again. A deft slower delivery from the pacer and Suryakumar Yadav is dismissed for 33. The fast bowler was not content as he castled Cameron Green for 41 and this is bad news for Mumbai Indians. What a return for LSG as MI are 105/4
- 20:20 (IST)LSG vs MI Live: MI on top after 10 oversMI lost Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan early but after 10 overs, the five-time champions are well and truly on top against LSG. Brilliant knocks from Suryakumar Yadav and Cameron Green have taken the side to 98/2 and suddenly, the LSG bowlers are faltering with their line and length. This can get very interesting!
- 20:13 (IST)LSG vs MI Live: SKY on fire!Cameron Green has scored the more number of runs in the partnership but Suryakumar Yadav looks the better of the duo at this point. A short pitched delivery from Mohsin Khan and it was promptly displaced for a six over fine-leg. Both batters have been explosive for the side and on a pitch that will assist bowlers, a target north of 180 will not be good news for Lucknow Super Giants. 9 overs gone and MI are 89/2.
- 20:09 (IST)LSG vs MI Live: Spin attackRavi Bishnoi was handed the ball for the eighth over and this pitch is clearly favouring the spinners.

However, no major damage as of now as Mumbai Indians 75/2 are after 8 overs against Lucknow Super Giants.
- 20:04 (IST)LSG vs MI Live: Strategic Time-out7 overs gone and Mumbai Indians are 70 for the loss of two wickets.
