Overs16.1
Score159 - 4

U Yadav to R Sharma, SIX! Umesh struggled with bowling at the death in the last game and his struggle continues here. He offers a gift. A full toss on leg stump. Rohit Sharma helps it on its way. The timing is such that the ball goes all the way, over the fine leg fence.

Overs15.3
Score148 - 4

C Anderson to R Sharma, OUT! No, it has not! Pandya is well short. Rohit comes down the track and mistimes it straight down the ground. They complete one and they go for the second. Nasser Hussain on air mentions it is not a good idea as Woakes is quick to the ball and fires a throw to the bowler. Anderson collects it well and takes the bails off. The players appeal, they do not look that confident though and the umpire goes upstairs. Replays show that even though Krunal has dived, he is short. So an innings in which we saw a lot of mistimed shots comes to an end. Pandya has been dismissed against Bangalore for the first time in this League.

21:25 (IST) Apr 17
OUT! Krunal Pandya run out for 15. Mumbai Indians 148/4 in 15.3 overs
21:24 (IST) Apr 17

Another run out appeal at the non-striker's end. Has Krunal's dive saved him?

21:23 (IST) Apr 17

The physio has come out to check but he now seems fine to continue.

Overs15.2

C Anderson to R Sharma, A yorker on off, the delivery which should be bowled at this stage. Rohit Sharma can't do a lot with it as he jams it out towards the bowler. Krunal sets off for a run but is sent back. While he tries to turn back and make it to his crease. He collides with Anderson and has hurt his hand.

U Yadav to K Pandya, FOUR! Not convincing but Krunal will take it. On a length around middle. Pandya swings at it but it goes off the inner half through backward square leg for a boundary. 15 from this over, they have now surely decided to put their feet on the accelerator.

Score138 - 3

U Yadav to R Sharma, FOUR! Yadav has not got it right on his comeback. This is short and outside off, asking to be hit. Sharma says thank you and cuts it over point to bring his fifty up. His 33rd in this league. The captain has finally come to the fore. 10 runs from the first two balls of this spell from Umesh. He got two wickets in his first one if you remember. Cricket is a great equalizer.

FIFTY for Rohit Sharma off 32 balls. Mumbai Indians 138/3 in 14.2 overs
21:16 (IST) Apr 17

Umesh Yadav is back on.

21:14 (IST) Apr 17

Second strategic break signaled! Mumbai have lost Lewis but are in a good position at the moment. This is where they lost the plot in their last game and they would not want to repeat it. They would want to cash in from here. Something above 200 is what they will be looking for. Bangalore on the other hand will look to restrict them below that and if they are to do so, they will need wickets.

Y Chahal to K Pandya, Pandya tries to do exactly that. He tries to go over covers but once again he mishits it. It is up in the air for a while. Kohli from covers comes running in, dives but could not get to the ball. A good effort from the Bangalore skipper, a dot to finish.
